Breeding Questions.

[AnimeAmy]

I've been doing some reading on breeding and had some questions. Not sure if they have already been answered somewhere and I missed it.

During the breeding season my boyfriend and I have a pair that we would like to breed together an acid leaper and a Shrieker. Is that possible to do even? I haven't gotten too much into reading about hybrid type wyrms.

Also I know that you get two clutch mates from a breeding BUT can those be different sizes? I wanted to breed mine up to a standard size and he is okay with another tea cup.

Yes! So long as they're breedable, you can breed them together! I'd love to see the combination.

You can have two different sizes, but you'll need a size token. You can ask to use someone's size in exchange for something (a breeding, cash, etc.)

That's a size token - if you look at my account you'll see a buttload of tokens before my wyrms. You can get tokens at cons or during online sales. The 2x size token allows you to breed two teacups and have a standard baby. Alternatively, you could breed a standard pair and use that token and get a great wyrm, and so on and so forth.

If I bred a standard to a tea cup, the resulting babies would be standards.

Yes, you can breed wyrms of two different types!

As for the size matter, you would need to use a size token (x2 token) to make one of the clutchmates a different size. Also at current (and someone correct me if I am wrong) you can only go up in size, not down. So example if you use a size charm on clutchmate from a teacup x teacup breeding you could only make that clutchmare standard size or great size. Not mini, or teaspoon.

LoL, they beat me to it.

Basically, a teacup and teacup (or standard and standard, or great Wyrm and great Wyrm) breeding will create a baby of the same size, UNLESS a size token is used. IF however at least ONE of the breeding pair parents is a bigger size, the baby will be bred 'up' to the bigger parent. (Refuses to think about teacup mommy and standard daddy egg laying cuz....owch.) ;3

YOU MEAN AMEYTHYST AND PUPPY RIGHT? Teacup mommy, mini daddy, STANDARD OFFSPRING!

Ill offer my size token if you need it.

That would be amazing! I was just about to say I needed to be on the lookout for size tokens now .


Thanks so much everyone. That makes sense.
Just to clarify since I am breeding two tea cups does that mean I need two individual size tokens (one for each wrym) to get a standard? I want to make sure I have it all down way before breeding season starts so I am not scrambling to find tokens when it hits .

Nope, you just need one for your clutchmate.

Nope! You need just one x2 token for one Standard baby. In this case (and most cases, except for the +1 and gender-bender tokens), the token affects the individual baby, not the parent.

I'm gonna chime in here with the hybrid breeding with an important thing to remember: you can create a hybrid wyrm of any two Types, but not with Teslas. They don't create viable offspring when bred with anything that isn't a Tesla, so you end up with a clockwork fetus.
