      What I wonder IS if a dragon has been precogged as male or female, couldn't it just appear where it normally would on the dragons page?

      At least for hatchies... I am unsure that could work for eggies because THOSE can, in theory still be influenced.

      my dragon kid named pondhopper, because she was originally meant to be green and marinating in a pond but she just... became pink

      Anyway just finished an adult version of her, she’s a bit cuter as a hatchie (old art)
