I don't much care for Gwenevere's incubators, they don't show the different stages of cracking and growing wings, and you have to drag and drop every single one of your dragons onto it. If TJ would ever fix the CDN, I would be using that.

True. It is a pain. Probably why I haven't done one yet, lol.

I was finally able to pick up another split egg a few days ago. Hopefully it turns out to be female. I missed a few papers, gold, silvers, dinos, etc, and such though! I, also, picked up a vine, a pebble, another split, and another that I forgot. I "force" hatched the vine and the pebble. I put the third split and the pebble hatchling on the adoption page. I am waiting to see if my current vine is an alt, my skywing and water to grow into adults, and my second split to hatch. So, I am going to see if I can go snag a couple more eggs!

I've been wondering, how do you force an egg to hatch? I've seen it mentioned several times today on the DC forum, but I can't seem to see how it's done...

When it gets close to hatching, go to the actions menu and select kill egg. There is a slight chance you may actually kill the egg (especially if its too close to hatching or it has soft shell) but most of the time it will force the egg to hatch.

Indeed! I would recommend that if you wish to "force" hatch your egg that you wait until it is in the 4.00 range (up to 4.99, but I theorize that the less time the better your success) or less. There are three possibilities: you can force hatch and it will die, it will hatch and you will catch it, or it will hatch and scamper away. Most of the time, for me, I will catch it. I did have one run away from me and one died, though. (I did not know of these until experience!)

Oh, I see. I think I'd be too terrified to lose the egg, lol. I think I'd only try it on my mint egg right now since I don't really care for that breed anyway. Who knows? I still have 5-6 days on all my eggs anyway. Thanks for the info.

Im still waiting on my hatchlings to grow up...I cant get any more eggs until then

So far 10 dragons and only one male...

That is reverse to the truth. Forcing a egg is extremely dangerous, and there is a slim chance it will actually work. Nearly everyone on the Dragon Cave forums say not to try it, as each person has only successfully done it once or twice.

Not so. I have done it successfully every single time except for once. Most people on the forums have *never* done it, and most wouldn't, but it is not high risk.

I have four dragons and four eggs...how can you go about looking at other people's scrolls without having to click on their direct link (like in the signature)? Is there a place to just browse scrolls? I know I have to have ten dragons to start rating descriptions, but I'm just wondering how to view scrolls at this point.
