I've been thinking about the 195 gold to skip. It might seem a lot, but it is roughly half of what it would cost to buy that amount of food with gold, plus the player still gets three pretty impressive dragons for, effectively, 195 gold. To buy from the market would be how much in total? Say 1,500 per dragon so 4,500 gold.

195 gold is less than $10 of real money. Many adults spend $15 a week buying coffees on the way to work. Tough for kids spending allowance money though.

Just putting it in perspective.

Granted, my father always said "watch the pennies, the pounds look after themselves". 10 gold here, 5 gold there, 1 gold to skip that last hour of breeding - it all adds up over time. Those bits and pieces probably eat up more than one hit of 195.
