im planning to try that after fireworks (fire + Water) but im getting blazing dragon for the 3rd time...

so, should i just try chrome + scroch hopefully the result will be either fireworks or ruby?

any other possible ways to breed firework? my breeding cave is empty... trying to get tips... thanks

Chrome/Scorch has been getting us a lot of Fireworks while trying to get that Ruby dragon. So it is a good combo to try. As for the Blazing fails (which do happen), it's a great way for generating coins or leveling up shrines.

I got both of mine with Air/Fire (and in reverse order), but then I got a lot of Fireworks when I put Chrome/Scorch in the EBI. Good luck!

Oh, yeah, I must have misread your conversation
I know I saw 13th in the reply, and assumed it was July. Just looked back and found it. That's why I replied with Friday the 13th...
I guess i'm closer to being early than late, so happy early birthday to you both!!

That's right!
With 3 gem dragons in the same habitat you get a gem every 2 days 7 hours.
Previously I also reported that the countdown to next gem stops when the gem is ready and won't start till you collect it. As if maximum capacity was 1 gem. That's not the case. Countdown to next gem starts again after a gem is generated.

Hi foxy, I think you only get 1 gem per habitat, you just get it quicker if you have 2 or 3 dragons in it try moving you dragons around and you'll see your countdown reduce as you put more dragons in.

So no Ruby yet?

It's cooking . Also got a fireworks, trying for Gold.
I just got back into it after concentrating on the shrines.

Anything else seasonal except Ruby ?

I sped up my 48 hour Ruby fail and it is a Gold dragon, so I have that (although it will have to go in hibernation once it hatches until I level up and can add the habitat) but still no Ruby dragon. I have another Firework fail in one of the breeding caves.

Oh thanks! In that case I'll keep both of the little buggers. Pearls are my only doubles.. somehow I missed how this gem collecting thing works. Lol

I just wanted to say that I love the Gold dragon.
He looks like a heavily armoured samurai. Even his "face" looks like red samurai masks with white tufts of hair for moustache and beard. I can't link pictures but if you Google "samurai masks" you'll know exactly what I mean.
The only minor thing I can criticise is his movement. When he walks he looks like a wind-up toy trying to walk on slippery ice. When he reaches the limit of the habitat he still tries to walk for a second or two before turning around. Its a little funny, but I forgive BFS because this is one of the best dragons they have released so far. I hope Silver and Bronze (if they do come) are as majestic.
I named my gold dragon Shogun.

Great name. I'm 24 away from hatching mine, can't wait. I agree it looks like one of the best so far. It's exciting that most of our 48's are turning up Gold... perhaps a new shift away from Rainbows. Much appreciated by me.
Haven't searched backwards, but has anyone else picked up a Crystal fail? Don't remember what Gold combo it was.. . probably Scorch/Iron?
