Striped Dragon

Striped Dragons were released on April 22, 2009, alongside Balloon, Daydream, Dorsal, Pink, Sunrise, Sunset and Whiptail Dragons. The Black variant was added to the site on March 16, 2011, alongside the Pillow and Swallowtail Dragons. Striped Dragons share their egg description with the Spitfire Dragon, though they are found in different biomes.
The white variant of this dragon is often referred to as its "default color" due to being the only color that can be obtained from the cave; this variant can also be obtained through breeding. The other colors can only be obtained by breeding a Striped Dragon with other particular dragons that have strong colorations themselves.
All Striped x Striped pairs will produce a random color. There is no guarantee that breeding a Striped Dragon with another Striped Dragon of a given color will produce offspring of the same color. Some non-Striped dragons can produce multiple color variants when bred with a Striped Dragon, and which color is produced is random.
== Official descriptions ==
=== Egg ===
This egg has brightly colored markings on it.
=== Hatchling ===
Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It spends its time pouncing on insects.
=== Mature hatchling ===
Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It spends its time pouncing on insects.
And look! It has grown wings! It must be close to maturing. It is also now covered in brightly colored stripes.
=== Adult ===
Striped Dragons come in a dazzling array of colors complemented by an intricate pattern of stripes. These bright colors and patterns help attract their favorite food, insects. Because their prey is so tiny, striped dragons must spend a large portion of their day eating. The color of the offspring is usually determined by the dragon’s mate.

== Trivia ==
*Under Breed sort, Striped Dragons sort using their Encyclopedia name. Within the breed, the order of the variants is White, Blue, Red, Green, Black.
*During the first few hours of the initial release, it was possible to catch Blue, Red and Green Striped Dragons from the cave. This glitch was soon fixed and all caveborn eggs were turned White.
*Up to a couple of weeks after their release, Golden Wyverns would produce Blue Striped eggs when paired with a Striped Dragon.
*Before the Dimorphism update on March 26, 2010, both genders of this dragon appeared as the male sprite.
*Canopy and Nocturne Dragons produced White Striped eggs through breeding, but were later assigned colors.
**Before The Change, breeding a Ribbon Dancer to a Striped Dragon would result in a White Striped egg, but it now has the potential to result in a Green Striped egg. It is unknown if green is now the only result possible from this breeding pair.
