Cactus and firefly works. First try in the EBI I got the topaz. No luck yet with the BC. Good luck!
Got on the sixth try with this combo! I can’t believe I got IT!!! Yaaaaaa 🙂
First try with Cactus and Firfly on ebs.
It’s my b-month and I got it 1st and 2nd try
What is the second egg in the picture?. With the heart on it?
Love dragon. It’s available in february so I have no clue how he gets those. An while ago he got a leap year dragon!
Probably has two or more and you can breed them at any time to make more
He can get them because he has 2 of each dragon. Breed 2od the same type and then… Go figure
Valentine dragon 🙂
Love dragon, actually. It’s just for Valentine’s day.
So how is that in the picture? An the bloom dragon too. I don’t get it…
He must have 2 of them so he can breed them and produce them again.
Yes Doc, I love your page and use it constantly so first off Thank You!! But I am ever so curious as to how you always have rare seasonal dragon eggs in your pics with the newest gem dragon?? For example the “Love” dragon egg and “Bloom” dragon eggs above; or the “Reindeer” dragon egg in your pic for the “Ghost” dragon egg? Should we assume that we can in fact breed those dragons out of season or do you have some other trick up your sleeve? I would greatly appreciate it if you could clarify this for me/us… And again, thanks for all your help! I’m a big fan of your work!
If you have 2 of any dragon you can breed them together to get another no matter what time of year.
– The Doc
You can breed them if you have 2 all year long
I was wondering the same thing, so good to know. At first It sort of makes your breeding claims suspicious, but I’ve been coming here long enough to know they’re legit. Thanks for keeping us in the know!

got it with cactus and firefly
Just got it! Used a lot of saved up gems though, so it took me a TON of tries in EBI and breeding cave. But hey, at least I got this one. Still sad about my lack of opal…
Eehh, I prefer topaz dragons anyways
Me too… I wasted all my gems on opal, even though I was saving up from races and colosseum for the EBI… If I don’t get this one I swear I’m gonna shoot myself!
I have a question doc, why do you always have a photo for the gemstone dragon on the first day of it coming out? Just wondering. Oh and by the way if you have a breeding island, or have enough gems to buy it, breed it at the island, and others, get the island. It boosts your luck by a ton. (Even though I’ve been trying to get a gemstone dragon for a long time at the breeding Island and no luck). ????
Add me to trade gems!!! I trade every day
——–> Sexypants8888 <———
add Jbirdsan for gems. 4 spots. trade every day.
Yo doc
So is there only one combo for this dragon or 2 people posted comments about it being obsidian and sonic can you clarify
????????????????????
This is it. People like to post bogus stuff early on. Other dragons have multiple combos I may not list, but the Monthly Gem dragons only have one combo per month.
– The Doc
Hey Doc, I’ve tried adding you on GC using both names, and they just won’t send. I just got my gem tree yesterday, (it’s about time, finally hit Level 30 too). I love your site, and I’d be more than happy to send you a gem daily 🙂 I don’t expect anything in return. Thanks for all the great info!!!! Add me… GC: Michbesch
Hey Doc!
How did you get that love and blossom (I think it’s blossom) dragon? A while back you got a leap year dragon. They aren’t available when you get them! How do you do it???
Epic – firefly left / cactus right. 2 tries prior, got 2 cactus…
Oh and got the Topaz on 3rd… Dr is for real…
Hey everybody, here’s the thing, gemstone dragons are extremely rare So breed them at a rare island called the epic breeding island. Ok let me say what I mean to say, ok, the breeding island boosts your luck by a lot, so when your try to breed a gemstone dragon you might have a chance to get it. But, when you try breeding it at the breeding CAVE it will be very very extremely unlikely, only if apparently you some how breed it at the cave, your a miracle. So raise gems and save them up to get the breeding island, and good luck!!
Happy breeding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Ps. If you need gems, my Game Center name is Emcatera, if you add I will be happy to give gems to you. I am on every day so I will give a gem ASAP. Thanks!
I got my perideaux and opal in the cave so……..
Well as I said your a miracle then.
yeah i disagree, as long as both breeding things are upgraded or unupgraded, then they have the same chance
oh, by the way! i got 24 hours in the upgraded breeding cave. Do u think this is opal? Thanks!
er i mean topaz
I doubt that. The breeding time for topaz is 30 hours.
Thanks Doc –I got one with firefly and cactus. Btw I tried to add you a while ago to help you speed breed. I’ll try again. I’m ev sphinx in game center
Used firefly and cactus and got a 30hr incubation time
That’s good. That means you got it.
Just got 2 in a row with Firefly on left and Cactus on Right. One in EBI and other in breeding cave. Tried many times with Cactus on left and Firefly on right but no luck. Don’t know if left and right matter.
I got it second try EBI with level 8 Catus left, level 10 firefly right. Thanks !!
Hey,
This is my very first time trying to breed a gemstone dragon. I don’t have the epic breeding island, just the normal breeding cave. Since im new at this gemstone dragon breeding, then I have a few questions. Please help me figure these out.
1) do I have to have the Epic Breefing Island to get a gem dragon?
2) do I have to buy the gemstone island before I start to breed for a gemstone dragon?
Oh and please add me. I need gemstones, and I’d be happy to give some away..
Please add: Beachyy
You don’t have to have the epic breeding island to get gemstone dragons, but I guess it can help. I got both my gemstone dragons in my breeding cave, even though I have the EBI. And as for the gemstone island you do need it to place them cus it’s their habitat 🙂 happy breeding
Thank you so much!!! ((:
Got it with the Catus and Firefly comb but I used up 50 gems before I got it.
Omg doc you’re the best! Got it 3rd try, I’ve gotten a gem dragon on the first day! Yay!
Topaz first try in normal breeding cave with cactus and firefly
Cactus / Firefry is work got one from EBI
FIRST TRY AT EBI!!! WOO HOO!!! Now I have 3 gemstone dragons! Sapphire, opal, and now topaz. SWEET!!! ????????????????
I got it!!!!
Third try! Cactus+Firefly!!!
Macenstein you’re the true reliable master!!
Got it 1st try on EBI
Just got it! Spent 96 gems incubating and hatching but I can confirm this does work
My cactus dragons name is Rooty and my Firefly is Blaze. I don’t have an upgraded breeding cave or island either. Hope that helps.
CAN YOU BREED CACTUS AND SCORCH???????? INSTEAD BIG MAC
yeah i agree joshua can you breed them together
Firefly left cactus right. Add me JOROYJO
Omg! Cactus + firefly got it on first try! I’m so happy right now! Previously the Opal dragon took me an entire month to get ( just got it 2 days ago)
Awesome cheers
Took 9 tries and 45 gems to speed things up but finally got it on EBI
45 gems? So, it will only take your level 10 Topaz 45 weeks to earn its cost back then 😉
Well considering that with a full gem island each gem habitat produces a new gem about 2 days. Then with 6 good gem friends, 6 new gems a day, and knowing the right dragon to put in arena 5 new gems a day. It works out pretty good. Plus when trying to get kairos pieces in the races, I ended up getting a tons of gems and going up 4 levels so now almost level 39
Got it at the first try in the normal BC!
Thanks!
I just got a bonsai gifting tree the first 6 people to add me will get gem 4 gems!!!!

