{Panda Shrimps} Breeding Thread

[YourLoveOnly]

(Panda Shrimp lineart & shading by LunarPixie from PI, breeding items by Laviee, colored & managed by YLO)

Panda Shrimps are a genetic mutation/hybrid we found in nature. Panda Shrimps may be traded or resold for anything except USD. They have a variety of markings markings and more get discovered all the time! You can see the premade markings and read more about them here.

Breeding is always open and works on a turn-based system.

How It Works
If you are interested in breeding Panda Shrimps simply post your username in bold and I shall add you to the list.

With the owner's permission you can borrow a Panda Shrimp for breeding, so you can be on this list even if you don't own any! The list rotates and you are only removed if you post asking so.

Once it's your turn I will send you a PM letting you know (if you don't know yet: the PM inbox is at the bottom of the forum with the forum statistics, I couldn't find it at first x3). You are free to decline if you don't want to breed at that moment, I will move your name to the bottom of the list and contact the next person. A day or two after submitting the forms your babies will arrive and your name will go to the bottom of the list again.

What You Need To Know
* Male x Female pairs only
* Each Panda Shrimp can breed once per turn (so you can't put a single Shrimp with multiple males/females)
* You can use multiple pairs per turn
* Pairs can have more than one baby per turn
* One piece of bamboo required per baby, everything else optional
* You can breed up to five babies per turn, six if using a gold annalice. Breeding less babies is fine!
* You can only keep up to three babies yourself. Trade/gift/sell any spare ones before they grow
* Babies grow up after 7 days

Extra Info
Items can be used to influence things, but a basic breeding with just bamboo works like this:
* The baby's gender is random
* The baby will display a blend of the parents' colors
* Premade marking showing on both parents are guaranteed to pass
* Premade markings showing on only one parent have a 50% chance of passing
* Unique markings have a 30% of passing and items do not affect those odds, they only affect premade markings
