* **Mare Breeding**\

**Note:** *A certain Egg Type does **NOT** guarantee the chances of an off spring being a mutant or legendary, it only represents the parents. However, the odds are increased. Legendary parents can still have common baby birds, but the chances of having a legendary baby bird are greater when using legendary parents. Please see the following article for a detailed odd breakdown:*
[Season 1 Breeding](/whitepaper/infographics/seasons-and-leaderboards/season1.md)
**Where will the sFNC go from Breeding?**
