Could be. I just noticed my Firefly display egg has a Fire pedestal instead of Lightening. Usually an egg gets the pedestal of its first element. Didn't they just change the element order of the Firefly to Lightening/Fire? I wonder if I breed another and display it if it will have a Lightening pedestal or if the Fire pedestal is a bug.

My game will not let me buy gems and they owe my some took my money did not give me gems crashed. I wrote them Thursday no one has said they would fix it.


I seen what my husband was telling me about DV he read it wrong it was some other app that caused a problem not Dragonvale and they removed it. DV is here to stay I hope for a long time.

It was posted on Sandbox on 7/26:

Uncommons won't appear in 2-element combos unless basic/pure parents are used. For example, Metal + Earth can make Iron or Scoria, but Iron + Earth can only make Iron. Combos with 3+ elements are not affected.

On May 25 they gave Firefly a new egg and did change it to Lightning/Fire.

My Firefly is on a Lightning pedestal (not sure when I bred it), you are lucky to have one on Fire.

I am currently trying Air/Mine ever since Silver was announced and all I got are Steels. Note that I did want a second Steel and a third one for display, but now it's just ridiculous! I'm going to try switching to Snow/Metal to see how my luck is

No luck with Cold/Mine either. This Silver is pretty challenging I'll admit. Good luck everyone!

I have a Silver breeding in my cave using Chrome and Cold. The dragon is very rare with a probability similar to Gold, 2-4% likely so it will be very rare and require many fails.

GP and anyone else still trying for Gold treasure, try Bluefire and Metal because this will have a chance to produce both Gold and Silver. Only negative with this pair is the 24 hour Forge fail.

I will keep trying for a second Peridot for the rest of the week because I should be able to breed a second Silver by breeding a Gold and Silver.

Safe week for everyone along the US Gulf of Mexico coast. Go away or weaken Isaac!

Thank you for mentioning the Gold/Silver breeding pair I was going to check it out if I ever got a Silver but probably would have forgotten about it.

My thoughts are also with the people on the Gulf Coast. I love to vacation on the panhandle and wish everyone there a safe time.

My thoughts and prayers are with those in the path of this storm. My niece and brother in law lives in Florida. My family in Ga. So I have been watching it since Friday.
