    The Soulhammah bids you all good fortune in your quest to breed
    the latest gem yet he has frustration deep in his soul…

    The Soulhammah loves nothing more than a day at the races, but his
    dragons grow uneasy…..

    “Why do but a few get compete?”

    In a word,fellow breeders, discrimination.

    The Soulhammah has studied the problem and sees but one solution
    There MUST be more events at the track.
    What of the lowly rust dragon? The beautiful butterfly who can never
    show his worth?

    Please think of the dragons that cannot sprint freely like the sonic or the clover

    I am soulhammah

    • Nanajan says:

      I got 1st place with Clover on Ulster Meadows track. And Sonic on electric skies track. I think matching the right dragon to the right track is very important
      Good luck. Jan

  6. Stazy1378 says:

    I won the medow race with a butterfly TWICE.

  7. Erfan says:

    Hey doc does it matter what level they are cuz my cactus is level 11

    • As long as they are over level 4 and breed able I have never found level to matter in any combo.
      – The Doc

      • Sloppy Tuna says:

        lol once again you’re absolutely correct (as usual)

        TO Erfan: the only thing the level of the dragon has an effect on is the amount of money the dragon will make and leveling up the shrines. It has absolutely NOTHING to do with breeding or aiding in breeding or increasing your chances of getting what you want.

        • Erfan says:

          Thanks for the great help I just hope I read this before I raised another cactus dragon ๐Ÿ™

          • Erfan says:

            Oh and my cactus was in the fountain of youth does that change anything ? Doc oc this is a question for you

  10. Maddy says:

    I got a 24 hour time. Will it be a peridot or something else?

  11. unknown says:

    can some one tell me another way to breed this dragon? Just in case cactus and crystal doesnt work.

    • Willow says:

      If you buy some of the peridot tributaries (the olivine thingie in decorations) and post it near your breeding cave, it should help. I had a level 10 fountained crystal on the left and a level 10 non fountained cactus on the right. I currently have a 31 hour time. ;D Macenstein works. And there’s this nifty app that is similar to this site. I double check things on Macenstein, but it’s pretty accurate too.

    • Sloppy Tuna says:

      the ONLY way to breed the peridot is crystal and cactus – and having decorations near your cave only helps make the place look pretty it does absolutely nothing to increase your chances of getting the peridot

  12. JOROYJO says:

    Hi guys! add me JOROYJO got one crystal cactus.

  13. K1ngpingu says:

  16. Luke says:

    How do you breed a peridot dragon

    • Sloppy Tuna says:

      cactus and crystal is the ONLY way there are NO other combos. And don’t get discouraged keep breeding them until you get one, that’s what I’m doing. And don’t listen to any morons who tell you they got it using ANYTHING else. BFS only uses one combo to get the gem dragons they put out and CACTUS CRYSTAL is without a doubt the combo. Good Luck ๐Ÿ™‚

  17. Bd123456789 says:

    Hey doc no matter what I do I cannot get a gold Olympus, gold, or peidot dragon what should I do? And do u have any tips on how to get more gems without buying them?

  18. Lori says:

    Please add me. I have a gen tree and no one to send to.

  19. Sarah says:

    CRYSTAL AND CACTUS!!!! I havent tried yet cause im still trying for da olympic dragons but thats the combo said to work

  20. Thomas says:

    Got mine with Cactus / Crystal on Breeding Island. Took a few tries but finally got it. Trying in Breeding Cave as well but haven’t got one there yet. My Egg Island has every egg that I know of so far on display. Check them out if you like.. Also check out my Olympic Island ๐Ÿ™‚ Thomin8r on gamecenter.

  21. hi says:

    Just got peridot with crystal and cactus both level 10 in regular breeding cave on 2nd try! YES!!!! Wait I have no gems to speed it up…….s**t.

  22. Mibugnu says:

    Just got a peridot gragon on my second try with cactus and crystal! Please add me, gem for gem! My username is MIBUGNU!

