26% OffIf you’re diving back into this magical dragon-breeding adventure or just curious about those egg-hatching mysteries, you’ve come to the right place. Even though DragonVale World wrapped up its official run back in 2019, the game’s charm lives on through fan communities and nostalgic players. Breeding and hatching dragons was the heart of the fun—mixing elements, waiting for that perfect egg, and watching your park grow. In this guide, we’ll break down everything from how breeding leads to incubation, a handy chart of hatch times for all dragons, tips to speed things up, and some real-world fun to keep the dragon spirit alive. Let’s hatch some knowledge!
Breeding dragons in DragonVale World starts with pairing two adult dragons (level 4 or higher) in the Breeding Cave. Each dragon has elements like Fire, Jungle, Earth, Frozen, Water, Fairy, or Air, and combining them can create hybrids, rares, or even enchanted versions. Once bred, you get an egg that goes to the Incubator (or Nursery) to hatch. The cool part? Breeding time usually matches the hatch time, so you can peek at the timer to guess what dragon you’ve got. No fancy jargon here—just simple mixes that lead to epic results. Remember, rarer dragons often need specific combos and a bit of luck!
How to Use the Incubator in DragonVale World
The Incubator is your egg’s cozy home while it hatches. Think of it as a magical oven baking your dragon baby. Here’s how it works step by step:
- Get Your Egg: After breeding, move the egg from the cave to the Incubator. You start with one slot, but you can upgrade or buy more with gems or coins for multitasking.
- Start Hatching: Tap to place the egg, and the timer kicks off. Times range from seconds for basic dragons to days for epics—patience is key!
- Speed It Up: Don’t want to wait? Use gems to rush the process. Or, level up your Incubator for permanent time reductions (more on that below).
- Display and Place: Once hatched, name your dragon and find it a habitat based on its elements. Pro tip: Keep an eye on your park’s space—overcrowding slows things down.
Upgrading the Incubator was a game-changer. Early levels cut times by 10-20%, and maxing it out could shave hours off rares. If you’re replaying via emulators or old saves (since the app’s gone), focus on gem farming early to boost this feature.
Hatch Time Chart for DragonVale World Dragons
Nothing beats a clear chart for quick reference! Below is a complete table of all dragons in DragonVale World, sorted by hatch time (which matches breeding time). I’ve pulled this from reliable fan wikis and guides like the DragonVale World Fandom Wiki and Touch Tap Play’s breeding list. Times are for normal versions; enchanted ones might vary slightly but follow similar patterns. Elements help you plan combos, and rarity notes (Common, Rare, Epic) guide your expectations.

Notes on the Chart: Times are approximate based on standard play. Enchanted versions (rarer, stronger dragons) often take longer but offer better rewards. If you’re missing a dragon, try co-op breeding with friends or event boosts. Sources confirm these from player data on sites like Player.One’s breeding guide.
Tips to Reduce Hatch Times
Waiting for eggs to hatch can feel like forever, especially for those 48-hour epics! Here are easy ways to cut down the wait:
- Gem Speed-Ups: Tap the timer and spend gems to finish instantly. Farm gems by completing quests, visiting friends’ parks, or daily logins.
- Incubator Upgrades: Invest in upgrades early. Level 1 might reduce times by 15%, while max level slashes 50% off commons and 30% off rares. It’s worth the coins!
- Boosts and Potions: Use in-game boosts like the “Hatchery Elixir” (if available in events) to halve times temporarily.
- Runic Caves (Advanced): For high-level players, these special caves cut breeding/hatch times by 75%. A 24-hour dragon? Down to 6 hours!
- Gems from Real Money?: If you’re dedicated, microtransactions helped, but since the game’s discontinued, focus on free methods in emulated versions.
Pro players swear by planning around events—limited dragons often have shorter windows but better boosts.
Best Practices for Planning Your Dragon Park
To master DragonVale World, think like a dragon keeper! Here are top strategies:
- Element Balance: Stock up on primary elements first (Fire, Earth, etc.) for easy hybrids. Use the chart above to target rares like Cinder by mixing three elements.
- Park Layout: Place habitats near the Incubator for quick access. Group by elements to maximize visitor cash.
- Daily Routines: Log in multiple times a day to collect coins, feed dragons, and start new breeds. Don’t let slots sit empty!
- Event Hunting: Even post-shutdown, fan recreations highlight events for limited dragons like Gongji. Join forums like Reddit’s DragonVale community for tips.
- Avoid Common Mistakes: Don’t breed the same pair repeatedly—rotate to increase rare chances. And always have backup gems for surprises!
By following these, you’ll hatch a thriving park in no time. Remember, it’s about the joy of discovery, not rushing.

Why DragonVale World Still Captivates Us

Over 100 dragons, vibrant parks, and social breeding kept players hooked. Today, emulators and fan mods keep it alive—search DragonVale Tips Proboards for downloads.
In comparison to the original DragonVale:
| Feature | DragonVale World | Original DragonVale |
|---|---|---|
| Dragon Count | ~160 | 500+ |
| Unique Elements | Fairy, Frozen | Galaxy, Rift |
| Hatch Time Range | Seconds to 2d+ | Similar |
| Discontinued? | Yes (2019) | No |
| Best For | Hybrids & Events | Ongoing Updates |
World’s focus on enchanted rares made hatching more exciting!
Advanced Strategies for Rare Hatches
For pros: Target enchanted dragons by using higher-level parents. For example, breed Venom (Fire + Jungle) at night for better odds. Track fails— if you get a common, sell and retry. Use DragonVale Sandbox tools for simulations, even if adapted from the original game.
Event dragons like LanGou required seasonal combos—plan ahead with calendars from fan sites.
