Everything listed here has been tested unless otherwise noted, in that the pairs do not refuse each other; this is also true for holiday pairs, even if it’s only relevant if refusal should accidentally not be turned off (or breeding out of season).
Note that I am no longer collecting anything, but you can always ask me to breed things for you, I am very happy to help. ❤️

* I don’t do stairs, so all my single-gender species lineages are checkers (or arcs, or other decorative evengens).
1 The caveborns here are from the event biome introduced in 2017. (In my first year of Dragon Cave, I briefly tried to, then failed to catch any Christmas dragons. Henceforth, I didn’t try to catch any event dragons – trying to catch them was a chore I didn’t want to bother with until 2011.)
2 Only one of my caveborn Ribbon Dancers is from 2010; the other is from 2017. (The original one I have I caught for kicks back in the phase mentioned above.)
3 I originally caught (lakym) and (spkfl). Given the drama around these sprites I wanted nothing to do with them, though, and traded them away to people who had missed or screwed up the drop. I am not interested in ever having any of these. Please do not offer me Soulstones. From my understanding, the original artists would prefer the concept was no longer on the site, so I try to keep them out of my Dragon Cave experience. (That said, independent of my feelings about how it was handled, I appreciate that other spriters pitched in their time to try and patch up what otherwise would have been a potentially a bigger problem – this is not a criticism of those artists.)
4 …since one massive event dragon drama is apparently not enough: Winter Magis were my absolute favourite holiday season dragons. Then in 2021, the original artist was cancelled, which involved having all of her art purged from site in blatant disregard for whether the community wanted this or not. As a matter of fact, I don’t like the new Winter Magi sprites, I certainly don’t like how this was handled (I may not like the person in question, but I like cancel culture even less – I’m a proponent of not conflating art and artist and believe this hurt the community far, far more than it hurt the artist), and I would like nothing much to do with Winter Magis any more.
