Hey there peeplings! I'm a new player that joined a little while ago and have been lurking around. Found this place from someone's forum signature on Flight Rising, fell in love with cute critters and here I am!

I think I've got this place mostly figured out, but would like some clarification on stuff since I can't find the answers on the FAQ.

How often do creatures get retired? (Should I be stocking up on particularly beloved species?)
How does the Oasis and Thief Shop work? (I've never seen anything in there, but have only checked a couple of times a day.)
It seems like multiple accounts are allowed per person. Since there's no visiting daily giveaways on side-accounts, is multiple accounts just for cove space/organization?
Is there any other way to check creature prices other than just asking around? Some of the species I'd really like to acquire aren't listed on the AH and only seem to be sold via forum. (Would it be feasible to even try to record/track current prices of creatures?)
What is the point of using items on creatures? Travels, I get, for the visual aspect, but items don't seem to do anything?

Thanks in advance! (So many questions haha.)

Most creatures that are limited edition are released and retired on a monthly basis. The common cave creatures on the other hand, one or two retire every few months so no need to panic on those.

How does the Oasis and Thief Shop work? (I've never seen anything in there, but have only checked a couple of times a day.)
Randomly an egg will spawn of a rare creature. Oasis is 100% and free but the Thief shop is random if you will get anything.

It seems like multiple accounts are allowed per person. Since there's no visiting daily giveaways on side-accounts, is multiple accounts just for cove space/organization?
Just for more space 😊

Is there any other way to check creature prices other than just asking around? Some of the species I'd really like to acquire aren't listed on the AH and only seem to be sold via forum. (Would it be feasible to even try to record/track current prices of creatures?)
No, you have to ask. It always changes and everyone has their own prices.

What is the point of using items on creatures? Travels, I get, for the visual aspect, but items don't seem to do anything?
Gain stats, looks nice, collecting





Egg Cave is a fun adoptables web site where you can adopt creatures, share them, take care of them, and make new friends. Mainly, you can collect and raise over 500 different creatures. You can get creatures daily at the cave. Creatures can die if you don’t feed them but, they will turn immortal at level 2000+, meaning they will not die. You can level up and grow creatures by getting them views, clicks and feeds. Feeding creatures is the most effective way to gain EC or eggcoins (the site’s currency). You can use EC to buy creatures, items and backgrounds called travels.

Words to know:
UFT: Up for Trade
NFT: Not for Trade
TNT: Transfer not Trade (do not offer)
UFA: Up for Auction or Up for Adoption
EC: Egg Coins (Currency - free)
CC: Cave Cash (Currency - costs real money)
CSP: Cash Shop Park Creature
TA: Travel Agency
PM: Private Message

When starting to trade, make sure you read peoples’ profiles and the creature profiles before asking them if something is UFT. I recommend learning how much a creature or item is worth before trying to trade for it.

How to feed quickly:
Follow these steps:
1) Ctrl+click all the eggs
2) Click the first tab
3) Feed the egg
4) Hit ctrl+w
5) Keep your mouse in the same place (food) and continue clicking then ctrl+w

To get started, I would check out the Help & FAQ section at http://eggcave.com/explore/faq
Rules can be found here: http://eggcave.com/guidelines

If you have any questions feel free to ask!

Make sure you reply to people by clicking the bell or putting an @ symbol in front of their name so they get a notification called a ping. You can practice pinging me.

Have a great time on Egg Cave!
