I GOT IT!!!
no you don’t
With what???????
I read online that it’s Crystal and Water:)
The Mac is stumped! Who stumped the Mac????
It fog and crystal I think is it 35 hours
thats olympus dragon
congrats you’ve got an OLYMPUS
Maybe Sandstorm and Ice/Iceberg? Opals are frequently found in sandstone. They have a water content up to 21%. That could account for the color or lack of color referenced in the description.
No it’s not looked already its copper and quake because you can get them at level 12!
hello people! you’ll know you have one when, and only when, you get a breeding time of:
31 hours (in the regular breeding cave and breeding island) — will look like this: 1:07:00:00
28 hours 48 minutes (in the upgraded breeding cave and island) — will look like this: 1:04:48:00
sorry mistyped up there — the upgraded time is _24_ hours 48 minutes (confused with all the olympus talk!) or 1:00:48:00
sorry must proofread before posting!
Mud and Lava, worked the first time ,3 minutes ago. Good luck to everyone!
I got it with lava and mud after four tries
Mud and lava gets opal
I was thinking Poison dragon? It is the blackest/darkest skinned dragon? 😉
I read online. Blazing and swamp…
I play daily so ppl are free to add me and ill send gems back. ShellSaundersis my screen name
Lava?
lol
Add me charlton2142 g4g I play everyday
Add me pls (burdge381) I play everyday and lvl 29. No friends currently so the first 6 get the gems everyday provided the service is returned
Hmmm so would it be air, earth, fire, lightning? Or water? Or plant?
I wonder if sandstorm might be one of the dragons….
The Doc can do it!!! We all need to send more gems! Add me Doc I will help you and so should every one else who ever received help on breeding their dragons! GCID “CRYSTANGEL”
To me,it looks like a moon dragon, the moon consists of crystal and blue fire, so that could work. My caves are full and gems are lw… I will have to wait to try for one.

Dragonvale just released the combo lava and mud, could it be?
Lava and mud wouldn’t make sense since you need 4 elements
I just tested it out. Got the opal dragon on the fifth try using Lava and Mud.
Just got breeding time 1:00:48 with lava and mud. ????
Got 1:00:47:52 Breeding time in Breeding Cave (Upgraded). Lava & Mud; 3rd try (using gems to speed up first 2 tries)
Hey doc,
I read that mud and lava might be the combination.
Doc someone confirmed mud and lava here are pics to prove it!
http://dragonvale.wikia.com/wiki/Opal_Dragon
We just got 31 hours using Mud and Lava!
Crystal+Water 5th try!
add me on gamecenter! NinjaSquirrelly
i have gifti tree! check out my dragons too!
I took this from dragonvalehow app for my iPhone….. “The Opal Dragon can be bred by selecting a Lava Dragon to mate with a Mud Dragon at the Breeding Cave/Epic Breeding Island.
Recommended combinations: Lava/Mud.”.
Hope that helps .
So after reading everyone suggestions, I tried panlong and butterfly and got 28 hours on upgraded EBI. I’m gonna try fog and sandstorm next! Ya never know! Good luck everyone!
Mud left, lave right – just got it – see Marius Carlsen
Hey guys, I have just tried lave and mud 3 times and got the opal on the 3rd go. It’s been confirmed on another dragonvale site.

Gem for gem, looking for a few more daily players, I have the gifting tree! Game Center id: osculum
Just sent friend request
I will trade gem for gem. Got the gem tree too.
Lava + Mud worked for me around the 6-7th try 🙂 on regular breeding cave
It took 8 times but Mud & Lava did work. Both level 11 dragons on EBI.
Can someone help me out? I want to make in app purchases to get this dragon and speed everything up. But my ipad2 says that in app purchases arent allowed…. and there is now way to fix in settings
Go to Settings >> General >> Restrictions. Under Allowed Content, there is a setting for In-App Purchases. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the info but its not there anymore ever since I updated to iOS6..
Wait a minute! Are you sure that this person is a adult and not a kid on their parents iPad or using their parents account? I know lots of patents who block in app purchases so their kids won’t of crazy.
Trust me I know my own age I’m 18 with a job and my own separate bank account from my parents. I would never do that to my parents never
I didn’t mean to offend you, I swear! When my nephew got his iPod touch my sis set up the account info never thinking he would go and buy a bunch of stuff. She locked the buying option very quickly after that. Lots of parents do it. But I promise I didn’t mean my post in a ugly way, just a protective one.
As I do with my children, I figure most parents create a password for the restricted portion of the ipod settings so that the kids can not change the settings. With that in mind, I figured it wouldn’t be an issue to tell him how to get there since he wouldn’t be able to do anything about it unless he has the password.
I got the Opal Dragon…….Mud (15). And Lava (15) on the island third try…..come and see egg at PSGunner on DV
Im trying poison and pollen. Or lava and pollen. Nothing yet.
COPPER AND QUAKE NO JOKE I AM SERIOS Good Luck
OK, after spending all morning trying different combinations, the system must have felt bad for me. I now have four Opals in the nursery. 😉 (so to answer someones earlier question, yes, you can get more than two gemstone dragons in one month.
IT’S LAVA AND MUD DR. MAC
Other sites are saying mud and lava
Mud & lava first try in breeding cave both level 12
Hello everybody,
This is my first post to this site, even though I refer to it for every combination. I tried mud + lava in the breeding cave and got a time of 1:00:47:55…
I rushed the breeding time and it is in fact an opal!!
I hope this helps you all!!
Got it first try Mud+Fire
You are so lucky.
