0 Air Habitat
Home base for the two pairs of Air and Sandstorm dragons who continually generate gold coins to buy food. They're rarely home as they are constantly breeding. Very prolific dragons. Makes sense to locate it near the Breeding Caves to minimize the commute.

This made me lol.

Thanks. That Means a lot. Can't wait to get 50 gems so I can increase my hatchery, and get another island so I can re-arrange the islands. I was thinking about having Christmas Island. Add a bit Of Aust. And a Chinese island.

I want to do a chinese island too but I'm holding off on any major decorating for now till ive finished my shrines and got all islands which will be a while yet lol x x x

Christmas island sounds awesome. I'm so disappointed to have missed out on Bone and Reindeer! Christmas is my favorite holiday (and not just because my wonderful wife bought me an iPad - on layaway for months paying for it without my suspecting a thing).

And boo to you - I was trying to see how many posts I could get in a row without anyone interrupting!

Lmao you are funny tommy and you got a fab wife x

OK, while I'm waiting for the Airs and Sandies to do their thing, I'll take a moment and update you on the thinking behind another one of my islands.

Love it.

Try the blazing mud combo tommy it's getting everyone a rainbow at the mo x

Oh, trust me, my blazing and mud pair have sore ... parts.

Can anyone help me with any combos for Fog and Sandstorm please

Fog is water and air that's easy to get sandstorm is a little harder well a lot actually but air and lvl 4 mud has given them also air and quake ( that's how I got my 2 ) BUT beware as that gives the dreaded 24 hrs crystal arrgghhh ,you may have to try many times for the sandstorm x goodluck xxx

Oh dear maybe try using some of the mud and blazing eggs you get from your original pair or have you sold them have a go at the gene theory with them as it was my third gen pair that gave me a rainbow and fourth gen pair that eventually gave me panlong : thumbs: hope you get one soon x

Poppy from your topic I understand that each earth habitat gets its max income in a little more than an hour. But that means you have to be there to collect! You never sleep? And did you try to synchronize with your breeding procedure?

Thanks for everybody's contributions to this forum. I have taken what I have read and updated my Breeding Combo List and even added the Bluefire dragon to the list.

and a personal Dragonvale update....

I was able to get all my shrines to silver, but no plans as of yet to go for gold. I have enough coins to get the 100 million 6th island, just have to get to level 30.

After trying for 5 days straight, I have finally managed a 12 hour breed time with cold and scorch. Presumably this will be my second Frostfire!

I am still trying for my second panlong and second rainbow, but once I get those, I will have doubles of every single dragon (except the bone, which came out before I started playing).

I will begin to try for these using the mud(lvl 4) X blazing combo.

Once my breeding goals are complete, I can begin to reformat my islands and set up some major coin collecting operations.

My favorite island that I will keep as is, is the island dedicated to my colloseum.

That looks really nice. I just started re-organizing my islands as well. I'm still on lvl 19, so can't get my 4th island yet - I'm getting so anxious, haha!

And, just wanted to say thanks again for maintaining the breeding combos list. :thumbs:

So my son has got a second 48 HR he was trying for panlong with blazing lvl7 and mud lvl 4 so I'm guessing it's a rainbow as I havnt heard any other combo coming from this he's pleased but also worrying that his time for getting a panlong is getting shorter! awww really wish I could give him 2 of mine ,think I'm gonna have to buy him an app voucher soon too so he can buy himself the EBI as he spent his last few pounds on buying the gem tree lol , so he's doing well anyway the problem is he docent look after mine now when I'm busy so I'm losing out on cash X x x

Btw you guys can add him if you like his GCID is coxy 26

Way off-topic: anybody know anything about rheumatoid arthritis?

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a long-term disease that leads to inflammation of the joints and surrounding tissues. It can also affect other organs.

Poppy from your topic I understand that each earth habitat gets its max income in a little more than an hour. But that means you have to be there to collect! You never sleep? And did you try to synchronize with your breeding procedure?

Great question and something I've given some thought to. My current situation enables me to visit the park regularly, even at night. I've posted here before about setting a balanced approach that can be adjusted according to your situation. It's the Tortoise & Hare approach: the Pans are the Hares and Rainbows (and to a lesser degree, Moons & Suns) are the Tortoises. The Hares run fast but as they reach their limit every hour, they require a lot of maintenance. The Tortoises, however, plug along at a slower pace, but their $1M limit requires virtually no maintenance.

Tortoises: Slow Producton/Low Maint <----------------X----> Hares: Fast Production/High Maint

Thanks to the HC, you have the ability to set the dial to a level appropriate to your current circumstances. This is a long term strategy as there is time and cost involved in swapping habitats. Currently my Hare team is comprised of seven Earth habitats filled with three Pans each and four Cold habitats stocked with Bluefires and Frostfires. The Tortoise team is comprised of only six Rainbows, two Moons and two Suns. So at the moment I have it set fairly aggressively. If I don't have the gold shrines by the time I can get out this bed more (start rehab and PT in three weeks) then I will dial it down.

As to matching the Air & Sandie breeding to the Tortoise & Hare scale, yes it makes sense to do that. Where I have the dial set and the actual frequency with which I'm retrieving coins determines the breeding pace. So it can vary between one and two hour cycles. But the primary control is by the Tortoise/Hare scale.

I wish there was a little Cupid walking around the islands like they had Santa at Christmas time.
