made these studying cat genetics over the past 2 weeks!
i felt like there weren't enough visual guides of cat genetics so i went ahead and made some simple ones, my main references were Sparrow's Garden the website, Sparrow's Garden the blog, Messybeast, and The Little Carnivore.

this will very likely be an unpopular opinion, but...
genuinely, we do NOT need more than 2 ancients a year. gosh, I'd go as far as to say we don't need more than 1. staff is clearly rushed. they're clearly putting too much pressure on themselves, with all the gene errors, and the poorly conceived auraboas. it doesn't help that they're forcing limitations on themselves (why does the bounty of the elements need a word limit if it REMOVES IMPORTANT CONTEXT???), and shooting for releases that "go well" with irl or in-game holidays. auraboas could have waited until january, if I'm being brutally honest.
just because they don't have to draw gobs of apparel, they still have to draw heaps of unique (and already existing) genes for each new breed, many of which are line breaking. maybe that's just as bad as creating lots of new apparel?? and then older ancients get completely ignored. I feel like they're divvying their energy in really bad ways.
all I can imagine is that fr hasn't been bringing in the cash they need, hence the "need" to release THREE BREEDS in 2023, as well as completely ignoring users when we ask, hey, maybe make it so we can get rid of the big icon for the sale on gems. at any rate, more pressure on their small team of artists is not the way to go...
idk. has me nervous. I suppose I could turn off adblocker for the site in the meantime, but gosh. I hope that the site doesn't take a bad turn due to financial issues.

I love how the token "wingless" breed has two big sails that could be mistaken for wings, how the giant serpent breed that lives in ultra-dense jungles still has wings, how the underwater eel breed also needs wings, oh and gaolers too, they needed wings... for reasons.
FFS, I know that you have to put the secondary somewhere, but you really could have come up with more creative ways to do it than just slapping wings or wing-like structures on everything. Scale patterns, coat/mane patterns, horns and bone growths/plates, contiguous dorsal fins, feather/fur/chitin/quill layers, etc. literally anything else.

more genetic things i noticed that are kinda awks for me
flamescales. where did they come from ?? are they also like animus powers and pop up randomly, or is it like a nightwing powers thing ? goes for both mudwings and skywings
nightwing powers. is it completely random which power a dragon would get ? do some families specifically get mind reading instead over prophecy powers ? is it complete magic bullshit ? maybe ! ALSO, WHY AND WHERE DID THEY START LOL
silk and hivewings. do you think some hivewings would have more silk features ?? or maybe even a nightwing throwback occasionally, one being born under a full moon and having strange visions ?
i know the books are for kids, so everything isn't totally thought out, but also, it's good to be aware of faults in media + don't care + hyperfixation got me good w this one

Scientists shed light on the 25-million-year-old genetic twist behind why humans and their ape relatives lack tails. This groundbreaking revelation exposes the long-hidden genetic culprit responsible for our tail loss.

So I was updating my tag list for my blog today and found myself looking at just what a massive list of genes there are now, and thinking back to when I joined FR shortly before the 1st Anniversary. At that time these lists ended at ripple, seraph, and crackle, and there was only one eye type so it didn't even have a name.
I can still remember how excited I was when current came out and I could add it to a ripple-seraph spiral I had recently purchased. And how much I loved smoke compared to the handful of other terts available at the time.
These days we're kind of spoiled for choice with the possible genetics for our dragons.
Also, I'm amused to note that most of the genes I typically avoid using are ones I had too much exposure to in those first few years.

Scientists have found genetic variations associated with human bisexual behaviour for the first time, and they are linked to risk-taking behaviour and producing more children.  The University of Michigan-led study, which was published on Wednesday (3 January) in Science Advances, analysed data from more than 450,000 people in the UK’s Biobank database of genetic and health information.

Not to get too personal but I’ve spoken before about how I’ve never met my biological father, I know very little about him. And I’ve never been one of those people who wanted to connect with biological family, I’ve never had that impulse, but recently I realised that every time I’ve filled in a form which asks about my family medical history I’ve just been guessing. Like my biological father’s family could have high levels of diabetes or cancer or some genetic condition that doesn’t materialise until you’re in your 30s and I would have absolutely no idea. And that is a really strange realisation

shoutout to rockbreaker for reminding me of that time I had a dream that undel finally hosted a stream to show off the hatchling art for surges (which turned out to just be the male art but smaller and with bigger eyes) and when I tuned in she was designing a new tert for them that was just a bunch of fried eggs floating ominously around the dragon
