gollark: ```Dragon Data (DDF): Whenever the API returns data about a dragon, it returns an multi-dimensional array called "dragons." Inside this array are more arrays containing data about a dragon. These arrays are associative and contain the following keys: id: Dragon's ID, may be up to 5 characters in length. name: Dragon's name if it has one, otherwise empty owner: display's owner's username only if they have set their account settings to reveal their username or if the action is user/user_young. start; Stolen/Bred on date, 0 if hidden hatch: Hatched on date. 0 for eggs or hidden grow: Date hatchling matured into adult. 0 for eggs and hatchlings views, unique, clicks: Should be self explanatory. gender: "Male" or "Female," empty if not yet revealed. hoursleft: Number of hours until egg dies. -1 if hidden, frozen, or adult, -2 if dead. parent_f: NOT father, actually means female parent, or mother. parent_m: Male parent/father.```Here you go, this is the available information.
