What do you mean by this exactly? I've been playing for almost 2 years now.

Prices for dragons are usually determined by how common their genes are via breeding. Like dragons with basic genes are known to be cheap, while dragons with genes like Petals or Butterfly are much more expensive.
It also varies on the breed as well. Bogsneaks, for example, are new so the prices for them are high. An easy way to determine which breeds are pricey and which is not, is to check out the FR Encyclopedia on the site. I can't post the link because I'm on my phone, but it lists the breeds by how common or rare they are.
Easy example: Tundra dragons are much cheaper than say, Coatl dragons.
Most people go by the dragons genes however. Unless they're Bogsneaks, then the genes don't matter because they're expensive being a newly released breed.

gem genes are "rarer" (read: more expensive).
crystal, facet, petals, butterfly, circuit, and glimmer are all gem genes. the rest are treasure genes, which you can buy in the treasure marketplace. (likewise, you can buy gem genes in the gem marketplace - but they are, again, ridiculously expensive).
there's also skink, spinner, poison and toxin, which are genes made only with Baldwin, but usually go for above-average treasure gene prices.
colors factor in a lot as well. some people will pay a lot more for XXX, XXY/XYY or XYX color schemes, depending on their preference.
there are also some "crummy" treasure genes imo that just look too messy on a dragon and aren't really all that popular. smoke, crackle especially, ripple, bar, piebald, etc etc....it really all depends on how they're used, but without the proper color scheme they usually fall out of favor with the public.

Weren't Gembond and Iredecent pretty hard to get also? Or am I just confused So it's basically Rare genes+ pretty colors = good dragon, right? Gembond isn't very popular among the site, so it usually lowers the value of a dragon--as with Crackle. And yes, that's the jist of it lol. Plus the rarer the dragon, the higher the price. An easy way to price a dragon is to go to the Auction House and try to base your own off the dragons listed there with the same genes/breed/colors/etc. Same goes with items as well

You can though. It just has a higher possibility for the babies to share the less rare trait(s). Same goes with breeds. If you breed a Fae with an Imperial, you'll most likely get Fae hatchlings because they're more common.

So if I bred a Wildclaw with the Petal/Butterfly/Stained genes, with a Guardian that has the Poison/Toxic/Basic genes, chances are the babies will have the Guardian's genes and be Guardian hatchlings.

search keelan rosa fr and click on the breeding card link. it'll give you the exact percentage outcomes for breed / genes with the breeding pairs and everything.
