ive almost lost interest in my lil bugger and i feel so bad for it. like how can i make shure i wont just abandon him? i would really hate to see myself doing that.i feel realy bad as it is for not even touching him in a week, but i was sick, and i was working on other stuff. any thing i can do with my wyrm? like idk what to do with him. also if i decide to breed him, would it be wrong to ask for a fee?

I find that the community aspect has really helped me keep a good interest in wyrms. Really one of the biggest contributers to me being hyper over them is I was lucky enough to get a couple wyrms for some of my local friends so I have folks I can just go "wyrms wyrms wyrms wyrms wyrms" at. *laugh*

The boards I find usually have contests every now and then for folks, and there's even a group picture activity going on in the artwork thread. Doing things like trying to make plans for breedings I find also helps keep enthusiasm high since it means you not only have the chance to plan and look forward to another wyrm, odds are you have a person who will be excitedly planning with you.

As for fees, it really is up to indvidual situation. If you feel your breedings merit a fee or sorts, there is no wrong in asking. Especially if your wyrm is one that it's expected there will be high demand. I'm not personally one for fees, but I think that's more because the excitement of seeing what happens from the breeding is enough for me. XD

They tend to be random and are usually found in the Announcement section of the forums. There was just recently a halloween picture/photo contest...so I imagine with MFF coming around there probably won't be another for a lil bit. But I wouldn't be surprised if one shows up around christmas-time. XD

I am probably not the best expert of which wyrms are sought after...my favorite type of wyrm is the common marine type. But some species do seem to be more popular than others.

Is there any particular kind of breeding that you think would be interesting to you, if you only have one? Like a purebred or some sort of hybrid? Most of the time a lot of folks like to try to see if there is a particular colour or trait combination that they think would be really neat. :3

5 breedings makes yours uncommon. However the only breeds that really could warrent a -fee- would be rares and ultra rares. However then a fee is most likely drawn artwork-photos of the offspring-promised breeding of the handler's own wyrm.

Asking people to pay you money is sort of frowned upon.

There will be a Xmas contest coming up, and for the following year a large one durning the Spring Equinox.

Have you registered your wyrm yet? And you can get /request breeding from other people's wyrms. You are not limited to only your wyrm!

Join us in chat, watch the streams, we have lots going on in the forum, take a look around!
