gollark: I mean, generally speaking, any player can remove about 16-24 generic eggs from the cave per day and then dump them somewhere, with about 10 minutes of work. Obviously, if you want to gather nongeneric ones you either need more time or lower targets.
gollark: It'd be pointless.
gollark: The 16-24 eggs a day thing is that you can gather eggs from the cave, then wait five hours, then trade/gift/dump then, then do it again maybe twice more.
gollark: None!
