    You have to use hybrids. The supposed best combo for a Malachite is Metal/Willow.

    I've been having a problem with friends not showing on my friends list. They gift me gems every day, and for the past few days I've gone to return gems to them and they aren't there....:/

    Have you updated the app? My friends list usually disappears when an update comes out. Once the update is done it reappears.

    Gold: any combo of metal and fire (brass and fire is best)
    Silver: any combo of metal and cold (cold and mine recommended)
    Seasonal: any combo of air, plant and fire (firework and plant recommended)
    Sapphire: rain and mountain
    Sun: any combo with cold and lightning bred between 7am and 7pm
    Rainbow: any combo with four elements, is a fail possibility of sapphire (seaweed and firefly recommended)

    If you google dragonvale sandbox you can get other combinations to try.

    Good luck!

    Air/Mine is also a good combo for Silver. With Cold/Mine the fails are always 10 hrs. With Air/Mine it's possible to have shorter fails (5 or 8 hrs) although a 14 hr fail is possible too. Cold/Mine has only two possible outcomes: Mine or Silver whereas Air/Mine has 5 possible outcomes. I haven't seen anything saying that because there are fewer possible outcomes that your chances of breeding a Silver are higher with Cold/Mine. So my strategy has typically been to try and minimize the fail times so you can breed more often. I've actually been working with both combos and so far no Silver for me.

    Nope. Gemstone Dragons each have only one combo to get them.

    You can go to DRagonvale sandbox and get the combos I forgot what I used. I thank someone put it on here. I wish I could give you one. Good luck.

    Sounds like you have a rainbow cooking. Sorry you can't give gems; you aren't the only one from what I've been reading.
    You can try to make a rain dragon using air and mud or fog and mud. That way you can try for the sapphire.
    Good luck :)

    Wow! Congrats to Andy and Jazbo for early Sapphires, nice going!

    Hey the next time someone gets a giant dragon, snap a screenshot - I'd love to see it. Hasn't happened to me.

    Korvaire - Best wishes for a successful surgery and speedy recovery! You seem to have a good outlook and attitude about it. :) Will be pulling for you, let us know how you're doing when you feel up to it.

    And welcome to all the new posters, great to see so many newbies joining us!

    Btw I'm still lacking a Silver.. (and Sapphire of course).

    No way! That's awesome! :D
    I'm SO tempted to use gems to speed up and try again but I'm saving up for the Hibernation upgrade.

    Thanks Foxy! Not as lucky as Andy with a second one though! Lots and lots of 6hr 24min fails! At least there's no crystal in the mix this time! I really want this egg for display as I think it's the prettiest so far.

    Good luck with yours, hope you get it soon :D

    I haven't got silver yet either, or oly bronze, or seasonal...........I spent all of August, when I had wifi, trying for a second peridot that never happened :(

    I got my first sapphire and my first crown on a dragon. wow not sure i would do that with all of them that is a lot of money.and food. I do like the ball better and unless it helps us I am keeping the 15 level. I hate the mustard color anyway. To those who have not gotten the sapphire are silver Good luck.I used many gems and many fails to finally get them.

    Mountain/Rain is the combo for Sapphire. I have one. Trying for the display egg now. In August I got the Peridot somewhat quickly but then it took several weeks to get the second egg for display (got it the last week.) I'm pretty sure Sapphire will be the same.

    Just read through like 10 pages during the weekend. I can't believe so much has happened!

    Korvaire: Good luck with the surgery and get better soon! It won't be the same here without you here on the forum.

    Congrats to everyone on their Sapphires! You all know who you are (Jazbo, Andy, jtfields)! Sorry if I missed anyone! And good luck to those that the Sapphire didn't come to yet!
    I got one knocking at the cave's door last night, so I just need to try for a display egg now.

    Foxy: I didn't get a Silver yet either. Thank goodness it is not a limited dragon or else I would flip. :D

    Good Luck with your dragons there all a pain lately but they have to make money some how to give us the upgrades so atleast we do not have to buy them just the gems if we want to speed them up.I wish they would lift that level cap again can not do much of anything but breed and rearrange.
