My bulbori is now 24 days old and is still an adolescent. I don't know what to do with him. Can you give me some info about why?

It depends on whether your pet started off as an adolescent/ hatchling/ eggling.

A pet becomes a hatchling at 72 hours, adolescent at 216 hours, and adults at 648 hours. This is the pet's maturity btw, which is different from the pet's age you see on the pet profile.

The pet's age on the profile indicates the age since the pet has been created. Whereas the pet's maturity is determines the pet's life stage.

Different pets start off at different maturities. Generated pets start off as adolescent, bred pets usually start off at 0 as eggs, found/captured pets can start off at any maturity.

The pet's age only give you a rough indication of the pet's maturity. To see the actual maturity of the pet, you'll need to genetically test it. There are users who offer free testing services in the breeding forum if you don't have your own kit. Then when you copy the image url, at the end there'll be a &maturity=__, where the number there is the pet's maturity in hours.

He started off as an egg. So what you're saying is that in just a couple days he should be an adult?

a few days from when you first posted, yes.

I just looked and he is now an adult. Thank you for your help. I was just worried.

This was very useful, but I'm kinda concerned because my best Sylesti, Peinto (who I plan to breed) is al ready 20/21 days old, and is still a adolescent.

If he was born as an egg, he won't be an adult until he gets to be 27 days old. Pet maturity is different than age - the age is shown in days, but the maturity is only shown in the URL of the pet's image.

You can only see a pet's exact maturity if it's genetically tested - at the end of the image code, you'll see something that says "&maturity=###". The ### will be an actual number that tells you what stage your pet is in!
< 72 = eggling
73 - 215 = hatchling
216 - 647 = adolescent
> 648 = adult

If your pet isn't tested, that ### will stay at 73 or 216 until it gets to the next stage. If you get your pet tested, then it will go up by 1 each hour - then you'll see exactly how old it is and how much longer it needs to grow!~

Oh, thanks so much!

I was wandering of the reason for setting a breeding price if we can only use our own adult sylestis

Hi there! I hope I'm interpreting your question correctly.

The reason you can set a breeding price on your pets is to allow other users to breed their pets to yours!

If you look on the advanced search, after clicking on the "Search Pets" image at the top you should see an option that says "For Breeding:" If you check "Yes," you can find pets that other users own that are available for anyone to breed their pets to!

To breed with another user's pet, you have to go to the pet's profile. For example, here's my luffox Kella's profile page: link! In the box that says "Information," there should be a button that says "View Prices." Click on it, and you'll be able to select any male luffox you own to breed with her!

I hope that answered your question! Feel free to ask me if you have more!
