I do kinda like the idea that Jafar could be the father, esp if they do bring on his shape shifting abilities and as Jafar does change into a snake in the film so I don't see any real reason they could not make him the father. (Dragons can sooooo interspecies with any animal the writers think will match and snakes or lizards would work more logical then say a horse but it is a fantasy show so who knows lol)

Until I read this this thread my head canon was that the father was a pinkish/red dragon that was seen just flying away from the first curse when Grumpy rings the huge bell. This made sense to me considering that it was just before the curse was cast that Malificent realised she was pregant and the whole swaping the evil from Emma to this uncracked egg. The father could be still close by Malificent and transformed to a dragon to escape the curse, maybe finding a way through the boundaries of Fairy Tale Land and Earth and shaking up shop in China (AKA the Dragon).

However now I have read the thread I am more then willing to accept that Jafar could be the father. :)
