Now, go back to colortools.net and mix the first marking Colors of each parent. Type it into the box in the demo, along with the marking. Continue this until you've finished.

When using this to predict your pups,have 4 tabs or windows of wajas open. You need the father, the mother, the custom demo, and the mixer. In the custom demo, put the markings in line for the mother's layering. Now, with each marking, put the father's hex code in one slot and the mother's in the other one. The middle is about where the pup's color will end up. When you have this put in the custom demo, go on to the next. Do this for all the markings, the eyes, and the coat, while putting this in the demo. When you're all done, the demo will have a preview of roughly where your pup will end up. Note: With love pears, the colors will vary more. With Ancient love pears, the colors will be more in the center of the range.

Wajas are able to have a variety of features in any color of the rainbow. When making customs, you enter colors for the markings, mutations, base color, and eye color of your waja through hex codes. When dyeing Wajas, you enter the color of the dye marking with a hex code.

Additionally, when breeding wajas the colors of features on the offspring are determined by mixing the hex codes of the equivalent features on the parents. As a result, understanding hex codes and color mixing can greatly improve the results of your breedings.

What are Hex Codes?

For an in-depth explanation of Hex Codes, see: Hex Codes Explanation

Hex Codes are codes in the format of a pound sign(#) followed by six characters ranging from 0-9 and A-F. In Wajas, hex codes are used to define the colors of Wajas' markings, mutations, base color, and eye color.

Basic Hexes

  1. White = #FFFFFF
  2. Black = #000000
  3. Red = #FF0000
  4. Yellow = #FFFF00
  5. Green = #00FF00
  6. Blue = #0000FF
  7. Magenta = #FF00FF
  8. Turquoise = #0FF0F0


It is important to note that how colors mix on a computer (using light) is not always exactly the same as how they would mix with paints (using pigments). For example, breeding yellow and blue will not get you green as you might expect, but rather a murky gray color.


Color Mixer

The color mixer is a tool that can be used to determine the range of hex colors between two given hex colors. This is accessed under the help tab. When using this, you will take the hex codes for the given feature in each parent and put them in the two input fields. Once you have the appropriate hex codes entered, press the "Generate Sample Spectrum" button to get a range of possible colors that fall between the parent's colors.
