Do you recognise this?
As a die-hard FFS fan and avid forum contributor, after hundreds of attempts you finally manage to breed an ultra rare, you want to scream from the roof tops but instead decide to scramble to the forum (where people actually appreciate and understand the joy) to post about it in ehhhhhh..... which thread?!
Well, that certainly stops you dead in your tracks: there really is no consolidated single thread for posting about ultra rare breeding successes. Sure, there's an ancient thread about the Crystal Unicorn (i.e. https://forums.storm8.com/showthread....corn-%28NEW%29), but that has long since been banished to the obscure realm of "Fantasy Forest Story - Creature Library" pages, where hardly anyone will see it.
Besides, it really is only about the Crystal Unicorn, and not about the other ultra rares.
So, what to do? Hijack another thread? That's what has been done often so far. Search through the same 'Creature Library' archive in the hopes of finding a thread about the very animal that was just bred? Not ideal.
Just last week I went through this when I *finally* bred my first gem-animal: the Emerald Dragon! I ended up hijacking the Deadwing thread for posting about it. Earlier (August) I had *finally* bred a Golden Retriever, and hijacked a thread about the gem gifting frequency of the Treasure animals. Not really the right thing to do, and not very satisfying at all.
No.
In order to keep such rare, ehhhh "ultra rare" moments of joy nicely separated from the other threads, I would like to open up one single thread where everyone can share their successes at BREEDING an ultra rare. The purpose of this post is to establish precisely such a place.
It is not intended for posting about BOUGHT ultra rares, nor about the ultra rares that are obtained through the Storybooks, nor for posting about any other animals than the ultra rares.
Yes.
This IS a "prestige bragging" thread, and that's precisely what we need at times to keep us motivated to go through the slow grinding process of seeing tens or hundreds of fails before FINALLY that 24, 41, 42 or 45 hour timer appears. :P
I hope Kooky Panda stickies this thread. It is intended for giving us all a spot for sharing these so seldomly occurring moments of sheer FFS joy with the rest of the world, or well, at least within our own nice little appreciative community. :P
As a kind of "allowed animal guide", as well as having a handy reference for the newer players. Posting about having BRED any of the following animals is allowed:
Treasure:
Animal: Formula(s): Timer: Treasure Toucan Currently: none.
Was: Ocean Owl + Vinotaur, or two Crystal Unicorns24 hours Money Badger Currently: none.
Was: Armordillo + Hareon, or two Crystal Unicorns24 hours Golden Retriever Currently: none.
Was: Terrorier + Gold Lion, or two Crystal Unicorns24 hours Prize Pony Currently: none.
Was: Fennec Shox + Sea Horse, or two Crystal Unicorns24 hours
Note: on November 30th we received the heartbreaking news that the next day, i.e. December 1st 2015, ALL Treasure animals would be removed from the shop. At this moment in time it is not possible to breed any of the Treasure animals. I sincerely hope they will be returned soon and/or that we get new Treasure animals to breed for.

Enjoy, and may we all have good luck at breeding ultra rares!!!