  23. Kimhunterz says:

    Cactus and Crystal is a good combo. I got Peridot at first try.

  24. Emily says:

    I sure hope this works! I’m gonna try it!! I’ll notify you guys of it works or not k?

  25. Lou says:

    Doc, does it matter which one is in right or left slot? Cactus and crystal? Or crystal and cactus?
    Thanks!!!!!

  26. Emily says:

    My sister Got it 1st try but I’m on my 1st and 2nd and both were 12hrs….

    • Angelica says:

      What was the outcome of your 12 hour wait? Because I bred cactus and crystal not to long ago and it’s taking 12 hours /: which dragon did you get from it?

      • Don K. says:

        12 hour breeding time is a Moss Dragon. 14 hour breeding time is a Tree Dragon.

      • Sloppy Tuna says:

        this is all for breeding places that have not been upgraded:
        If you breed crystal and cactus and get:

        6 hours – quake
        1/2 hour-cactus
        12 hour- moss
        14 hour-tree
        24 hour- crystal
        OR your magic number of 31 hours – that’s your peridot.
        When your breeding places are upgraded the times become 20% less than what I listed above. Good Luck ๐Ÿ™‚

  27. Ryan says:

  31. usctrojan12 says:

    Hey Dragonvale Family! 31 HOURS YEAH! Just confirmed my first Peridot Dragon breeding Cactus on left and Crystal on right. They are on the Epic Island. This was my 6th attempt. I will transfer to incubation pedestal tomorrow. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!

    • Sloppy Tuna says:

      That’s SO cool!Congratulations!!! Im still trying and lost in a forest of crystal eggs but I still have lots of time left ๐Ÿ™‚

  32. Qiro says:

    Im here at Malaysia.. Its the 3rd of August and at 5:15 AM.. I bred Cactus and Crystal on the Epic Breeding Island and I got 12 hour breeding time and after a few seconds.. I hatched a new Crystal egg and fed to level 10. After that, I bred it with my Cactus dragon level 10 that is already been in the Fountain of Youth, which mean it is in Baby Form. And I got 35 hour breeding time. And now I have a few questions:

    1. What is the 12 hour breeding time?
    2. Is the 35 breeding time is the August Gem Dragon, Peridot?
    3. Does the Fountain of Youth (makes the dragons look young again) effects the chances to get Gem Dragon? I got a Pearl Dragon by sending my dragons to the Fountain of Youth too… By the way, Doc, if you are reading this, please make a experiment of this. I would be very happy if you do!

    • Gustav says:

      The 12 hour breed might be the Moss dragon.
      The 35 hour breed is a olympic dragon. It can be bronze, silver or gold. The Peridot takes 31 hours to breed. The fountain of youth only affects the dragons look, to make it younger. It will still make as much cash/gems as before ๐Ÿ™‚
      Hope it helped!

    • Qiro says:

      Guys.. It was a mistake it was a 31 hour breeding time.. And I waited a while and after that I used 27 gems to speed it up and it was a Peridot Dragon egg! Btw, here’s a tip: My friend said breed it early in the morning.. And I breed it at 5:30am and it worked!! Good luck! You still have alot of time

  37. Kool Hippo says:

    I keep trying cactus and crystal and I never get it. I’m only level 19. Do you have to be a certain level?

    • Sloppy Tuna says:

      Its definitely the combo my sister and aunt both got one with that and there is only ever ONE combo for a gem dragon. Keep trying you’ll get it and you have all month ๐Ÿ™‚ Im up to my eyeballs in crystal and tree eggs and down to 6 gems (from 700) so I feel your pain believe me lol

      • Sloppy Tuna says:

        and you only have to be level 11 to get this gem dragon ๐Ÿ™‚ ๐Ÿ™‚ ๐Ÿ™‚ so you’re good to go for sure

  38. Kool Hippo says:

    I tried about 11 times and wasted about 1345 gems
