Sorry for the double post, but wanted to let you know I've adopted the white grendelchi, Grendel_Man!

So I've got this grendelchi lady in mind once Prince Winterberry passes in about two days. Would anyone be up for hatching a mate for her?

I don't think I've raised one of those before! I'll hatch up a male

Anyone needing a mate for their Creatchi? Cinders has slipped off to the big sleep.
Also, I don't know which egg hatches what for the first gens. if anyone has a diagram, that would be awesome.

If you've raised three or more creatchis successfully, you'll be able to figure out what's in a first gen egg by holding the mouse over the egg in question.
Unfortunately you're only on two creatchis right now, so it's more or less random.

Ah, that makes sense. And explains things! Well, if anyone needs a non first gen mate, I'm your gal!

Does anybody fancy hatching a mate for Lollipop Confirmed For Flat? |

C-Rex, I'm free to hatch a mate. Should I grab a female norn 1st-gen for Lollipop? |

So, I've just hatched a gray female Grendelchi. Any eligible males available? Or is anyone interested in hatching a mate for her?

If you don't mind pairing highgens Brendo also needs a mate. If Silverscales' and Hildebrandt's pairing is any indication, the most likely result is more gray grendelchi eggs (barring black or white showing up). Neither color has a lot of available eggs at the moment (two for gray, one for purple).
Failing that, Boudica has about five days left and I'll be free then.
However, I've noticed that there's both a red female egg and a green male egg available, which means brown grendelchis if they're paired. If someone wants to help me pair them up I might go for that instead.

Going to suggest that whoever adopts a Creatchi next gets a male Ettinchi or female Nornchi. I don't think the Grendelchi population needs any help at the moment.  |

Well I just so happen to have a creatchi vacancy since Powdered Snowroll has moved on to partying in the great beyond. If there's a solid mate for someone already lined up I'm happy to adopt whatever someone needs!

In keeping with adding another creatchi color to my creatchidex, I have my eye on a girl ettinchi when my current grendelchi passes either tomorrow or the next day. Would anyone be willing to pick up a mate for her?

I can do that Mioonktoo! My creatchi just passed away from old age, so I'm newly freed up.

My grendelchi Babbling Brook is gonna need a mate when she's older, if anyone's up for pairing with her! |

Welp, I just adopted one of Stormlight's daughters. Anyone interested in taking on a male Grendelchi to be her mate?

I just grabbed a male grendelchi egg. Not sure whether to pair with Rainfall or with Babbling Brook, I think Rainfall is the rarer color but Del asked first, so what do you think? |

Well, kilnarak just adopted a male Grendelchi (Hellebore) and he's Babbling Brook's brother. Maybe Hellebore can be paired with Rainfall, and you can stick with your original arrangement. |

I didn't arrange anything, I just saw male Grendelchis where missing; but that sounds like a nice idea to me . |

On the other hand - and I just realized this - if you breed the siblings together, it's a surefire way of getting more aquas, and leaves a first gen free to breed with the gray... so it really depends on how everyone feels about Creatchi inbreeding.  |

Is inbreeding even possible? I thought a protection against that was already coded in.
Though I never tried it out, I just assumed that much.

I think at least one set of siblings has bred in the past.

I've never had a gray grendelchi, would breeding a blue and gray keep the gray coloring in offspring? Otherwise, I think its up to Namiraja on who to pair Sneep Snoop with. |

Generally speaking, secondary colors are always dominant over primary colors (unless it's a pairing between Gen 3 or below creatchis, in which case it's a crapshoot). It's one of the reasons why pairing high gens with first gens is preferable to pairing two high gens.
On the other hand, it seems like gray is actually a pretty dominant secondary color. In this case, it might not matter.

I got a meet request from Hellebore, so it looks like we might be pairing him and Rainfall.

For future reference, when it comes to preserving colors pink and gray probably deserve the most priority. They need black and white creatchis to be bred, and black and white creatchis are complicated to obtain (since they appear at random when breeding). Meanwhile, all the other secondary colors can be obtained by pairing first gens, which while still not reliable are much easier to obtain.
On that note, for my next Creatchi I'm considering one of three options:
1. Adopting the last purple grendelchi to breed more purples, as all the other purples were bred out through pairing with gray grendelchis (or just failed to breed).
2. Adopting this red grendelchi and seeing if I can breed her with a first gen for more purple or brown grendelchis or reviving the orange grendelchis (or just continuing this pure red line).
3. Adopting a first gen grendelchi (again) and seeing if I can pair it with another first gen, just to see what happens.
4. Just not adopting a creatchi immediately, instead waiting to see if anybody else needs a mate.
Char still has the better part of a week left, so I've got plenty of time to think it over. If anyone's interested in any of these, let me know.

It's unlikely, but possible, that Rainfall's sister is a purple. I forgot to check the count before she was laid. Otherwise she's most likely gray.

Okay, since Delcron asked and I'm confused, one last time:
Hellebore + Rainfall and Sneep Snoop + Babbling Brook to keep the siblings from breeding, or
Sneep Snoop + Rainfall and Babbling Brook + Hellebore for a better chance to keep the gray line?
I don't really mind which one, although with Grendel Mans explanation preserving gray might be a good idea, I guess?
I'll ask kilnarak to take a look at this post, too ^^ |
