The moment that a lot of you have been waiting for is almost here- Fancy Breeding!

Fancy Genesis Birds will start breeding — on Friday, Feb. 18th

Before diving into the mechanics of Breeding, lets differentiate the terminology between the different types of Fancy Birds after the reveal happens:

Genesis Set [8888 Fancy Birds]

Legendary Birds — There will be 15 randomly assigned birds with legendary traits. Strictly cosmetic.

Full Sets — There will be 25 ‘full sets’. These are also 1/1 birds with more common traits that have been combined together to form a full set.

Collaboration Birds — There will be 1050 custom collaboration bird skins for guilds and other DAOs who will be strategic in helping grow the Fancy Birds ecosystem through breeding. Collaboration birds include [Merit Circle, YGG, Polemos, YGG-SEA, BreederDAO, SnackClub, IndiGG, LootSquad, BAYZ]

Fancy Birds — 7798 randomly generated Genesis birds taken from over 500+ traits [Head, Body, Mouth, Wings, Accessory, Eyes, Background]

Note: All of the Genesis Birds will have the same breeding capabilities, and all will have traits that can be passed down to Baby Birds.

Mutation Birds — 2.5% of the Genesis Birds (excluding Collaboration Birds) will be randomly assigned a Mutation Trait, allowing them to earn more on the daily and weekly FNC caps. Details of daily caps will be given in a follow up article. Mutation traits are represented in game with unique trails behind your bird, and a special logo on your nft.

Baby Bird Set

The Baby Bird set will be part of the same set on OpenSea. However, they will have their own unique generation of traits to be bred out and discovered!
Also they have a 10% chance of receiving a Genesis trait from the parents traits list.

Baby Birds will have the same daily earning capabilities as the original Genesis Set (with the exception of mutant traits), however they will NOT have the ability to breed. This will be subject to change via Governance.

Each Genesis bird will have 4 breeds allowed per month. The amount of breeds will reset each month. After each breed, there will also be a cool down of 5 days before the bird can breed again. Upon breeding, you will receive an egg that will be able to hatch in 24h.

The cost per Bird in FNC or sFNC (Synthetic FNC) as seen in the image above. As per the chart, depending on the number of times a bird is breeding, the % chance of pulling a legendary bird or mutated trait goes higher.

As an example, if a Fancy bird is on Breed 1, and another on Breed 3:

Cost to Breed:

150 FNC + 500 FNC = 650 FNC OR 200 sFNC + 650 sFNC = 850 sFNC

% chance of a Legendary Baby Bird:

(0.1 + 0.25) / 2 = 0.175%

% chance of a Mutated Baby Bird:

(2 + 3) / 2 = 2.5%

Breeding Chart

There are a few scenarios of breeding we can dive into.

1. Breeding the same Collaboration Birds with each other.

Example: Breeding a YGG genesis bird with another YGG genesis bird

2. Any other combination of birds.

Example flow of the 2 birds above, one on Breed 1 and another on Breed 3:

Note: This is ONLY for the scenario of 2 of the exact same Collaboration Birds breeding together. Example: 2 YGG Birds, giving them an off-chance to breed a 2nd generation YGG Bird.

For traits [Head, Body, Mouth, Wings, Accessory, Eyes, Background], there is a 5% chance each cosmetic trait from each parent could be passed down to the Baby Bird. 90% chance the Baby Bird’s traits are taken from a pool of new Gen-2 Baby Bird Traits.
