Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It has a pink cloud that follows it everywhere. You seem to be having more difficulty concentrating since it arrived.

And look! It has grown wings! It must be close to maturing.

Young dragons are relatively defenseless. They are born with relatively soft scales, which are shed and replaced with harder ones as the hatchling matures. Once a hatchling’s wings grow in, it typically marks the beginning of maturation. At this point they are often capable of hunting on their own and are usually left alone by their mother.

This dreamy little hatchling loves floating lazily by on a cloud. He's very popular with both hatchling and adult dragons, though he has a mean streak that shows whenever he is alone with some of the younger hatchlings. The young guardian hatchling Chaizin noticed this, though not many of the other hatchlings believe him. Conceiving of Fancy and Chaizin consequently despise each other and are always trying to make the other look bad.
