Exactly. I did some maths. If you obtain small rubies/topazes/emeralds by trading short-breed/hatch-time common hybrids, by the time you've grown the food to raise them to Level 4 (for anyone who doesn't realise it, you can't trade them prior to Level 4) then traded the small rubies for large ones - and, FINALLY, crafted the dragon, it's about 6 WEEKS!
