IMHO, any blue/green token deck should probably be running Fable of Wolf and Owl, provided you don't care too much about creature types.
My main concern with the current decklist is that Mycoloth is going to have a massive sign on its face that reads "please piff me" (he always does, and when you devour for 10+ like you could do in this deck, he gets a second sign)! It's the card that pushes this deck into bananas territory, so you need to be prepared to recur it and replay it a lot.
You're right, but my copies of Skullclamp are in my Zoo deck haha.
Why don't you proxy them?

We use the Legacy B&R list.
My meta consists of combo, control and some aggro / midrange decks.
My group uses proxies, so budget is not an issue. Because of this, things can get out of hand.

What's the best way to recur Mycoloth in G/U? I only have the 1, so I could cut it without much thought, but if he's an all-star like you say, I'll up his count to 3 and get some support for him.
I also need to find room for 1 more Rite of Replication and 2 more Parallel Lives. I think those are the right numbers, since Rite is basically a win-condition.
After testing this deck it's run into problems with artifacts and enchantments. Of Sundering Vitae, Krosan Grip or Nullmage Shepherd, which do you think is a better fit? Or, do you have a better suggestion?
The Shepherd is easily the strongest card if you can have her/your army survive. In a relatively removal-free meta, you really can't go wrong with her.

Probably depends on how artifact/enchantment heavy your meta is, and whether adding all three borks your curve up.
Maybe playtest with two?
Yeah I'll try two, artifacts/enchantments are becoming more popular among my meta. I think I have a decent amount of draw with Harmonize to be able to dig to the Shepherds. I'll let you guys know how it goes. Thanks for the comments.

I'd like more to have more copies of Rite of Replication and Parallel Lives. Not sure how useful Chatter of the Squirrel is but I wanted more 1 drops. Played 1 game with this deck where I was easily able to cast Crush of Wurms and then a kicked Rite of Replication on said wurm. Game was over shortly thereafter.

Fable of Wolf and Owl looks sweet. What would you take out for it?

Just looking through the Simic cards, I think I'll ad 2x Novijen, Heart of Progress and maybe 1x Leafdrake Roost. Also, do you think Temporal Spring is useful?

I'm thinking about adding 2-3 copies of her. Probably only 2, what should I cut for her? Chatter of the Squirrel or Bestial Menace?

I think I'd be dropping Chatter of the Squirrel, just because Bestial Menace gives you more tokens.
