Gemstone Dragons

How to Breed the Amber Dragon in DragonVale (Quarterly Gemstone)

Illustration: a warm amber gemstone

The short answer: breed an Evergreen Dragon with a Quake Dragon during the Amber window — in recent years about 15 August to 15 November. Breeding takes 30 hours 26 minutes 15 seconds (24h 21m upgraded).

Amber is a quarterly gemstone dragon: it earns gems and is available for roughly three months each autumn rather than a single birthstone month. As of 24 October 2026 its window is open and runs until about 15 November.

Amber, Jade and the shared timer

Amber and the Jade Dragon share the same unusual timer, 30h 26m 15s. Their windows don’t overlap — Jade runs in summer, Amber in autumn — so during Amber season that timer from an Evergreen + Quake pair is a reliable sign of success.

Planning the autumn

Amber overlaps two single-month gemstones: Sapphire (September) and Topaz (November). Give the birthstone its caves first each month and fill the rest with Amber — it stays longer.
