@lexian thank you for doing this for new players! I think 5-6 creatures is enough because some new players quit after a short time and the creatures would be in danger of dying (unless you also give immortals)

lexian • 26 June 2026 at 6:49 AM

@gngdia - That Makes sense! 😄 I've only ever managed to get a few Immortals on my Main, so dropping the number down to 6 Beasties takes the pressure off of trying to make everything Immortal - It also means with less Beasties in a Lot, I can make Even More Trades for New Users 😊

I'll get onto that now 😄👍

gngdia • 26 June 2026 at 6:52 AM

@lexian exactly! hope the new users will see the trades and take advantage! ❤️

@gngdia Finger's Crossed 🤞😄

The Link Above 'Should' still take Users to @Elijah's Trades, they'll have 2 Rarer Beasties and 4 Common/Current Releases, I've kept it at 10 Trades for now as I don't want to Flood the Trade Page, but the Benefit of Dropping it down to 6 Beasties now is that I've got A Good Few left over for when things start picking up 😁🎁

This is such a sweet and thoughtful thing to do!

@lexian Just a thought, but do you take donations for your newbie trades? I tend to get cave monthlies in excess and I'd be happy to put aside a couple to send to you for this purpose from time to time.

@kataclysm I need to try and get a little more space on @elijah but I'm certainly not against donations - Especially if they help make the Trades more appealing to the New Users 😊👍 I can always trade you a few Commons in Exchange for them as well 😁

I'm new, and this is a lovely thing you're trying to do here, but personally it's a bit over facing. I would like two of them, and not even from the same groups, but not five.

The other three that I didn't want would just make me kind of stressed, every time I saw them ☹️

lexian • 17 July 2026 at 8:32 AM

@ygaria That's absolutely no Problem! Thanks lots for Saying! (It's all one Huge Learning Curve for me) - So perhaps Split them up into twos? Maybe 3 at a Push 🤔 (What are the two Beasties you Fancied? I can send them over for you if you like?) 😄

@lexian

I'd like the kleebet and a mollassus. I've got a bit of a cake thing going on (who doesn't like cake eh?)

But yes, I think you should split them.

Seven is a lot when you're starting out and don't know what anything is or aren't that sure what it will look like.

If you go to the cave regularly as well, which I did when I started, it's easy to feel swamped by eggs if you don't feel you can leave any behind.

lexian • 17 July 2026 at 8:48 AM

@ygaria - Gotta Love Cake 😋🍰

I know what you mean by feeling Swamped - Especially as you've gotta feed all these guys as well! I'd definitely feel guilty if I couldn't care for them all/have to leave someone behind because Managing Online/Work/Life is Tricky.. 😅

What I'll do then, is set up One Large Trade with a Selection of Beasties New Folks can pick from, then they can post their selection Here and I can literally just send them over 😄 (Speaking of which, you should Hopefully have received a One Way Request from @Elijah with your Beasties) 😊🎁

elijah • 29 July 2026 at 9:26 AM

I Recently won a Auction with Multiple Bulbrigar - I have now added them to the List for New Users to Choose From 😊🎁

Henlo!
I hope I'm doing this right!
May I adopt these three cuties?
https://eggcave.com/egg/2933688
https://eggcave.com/egg/2951602
https://eggcave.com/egg/2775060

I did buy this thing from the Cash Shop that always keeps everything at 100%, so they should not be able to die.
Luckily I was here when they gave out the CC for the Anniversary 😊

Thank you very much!
And please let me know if three is too much, I will cut it down to two!

lexian • 2 August 2026 at 9:45 AM

Three is Absolutely Fine! 😊
Gimmie a sec and I'll log onto Elijah and send 'em over 😄👍

@leovoli - You should Hopefully have a 'Transfer Request' with them now 😄

leovoli • 2 August 2026 at 9:52 AM

I did! Thank you very much! 😊

elijah • 3 August 2026 at 7:42 AM

Last Night I went through All Beasties Currently up for Giftage and gave them all Unique Names (I left some Names as they were already Unique) but thought it'd be a bit more Fun/Appealing if Those Adopting had a nicer name than just 'uft_birdyface' (random example haha) 🤣💚

I could be wrong of course, but it helped me waste a good half hour that would have otherwise been used Overthinking! 🤞😇

lexian • 18 August 2026 at 7:36 AM

Seeing as it's a "Make 3 Forum Posts" Quest Day, I wanted to use one of my Posts to say that the 'Free Creature Gifts for New Users' is still Very Much Open, there are still Loads of Beasties up for New Folks to Select.

As @Elijah's Account is getting rather full and I will undoubtedly need room for Newer Beasties to add to the 'Free Gifts' Section, I'm not against Older Users making offers for 'Some' of those I have large Multiples of - just be aware that the Section is designed to be something 'Nice' for Newer Users to have, so I can't let all the Good Ones go 😅🤣

Could I get just this one?
I do not think I can handle a lot...
