Good question. I have yet to get a single mutation in any animal. I keep trying and hoping though. I am awaiting an answer from somebody with experience.

There is a good chance the offspring will have the mutation from its parent, Theres even a smaller chance that the offspring will be further mutated. however dont be surprised if the offspring will be unmutated (if other parent is entirely normal)

If your breeding it to another blue mutated trike, it will be blue but if your breeding it to a trike not blue mutated, it will have a 50% chance of being mutated 50% chance of having the other color.
Hope this helps :)

When breeding with mutations you get 100% a "mutation" in the offspring; meaning in the pedigree you will always see that you bred with a mutated dino even if its a regular color. Just like all other dino colors you get 50-50 chance of passing the blue over to the offspring.

ok so 1st egg i hatched had twins and both where blue like the father, so im guessing if i breed them i have a chance to get more mutations and more colors?

yeah once you have that mutation in the gene pool it is alot more likely that mutation is carried over, but you can still get another mutation on top of that, like I have a terror bird with a green face and when I breed that most times it passes the green face but not always, but I can could also have one with a green face and then another mutation like blue feathers, and once that mutation has happened then both previous mutations are more likely to carry over.

It's a long process but you can technically have 40 mutations I think it is, 20 on each parents side before you max out, that include stats mutations aswell.

but is it possible that if my mutated blue trike breeds with a non mutated bred trike could another 1 of its colors get mutated like having a blue body with a yellow frill or red feet?

Can confirm you can get two color mutations. Happened with my Equus. (Orange body, orange feet despite only the father having the mutated body)

alright then and please feel free to confirm or deny this but 1 site i found saying that 50 of the color id's can be used is that true cause region 0 on my mutated trike has been filled out by color id 2 which is blue so is it possible that i can get region 3 mutated with color id 44 which is dragonfire?

I have never sucessfully bred a dino and hatched the egg. They always die or something and I get super mad. Well, I hatched a wyvern egg, I literally just let it sit there surrounded by twenty something torches.
