Your first week
Follow the milestones on the Collection as your program grows.
After Garry's tutorial, Your first week appears on the Collection. It records 6 milestones for experiences you can complete in your own order. Open the row to see what each asks and follow its action link. The highlighted milestone is a suggested next step, not a requirement to finish the others in sequence.
- First natural hatch: Hatch an egg from one of your own pairings. An egg takes a day or two in the Incubator, so while it waits, look at who else could pair. Completing it earns 10 reputation. Open the Incubator.
- First pairing of your own: Choose a female and a male and start a pairing. Completing it earns 5 reputation. Start a pairing.
- First gecko from the market: Bring in a gecko from the market, with your Foundation Voucher or from another keeper. Completing it earns 5 reputation. Visit the market.
- First hidden trait confirmed: Test a gecko to find a trait it carries but does not show. Completing it earns 25 reputation. See the genetic tests.
- First sale: Sell a gecko to another keeper or to an NPC keeper. Completing it earns 5 reputation. Visit the market.
- First retirement: Retire a gecko from breeding when you choose to. It stays in your collection. Completing it earns 5 reputation. Open your collection.
For your first days, begin with daily care and a pairing your founders can make. While a clutch and egg develop, inspect the Morph Library, read your geckos' genetics, and decide whether the Foundation Voucher would give you a useful outcross. Come back to the Incubator when an egg is ready. A sale, test or retirement can wait until it fits the program you want; no milestone asks you to rush a decision.
The row can be collapsed, and completed milestones remain recorded. See Daily care, pairing to clutch and genetic testing when those steps are new.
