shout out to @sevenleaf for making me aware this site STILL EXISTED and also planting this idea in my head, lol

oh now i think i gotta get back to raising dragons LOL

update i caved

haha, caved, get it, like the name of the website--

This sounds really fun but I do not need any more things to waste my time on, thank you very much, I'm doing badly enough at that already

I wanna be cool too! How do you do it?

@briank913
step 1: make an account (aiko linked the website already!)
step 2: steal some defenseless eggs from their mothers (or be a good citizen and take from the abandoned pile), all accessible from the home page
step 3: put the bbcode for your eggs in your signature
step 4: hope they dont die

though if we're being real i don't think just this site alone is gonna do all the work (especially since signatures aren't visible to logged-out users so we can't even exploit the 100+ guestbots). so i also put my eggs on a fansite lol

How much "feeding" do these eggs need? I can't find that info on the site.

Yeah, they're pretty tight-lipped about the specifics of how much they need (and how much is too much before they get sick). What we do know is these days sticking them in one forums signature isn't enough, so you can also add them to one of many hatchery fansites to get them more views.

Those hatchery fansites work really well but sometimes too well so just be sure to check them every so often to make sure they haven't gotten sick from too many views (honestly I have only had this happen like, twice iirc) and if they do you can hide them so they can recover.

I see why people did this trend. Clicking on all the little egss is fun!
