In a world of unified breeding seasons, does size matter?

[Krin]

Cogswell (my Great Tesla Antique) has been nosing thru the listings and noticed that most of the other Tesla's seem a bit 'petite'. And there is only one other Antique, a Tea-cup.

I've explained to him that we might not find a zaftig girl with big sturdy flywheels and gears right away...

*Chomp!* "OW!!!! Stop that Cogswell! I need that toe for walking!"

So, if he's really careful, can he successfully mate with a tea-cup sized female?

Cogswell .｡oO {{What! You want me to what? With... How??? Good grief! She's smaller than my tail feathers, you perv!}} *bite!*

"Ow! Knock that off or I'll let my nieces see you."

If he can, what size offspring will they be able to have? Standard? Great?

Thanks,

As of right now, the only other Teslas are the tea-cup size, which is unfortunate for poor Cogswell.
However, we have a special token available that some handlers already have, but is also sold in conventions and sometimes on Etsy.
It's the 2x Size Token.

What this does, is allows a person to, for example, breed two of the tea-cup Teslas, and use the token to create a Great Wyrm sized baby.
This is probably the best way to get a girlfriend for Cogswell.

I'm not sure when/if any more Teslas would be released, but he can only breed with Wyrms within one Species/Size of him, so... Standards, Great wyrms, and Leviathans.
Breedings between mixed-sized Wyrms always produces the larger of the two sizes (with the exceptions of the "Mini" size, which can either go down to a Tea-cup, or up to a Standard)

Cogs well can make great, standard or Levithian sized fetus wyrms

So Cogswell can breed with a Standard Tesla??
If so, awesome! I plan on, hopefully with enough money, to get a standard Tesla this Winter Breeding Season. If it all plans out, I'd be more than willing to let him breed with it since I'll be making it a female. :3

I absolutely adore Cogswell and want a baby from him or at least bigger sized Teslas.

I second the one above me! I have a teacup tesla, and I REALLY want a standard. If I can come up with a way to get one, I'll do it for the summer breeding season.

I know we have the 2x tokens...
Maybe somebody can magic up a few x1/2 tokens?
They magically shrink a Wyrm for one breeding.
Thereby letting a male sire as if he was one size smaller,
and females brood a clutch one size smaller.

I talked with HMS.
She says you can use a 2x token as a 1x if you wanted to use it on two Tea-Cups and breed a Standard Tesla.

[KenziBoo95]

Alright sounds like a plan! I haven't made any plans to do a standard Tesla yet because its still in the works. I forgot I needed a 2x token to be able to obtain a Tesla from two teacups to a standard, so yeah I need to get that token first. XD

Hmmm, that's good news for many people!

But not so for Cogswell and I.

I'd really like a way to breed "down".

So few people own the larger sizes that it might not have come up a lot yet, but I feel that I've adopted a white elephant. All these people are having fun playing the breeding games, but I can't because not that many people will want a Great size nor could they afford to adopt one.

I registered because I heard about how much fun the breeding was and now I find myself completely isolated with very little hope of seeing Cogswell ever have offspring. I can afford standards, but the Greats are a rare and limited purchase. To be left in a situation where I can do nothing but leave him sitting on the shelf is heartbreaking.
