I like to get two of each, both limited and permanent. The permanent because I want two if I need to breed a certain combo in both cave/island. The limited in case I want to make more of them in the future. Once I have the two, I make an egg pedestal. If I happen to get a third one of a limited dragon, I do keep that one just in case I accidentally sell off one of my breeding pair lol, so like I do have a third bone for example (but not, for example, a Lunar Eclipse because even if I sold one accidentally, I could always make another by breeding with Moon). Gemstones I just get one to hatch and one for a pedestal.

OP, it might be a good idea to get 4 of each dragon like you are considering doing. A post lower down talks about how one player will be breeding four of each dragon - two level  10s and two level 20s - for use depending on whether they are trying for a regular or a rare dragon. Could be a good idea.
