Every single dragon can be obtained in-game without the use of gems. A common example of a dragon that many people think is unobtainable is the Air Dragon, but this dragon can be obtained by breeding a Fire Dragon with a Water Dragon.

'''Q: Other people's combinations for certain dragons don't work for me! Why not? And how can I breed a ______ Dragon?'''

A: Different people get dragons using different combinations. Sometimes reversing the order of dragons helps, so instead of using Earth (left) and Plant (right), put Plant on the left and Earth on the right. You could also try using hybrid dragons. If you’re unsure on how to get a particular dragon, or just looking for a different combination to use, have a play in the sandbox here. The Rare Dragon Breeding Charts may also be helpful when trying for those tricky rares, such as the Rainbow, Sun and Moon dragons.

Q: When do my dragons change appearance?

A: The most drastic physical change occurs when a baby dragon become a juvenile dragon on level 4. Its size becomes a lot larger and its entire body changes significantly. On level 7, the appearance of the juvenile dragon slightly changes and becomes larger when it becomes an adult. On level 11, the dragon becomes larger in size and an orb of their primary element shows up above its head, which is replaced by a golden crown when they reach level 20.

Q: Do any decorations have any beneficial purpose?

A: Aside from rewarding minimal and more visitors, they do not provide any benefit.

Q: Is there any other ways to get gems besides paying for them?

A: Yes, A friend may gift you a gem every 24 hours. Each player is given 3 gems to gift daily, so forming a group of four with three other active players can guarantee that each day you receive three gems. This can be changed if you have a Dragonsai Gifting Tree which you can use to send 6 gems instead of 3. For more information, please, visit the Gems page.

Q: Apart from giving free gems to a friend, is there any other way to earn free gems?

A: Yes, Gems can be won from the Colosseum.

'''Q: Why is there a plus/minus next to my dragon's income? What does it mean?'''

A: You are referring to the effects of the elemental boosts. Elemental boosts have one element they will boost, adding to the gold/min (the green plus) and one element they will hinder, reducing the gold/min (the red minus). The elemental boosts affect the entire island they are placed on. Hybrid Dragons have two elements, and some Limited Dragons have three or four, so watch what dragons share the island with the boosts you place.
