Dragon Sickness

Bums (small bums as well as mid-size bums) can become sick and die. There are two different reasons for this, both relating to the amount of views/clicks it has earned. Softcheeks/sickness will not prevent your dragons from growing up, but one should get rid of the sickness as soon as possible to ensure your bums reach maturity.

Is My Bum Sick?
To tell if your bum is sick, simply look on his/her/its personal statistics page. Underneath the description will be one of two messages (depending on whether the sick bum is in the small bum or mid-size bum stage).


 * If your small bum has softcheeks, this message will appear underneath:


 * "The cheeks of the bum seems soft, as though there's something wrong with it."


 * If your mid-size bum is ill, this message will appear:


 * "The bum seems sick. It hasn't been eating lately and it doesn't move very much."

Causes and Solutions
The type of sickness your bum is suffering from can be easily determined by looking at its stats on your scroll.

Type A

 * Your bum has received too many views in too short a time:


 * This is the most common cause of sickness and soft bum, and generally occurs during the first day or two of a bums growth. To fix this, simply fog your bum to prevent it from being viewed. It's generally accepted that sickness and soft shell will go away in 24 hours.

Type B



 * Your bum has more clicks than unique views:


 * This is less common but does happen some of the time when breeding. On occasion your bum will get 1 click from you clicking on it but, for some reason, the initial view didn't register.  To fix this click your scroll link at the top of your scroll to register 1 view and unique view for your egg.  If this doesn't work for whatever reason, simply place your bum in a forum or on a click site where people can view it. This is one time you'll be happy that not everyone clicks all the BC bums they come across.

General Tips
Essentially, the goal is to get views and clicks for your bum(s), but also to space them out so they're not getting killed from over-viewing. Keep an eye on your bum(s) and check them daily (or at least once every two days) to monitor for this. Exercise common sense and soft cheeks will not be an issue.

Many experienced bum-tenders do not attempt to collect views for their eggs (either by not posting them anywhere or by fogging them) before they have reached six days left, as bums in their first day are more susceptible to sickness and often need fewer views to become sick.
