Lavender started to gray and John, I’m sure, would follow close behind her. After all, Lavender is 13 minutes older than dear John here. 🙂

I opted to let them live their lives without any more children and to start hatching the babies and preparing them for any future trades or uploads. All ten were then hatched and exported to be put through the classic IQ test later. All this test really does is make sure that they can walk and find food (whether by tracking down a smell or by chance) normally.

One half hour later, Lavender was still gray (and managed to get pregnant again) but John was still bright red and blonde! I opened up his genetics and found that his Life half-life was 101 where Lavender’s was 99. A very small difference but that was the only change I could find in his life-related genes.

It took a while but finally, at 4 and a half hours old, John was starting to grey a bit himself.

After that, I left them alone to live their lives together in the relative peace. Their 11th child was put through the IQ test with the others. The result of that is coming up next. 🙂

No sooner had I started the game than John and Lavender made a new egg.

AlbertIt was cute to see them practically glued together but Albert seemed to prefer solitude and lemons to the company of his companions.

Unfortunately, Lavender cannot produce enough progesterone to lay her egg naturally so some CAOS intervention was soon in order. After going back and reading my last update about this group, I realized I should have picked up on this sooner. Oh well! Her egg count was now up to 3.

LavJonAfter the egg commotion, there was yet another lull. Such a small population has its disadvantages. I decided to grab a bite and see what happened when I returned.

Life carried on this way for a time – at least 3 more eggs were laid but tragically Albert passed away alone in the C1toDS world, where he preferred to be. He didn’t live a long life but he seemed content til the end. He hadn’t even moved since his last picture and every time I set him with the others, he would travel back to this spot.

John and Lavender, meanwhile, just kept making babies, which was good. It’s always good to have a large pool of babies to choose from for the following generation and, hopefully, none of them had the natural generation-killing gene that Lavender had. The one that prevented her from laying eggs is a potential disaster.
