Yay! I just did this too, and voila!! 16! Thanks Mmclowes & Deeneez! I had just put myself in daydream breeding mode too ... thanks sofalv!

Grats on your steel, cazblu! I'm still trying for Steel#2.

Sofalv - Your daughter will absolutely get her Bloomy, I know it! I feel it! Just keep trying and suddenly there it is, so with all her determination she's due to get one. Many of us get that elusive dragon after posting the frustration.. or rant..lol. After many Bloom tries, Plant 10/Storm 11 and Clover 10/Storm 10 were my winners.

I have dreamed about this game. I was working so hard to get the dragons my husband said why do you have to have all of them and I told him I love the dragons. I use to collect dragons. I just have very little patience. I collected dolls you had to wait until they made them to get them sometimes over 6 months. I am better at than I use to be but I am older to. I hope everyone gets the dragons. The only one I do not have beside Dodo is reindeer one I would love to have.

As you have said in the past, you have been pretty lucky with your dragon breeding.....gotta get a challenging one now and then ....

I like the sound of daydream breeding......bit like auto pilot when breeding the same combo type....I must say that I have also tried growing up chrome fails to have at least part of the combo with fresh dragons a fee times....that seems to have worked for a few of us in the past also...patience is what we both need

But I had my really hard one with clover!!!!! I tried hundreds of times and finally had to give in and buy it!!!!! I want an easy one now!!!!!!.... Please picture me stamping my feet like a petulant child at this point!!!!!!! And SCREAMING VERY VERY LOUDLY!!!!

I feel so much better now

Oh, Timeless! I wish we could trade or gift dragons, if only for the rares that people have missed. I'd give you a Reindeer if I could...
Oh, and yes I have dreamed about this game and I still collect dragons That's how I found DV, was searching the app store for a game with dragons in it. As luck would have it, it was only a couple weeks after DV launched. It's amazing to watch the number of players grow so quickly. It must be really frustrating for latecomers to have missed some of the rares.
In the spirit of full disclosure, I have set my alarm to tend to the dragons, but mostly, since I'm a light sleeper, the iPods alert that something has hatched, etc, wakes me so I can tend to them. It's no wonder I'm always tired!
@Sofalv, this is why I'm so into autopilot daydream breeding myself! Keeping my fingers crossed for your daughter to get her Bloom!

Ouch Jazbo! I heard your screaming all the way up here in Phila, USA!
Surely this level of ranting should inspire a Dodo success! You are cracking me up and starting my day with a chuckle. I feel your pain. Brings back memories of Sandstorm & Frosty- I finally got them and you WILL get your Dodo.

@Girlpower- sending you wishes for your Dodo, too! I haven't had success with a second or for a second Steel, but I'm grateful for at least one of each. The earlier Metals were so easy I think they spoiled us!

I am home sick today and all your posts have made my day! Thanks for sharing everyone...and good luck to all. I tried bumping up my earth and chrome but still no dodo.

THat is so sweet thank you I would do the same for people who have not gotten the ones I have. I would get up at night to check my eggs and still do with new dragons. I just got a dodo with chrome and earth in the epic cave and than I got a 4hour after and now I have another 16 hour in the epic cave. With chrome and earth in that order.

Good luck every one fingers crossed .

Long time lurker first post today! Love this forum it is so supportive of everyone. I have all dragons apart from moon, dodo and bone(started too late for that one, roll on October!) and bought none with gems and bred without the EBC, now saving all my gems from the colleseum to buy it so I can breed high earners.
I thought I'd join so I can have an occasional rant about the moon dragon which won't come my way, as this seems to work so well for you all
I need friends to give my 3 gems away to, haven't got the tree but 3 is better than none! (GC id happyhacker100)
