A '''resource egg''' is a special [[Dodo Egg|dodo egg]] that comes in 32 different variants. | |||
'' | ==Where Found== | ||
Each type of egg is laid by the respective [[Dodo#Breeding|dodo breed]] or one that is a tier lower or higher. | |||
==Appearance== | |||
They look like dodo eggs, except the texture resembles that of the respective resource. | |||
==Crafting== | |||
All resource eggs can be processed through an [[Egg Extractor|egg extractor]], yielding two of the respective resource. | |||
==Uses== | |||
If left alone on the ground, a resource egg will hatch into the appropriate [[Dodo#Breeding|dodo breed]] within a couple of days. Resource eggs in a blockhead's [[inventory]], in a [[container]], or dropped on the ground as a loose item will not hatch. If placed, they will hatch, even indoors or underground. It is possible to do dodo breed [[farming]] this way. | |||
To reach a higher tier, a blockhead needs to have two same-type dodos with each other (for example, having two iron dodos can produce a gold egg). Otherwise, they can only lay a respective dodo breed or one that is a tier lower (for example, having one titanium dodo can produce either a titanium egg or gold egg). | |||
Unlike Dodo Eggs, resource dodos drop their respective resource once upon their death and never drop [[dodo feathers]] and [[Dodo Eggs|dodo eggs]]. Baby resource dodos do not drop anything upon their death. | |||
If a player wants to farm resource eggs, it is recommended to tame the dodos to prevent them from dying. Laying an egg lowers the dodo's hunger. | |||
== Strategies == | |||
In [[Expert Mode]], resource eggs are very useful, especially during early-middle game. For example, in the 13th upgrade of the workbench, it requires 1 red marble column+1 lapis lazuli column+1 sapphire, so a player needs to obtain the eggs in order: dodo egg --> stone egg --> limestone egg --> marble egg --> red marble egg --> lapis lazuli egg. This is useful if a player did not have protective gear to find lapis lazuli and red marble blocks due to the presence of scorpions and drop bears. | |||
A player can also obtain titanium and platinum ores without needing to mine, so using resource eggs are also helpful to obtain them. | |||
==Trivia== | |||
* Resource eggs were introduced in [[Game updates/20180314|version 1.7]]. | |||