Hi!
First of all, I want to thank Mac for a great job!
I’ve played dragonvale for many months now and I still love it. All my dragons in action are also available in display. Feel free to join me to visit my park and also for gem-trading. Im doing my best with gems and gifting back as good as I can!
Add me: adelica123
Yep! Got it 😀 second try!
Ooooooh the egg is beautiful.. I fear this is gonna be difficult for me. Was quite lucky with the last few gemdragons. Doc, how do you come up with the combinations? 🙂
In case anyone was wondering, its 1500 gems to buy an egg. Though im not sure who has that many gems in the first place.
I use your site all the time. I am at level 34. Can,t believe how much I have enjoyed this game. Only have one gem dragon though. Saving for gem giving tree. Nearly there—-
Hi doc
Thanks a lot for all the help breading dragons, if anyone out there needs a gem for gem friend, I give gems every day – add me markussen2200
Wow! Got it first try with cactus and firefly!!! When does that ever happen? Thanks Doc!! Plus I finally have my first panlong incubating in the cave. So far November is starting out well. 😉
My friend got a rainbow dragon on his first try… He rubs it in my face every day since. Finally got him to shut up when I got the gold dragon haha!
I got this dragon 1st try 😀 add me alfian99
Just started 🙂
Gem for gem…I play every day and pretty much happy to give back for those who are generous like me 🙂
Add me: Jun&Lfair
Got it second try with firefly on left and cactus on the right. Easiest one ever for me! Can anyone tell me what happens after level 35 ?
What works for me: take four “virgin” dragons (ones that have never been breed before), and breed them at the same time on the EBI and in the BC. Like penguins, the dragons you pair up should only be breed with each other for life (or in this case until you get the dragon you want). Don’t use gems if you can avoid it. Be patient and diligent. I rename my dragons to remember who’s breeding with who.
Example:
For the Topaz dragon:
Cactus (named Adams) + Firefly (named Apple) on EBI.
Cactus (named Big) + Firefly (named Blinky) in the breeding cave.
I breed them in this exact way until I get my dragon, usually less than 10 tries.
I’m currently on attempt 2 for both sets.
Good luck and be patient!
Yup, got one with Dr’s combo above.
I still have 3 more daily gems to give.. Just cleaned out my friends list in GC who weren’t sending back gems daily.
If you are a daily player and are serious about trading gems daily, add me in GC and friend me.
I’ve done the same, and now have the tree. 3 gems left to trade daily. Add me 🙂 GC: Michbesch
Whats the 3rd egg? 😮
Hey all,
Just go my gem tree friend me if you want to gem swap? Gc id: Sean.mck62
I’ve tried Cactus and Firefly 43 times before I ran out of gems and have had no luck. I keep getting Ash, Firefly,Cactus and Poison.
Am I doing something wrong??
Thanks in advance.
🙁 10 failed attempts so far, I really hope I get this dragon. Because I was born in November.
BTW does anyone else here have a love dragon? Because I do 😛

Does anyone know if its possible to own two of the same gemstone dragons at once by breeding them not buying them?
You can directly breed a gemstone dragon with another gemstone dragon, but its possible to be lucky enough to breed 2 or more of the same gemstone dragon. Hope this answered your question 🙂
