"She has her Mothers Eyes" in prismacolor pencil by MissBambie:



Dragcave is a website at www.dragcave.net  where you can adopt and raise up to four eggs at a time.

A large amount of eggs drop on the hour unless there are too many abandoned eggs. Three eggs usually fall every five minutes. Once you catch an egg, you should try to get people to click your egg so you can get unique views, views, and clicks. Be careful though, because too many clicks with not enough views or too many clicks with not enough unique views can give your egg a soft shell (SS) and it might die!

To prevent SS, you should hide your egg. (Go to Actions>Hide) When the SS warning disapears (usually in a day), then unhide your egg again.

Once your egg gets a hole and it has a minimum of 3 days 12 hours left (IT WILL NOT HATCH BEFORE 3 days 12 hours remain), it turns into a hatchling!  The same rules apply to the hatchling again. Don't allow it to get too many clicks or it will get it sick and could die.  Hatchlings grow wings when they mature and at 3 days 12 hours will be able to grow up into a adult.

When hatchlings mature, you don't need to post them anymore, but you must view them at least once every 8 weeks or they will lose their name.

Okay! So that is the basic dragcave know how. If you want to know more, just pm me or pretty much any of the regulars on here. Happy egging!!

>>> HEY!!!  READ ME!!! <<<

*Posting in an announcement page will generate 1000s of views and could kill your eggs.

*If you're having a problem with too many repeat views, then try putting the link to your scroll in your sig, instead of posting the egg pics.  That way, people only view the eggs when they go to click them.  It should relieve the soft shell issues.
________________________________________

Alternate vines, sicks, geodes, and alternate blacks are never in an egg drop and can only be gotten through breeding, or the abandoned page.

Paper and chicken eggs are very rare.  They make up a very small portion of the total number of eggs that are offered, so people try to click for those first.

Dinosaur eggs are also rare, but less so.  They are the brightly colored eggs with the white spots.  They can be yellow, red, blue, or green.

Gold, silver, split (two-headed), vine (dark green), and Skywing (aqua swirly) eggs are somewhat rare.  They occur more often than chicks, dinos, and papers.

HATCHING EGGS...

Noticing a crack in your egg?  That's a good thing!  The stages of hatching are:
Single crack
Multiple cracks
Multiple cracks with split
Small hole
Large hole
Hatchling  (At this point, you can name your dragon)
Mature hatchling  (At this point, the dragon's gender is revealed)
Adult

** There is a minimum of 3 days 12 hours required before an egg can hatch, no matter how many clicks it gets!! **                       
** There is a minimum of 3 days 12 hours days required before a hatchling can mature into an adult, no matter how many clicks it gets!! **       
Good luck hatching your dragons!

I have condensed the opening messages as I think most everyone knows about the dragons by now and if not, everyone here is pretty knowledgeable and helpful....
