Not 100% sure if its really a bug or what, but on some dragons, when i put a nest down, it says that I have a certain recessive skin, that I either don't at all have in the lineage, or much less than other skins. Like, how do I have leum as recessive, if I have another skin, like leum, that is more present in the lineage? Just confusing ig x3

The way that skins are intended to work, is that each dragon carries two skins. When an egg is made, the egg picks one skin from each parent. And then which skin becomes the dominant (visual) skin is determined by the skins rarities. This means that a skin that was dominant can be passed parent to child as a recessive (hidden) skin for multiple generations before becoming a dominant skin again.
Skins in the lineage that are not passed from parent to child are not intended to reappear later.
Skins far enough back to not be show in the lineage may be still present as recessive skins. It typically requires nesting with a Dom pointed dragon to view a dragon's recessive skin.
