The 1st Egg is the Dragonvale LeapYear Dragon Egg
Reindeer (left) and scorch (right) got me one on my first try.
Yessss got it with this combo thanks:)
I just bred Reindeer and Scorch on the EPI and got a 30 hour (1 day, 5 hour, 31 min) breeding time. Any idea what this might be?
I also got that, it is a blue moon dragon
I just got 30 hours as well, was it topaz?
I must have tried blazing and swamp 50 million times but I just got loads of rainbows. I gave up on that one but thanks for the advice my friends almost did a backflip!!!
got it with lava and lichen first try
This game to two papers in a row. Not that I’m complaining, but I really want a Leap Year! Thank you though I didn’t have a paper!
I have GEM TREE and do GEM 4 GEM DAILY.

Grr! It’s the only dragon I’m missing!
200 gems used for breeding an I get one Rainbow, a Moon, and FOUR Equinox Dragons, yet this one is STILL eluding me!
Anger!!! They should have turned the ability to breed rainbow/moon/sun off!!
What u use to get equinox?
I used the Crystal/Blue Fire to get the Equinox Dragons. I think I also got one from the Blazing/Swamp combo. Crystal/Lichen is giving me another Moon and two Blue Moons thus far; I’ll try the Bloom/Love combo next.
Best combo for me is bloom and love dragon (level 15&level 11 on breeding island) , works two out of two try. Hope this helps.
I know right?!?!? I have my SECOND FREAKING blue moon dragon incubating right now, and I don’t even have a MOON dragon for petes sake! I mean, geez! It’s like the dragons that r super rare that you DON’T want are the ones you get!
I’m sitting with my third Blue Moon in my incubator and got an Emerald Dragon from Lichen/Crystal. I also got another Rainbow. LoL! I don’t think this game wants me to have this dragon.
The good thing is if you get two Blue Moons you can breed a Moon after the event. Same for two Solstice Dragoms equalling a Sun Dragon.
Do two Rainbows have a chance at Leap Year? I have several Rainbow Dragons.
Voloyal, you actually cannot breed two blue moons to get a regular moon, you end up with another blue moon.
FINALY got 14 and a half hour breeding time hope its a leap year paper + crystal!!!!!
Iceberg/Poison finally worked for me on its first breeding try. Finally! I have all of the dragons officially!
I just used lichen and crystal and I’m getting third leap year dragon. I would like to get a emrald dragon
so ive been trying to get apocalypse using cactus mine. so far ive gotten a blue moon dragon AND a leap year dragon from it. but no apocalypse lol
Magnetic and water got me 2 apocalypse dragons. Doesn’t matter which combinations I’ve tried, leap and rainbow eludes me. Please add me, $(TATTY)$. Have 2 slots left to give out gems daily. Will return, the favour to whoever sends the first 2 each day.
I got two rainbows in my first six tries using mud/blazing in the normal cave while trying to get panlong, which has still eluded me. Add TBTJT gem for gem.
Just got this using air and firefly trying to get a butterfly dragon.
Just tried a crystal and lichen level 10s on EBI. Has delivered me a 31 hour wait….prob one oh the gemstone dragons. No leap year still.
Might b an emerald. Only gem with 31h ibreed time.
Annie
…and may the odds be ever in your favor!
Just got it twice with cactus and mine trying an apocalypse dragon, add me masterieon
Epic island -> did mountain and poison and got 14:30. only one that is that time is Leap Year. Keeping my fingers crossed. 😀 gems for gems: anyutik2662
Please help me I want a leap year I tried seaweed and firefly be cuz that’s wat my friend did but when I tried I got a rainbow instead u say blazing and swamp but DV guide says seaweed and firefly please help me decide which combination to do!
I would recommend Crystal and Lichen. Since Tuesday, December 18th I have got 4 Leap Year Dragons with that combination. In the regular cave I would recommend using Level 15 dragons.
You can also breed the firefly and pollen to get the leap year dragon.
Got another leap year while trying for an apocalypse with copper and paper.
I go mine with happiness
Blazing and swamp 20-25 hours (didn’t chech right away). What do you think it is?
