Keep getting that with Cat-pattern too. Nothing against the kitty shape, but I always loooved the pretty pink and golden snow leopards. x)
Also, this feels really awkward and bad - criticising the game content, sorry - but I'm a bit disappointed that the Bird of Prey pattern devs look identical to normal gryphs, and the double devs look the same as the colour devs. I know the body shape needn't be changed as "bird of prey" is already the default gryph-shape, but they could've had some tiny alteration to markings. Are there any natural mutations or variations that can pop up in those bird species? Faded colours, male/female dimorphism, different types of kite or eagle, etc?
Feels like a slight missed opportunity, and there's little incentive to try breeding for these particular devs. Unless you just love challenge and having little stars in the genetics. x)
edit: now thinking of ospreys, ooh. Well, guess we have custom skins for this purpose!
