Description
A white egg from a bird.
Eggs
- Eggs decay similarly to other food items and can be used in numerous recipes.
- Can be found by Foraging at Critter nest Resource nodes.
- Eggs found through foraging vary in quality, depending on your foraging skill.
- Eggs also offer the unusual nondestructive ability to be "sucked", as right-clicking on an egg gives the option to Suck Egg. It will give you a weird feeling. This option is only available if you have no item active.
Fertile Eggs
- "Fertile eggs" offer a chance to hatch a baby chick; regular "eggs" do not.
- Fertile eggs can be found by foraging or can be produced by a hen in a chicken coop or outside of a chicken coop. Chances of producing fertile eggs are much higher in hens stored in a chicken coop.
- Roughly 10% - 20% of fertile eggs will hatch into chicks, though this percentage is believed to vary based on creature populations.
- To attempt to hatch an egg, lay a fertile egg on any tile and allow it to decay. When it eventually reaches 100 damage, the fertile egg will either hatch a baby chick or decay to dust without any hatchling being produced.
- Fertile eggs can be stored in a food storage bin but immediately turn to regular eggs which cannot be hatched.
- Renaming the fertile egg sets the name for the hatched chick if a chick does successfully hatch. However, it does not keep the name when it becomes a hen or rooster