My seven year old used mountain and poison first try and getting a leap year dragon
Can you use rainbow and leap year to get another leap year or will you just keep getting rainbows
60 % rainbow 40% leap year ya thanks
Quicksilver & Ash (Both 15) trying for Plantinum (again)…4th one since they opened up the breeding. Can’t get Apocalypse, Butterfly, Sapphire or Clover either…keep getting Sun and the Eclipse pair of dragons.
Cactus + Luchen = 1st time sun 2nd time leap year 3rd time is equinox. Worked for me..
I can not for the life of my get this dragon. I’ve been trying for this one and equinox and no luck… I’ve tried all the combos suggested and still nothing…..
Breeding for blue moon sonic and iceberg got my 1st leap year on the 1st try
I just got leap year with ironwood and rain
Yes! Love and Panlong yield a Leap Year Dragon on first try!
Does anyone else have specific days of the week when epic breeding radically increases?
Was trying to breed the ruby dragon with chrome and scorch and instead I got a leap year dragon!!!
Awesome! I got my leap year dragon today as well and what I think is a blue moon and what I think is an opal! I got a second equinox last night. Luck? I’m new to this but still as excided. Add me- my name is “the son of the swarm”…I’ll give you gems.
Macenstein, please add me on game center. My names Mousam1
As I was trying to breed another dragon, leap year came out by putting glacier on the left and poison on the right.
I just bred a leap year dragon with pollen (left) & Scorch (right) on epic breeding island. pollen is a level 10 and scorch is a level 14.
Just got my leap year dragon with a blazing mud combo.
Add me on gamecenter, id is “donaldwhite”
Magnetic lichen in respective order U get apocalypse And leap year try this combo
Got 30 houres with crystal and lichen
I don’t know what I’m doing right but I am getting my 3rd leap year dragon without trying
Oh and I think I did even use any of these combos
I got it while trying for love using flower+storm in the EBI
Confirmed, thank you!
Got leap year with cactus and iceberg.
Got a Leap Year with Cactus and Steel!!
Brass+Moss=Leap Year
Reindeer and scorch first try =) I think it’s better than using crystal b/c if you accidentally get another crystal it will take 24 hours…waste of time
cactus + obsidian = leap year.
Just accidentally got another one with lichen and magnetic, which is also the same combo used for apocalypse
I got a leap year when I bred copper and paper while trying for the apocalypse dragon. I hot it first try! I know that mix is not on the website, but since I got it that way, some of you might get that lucky. So either way its a win win! You get an apocalypse or a leap year dragon!
Sorry I meant I *got* it.
I just bread crystal lv 11 with lichen lv 11 on upgraded EBI so time is altered … I got an incubation time of 12 hours 24 min. Hurry for 13 gems. What is it? I already got apocalypse but would love another … Hoping for a leap year …
It’s a Gift Dragon.
While I was trying to get a moon or sun dragon with iceberg and sonic I somehow stumbled upon a leap year dragon on my seventh go. I found this very strange as on the breeding guide app i got, it showed that it wasn’t possibly. Why has this happened?
My sister got 2 leap year dragon used rain10 and mountain10 but when I tried on my iPad that combo always fail .-. Add my Game Center haaaaadi13 :)))
How does everyone get their dragons on their first time? I try over and over and it’s getting really frustrating because I just can’t breed anything! :'(
I’m a little mad I did swamp and blazing and got 48 hours oh well at least it gave me I think my 2nd rainbow
Hey guys, nothing was working for me, tried every combo described here a few times and nothing, I was getting frustrated but I saw that breeding Gift dragon with Air had about a 15% chance to give you Leap year so I tried it on the regular cave and I got it on the first try. Air left, Gift right both level 10, hope it helps, I’m trying to get a second one, good luck.
crystal + lichen for me 😀
Did swamp and blazing got a 24 hour time any ideas what it might be
Got it with blazing and mud and equinox with that too!
I just got it while trying to breed an equinox dragon (blazing+rain) in the regular breeding cave.
I got it with a blazing and rain too, also trying to get an equinox! Lol, well I was going to get it anyways since all the dragons are back for a while. Friend me, I’m Ultimato1337 ;3.
Try Panlong and Brass to breed equinox, it worked on the first try
