Free Eggs For Newbies

I used to message new players (I defined new as under a month of playing, whether they just joined or joined a while ago but only now made their starter) and offer them a free egg. But I missed a lot of people like this, and I'd like as many new players as possible to feel welcomed.

With this thread, I'm hoping to be able to give more new players a free egg and find people who also want to give free eggs to new players. If you're interested in helping, please fill out the Helper Form below.


Please ping me. You can ping me by clicking the blue @ at the bottom right of this post. Feel free to message me in my inbox! I'm happy to try and answer any questions you may have.


Both Forms will likely change over time to be better.

Helper Form:
Username: Orcastration
What traits are you unwilling to breed?: Any is fine.
Are you alright giving away PBs?: Sure....mostly
Are there any Stables/Tabs that are completely off-limits?: Try to avoid my sales tab and Orca's Picks.
What Species do you breed?: Mostly Qitari, Puffadore, and Zolnixi, but check my stables.

Helper Form:
Username: Earthprotector49
What traits are you unwilling to breed?: None. As long as I have pets with them, I'm willing to breed for them.
Are you alright giving away PBs?: As long as both the pets in the pair are originally mine, sure.
Are there any stables that are completely off-limits?: No, not really.
What Species do you breed?: Aeridini (limited number of pairs), Nyvene, Lupora, Zolnixi, Ryori (one non-themed pair ATM), Sylvorpa, Morkko, Aurleon, Qitari (limited number of pairs), Draeyl, Nytekrie, Faelora, Vulnyx (limited number of pairs), Lighira (one non-themed pair currently), and Ferrikki (one Volcanic Glacier pair).
Comment: Most of the pets I currently have, save for one non-themed Nyte pair & my one (non-themed) Ryori pair, are, at most, 3-vis. So just a heads up that trait options are pretty limited at present, at least if you want a pet with only visible traits. Having said that, I also have quite a few, mostly themed, pets without a mate of the same theme, so if you don't mind an offspring from a themed & non-themed mating and/or a mating of two different themed pets, I can do that, too.

Helper Form:
Username: Marionettez
What traits are you unwilling to breed?: As long as I have it, ill breed it.
Are you alright giving away PBs?: Yep! Nothing else to do with my themes anyways
Are there any Stables/Tabs that are completely off-limits?: Not really. All of the stuff in my 2nd stable isn't themed but there is a few pairs on the last tab in there
What Species do you breed?: A lot, but mostly Ferrikki, Lupora, Ryori, Sylvorpa, Vulnyx, and Zolnixi. Other than those I have themed for 1 Aurleon, 1 Draeyl, a few Bulboris, 3 different Faeloras, 3 Griffis, quite a few Kelparis, 2 Lighiras, a few Luffoxes, 1 Morkko, 1 Ny'Vene, 2 Nyketries, and 1 Puffadore. (Oh goodness that's a lot)

Comment: Some of my pets have set mates I will only breed with each other. I tend to breed my themed females only with males of that theme if I have them. I will have it in my bio if I am about to breed all my pets. I usually breed once a week, for reference.

Are you alright giving away PBs?: Yup!
Are there any Stables/Tabs that are completely off-limits?: Nope!

Helper Form:
Username: T1g3r

Are there any Stables/Tabs that are completely off-limits?: Yes: Main
What Species do you breed?: Any non-fabled, but mostly Zolnixi, Aurleon, Qitari, and occasionally Lupora.
Comment: I love to help out newer players, breed pets, and give them away. A lot of the time (but not always!), I breed my pets to other players' pets, so if you want that, just tell me the other player's pet ID# (along with my pet, of course). I don't have any set breeding pairs right now and am willing to breed any of my pets. I also give away equipment, avatar items, and consumables to players level 50 and below. Ask me any questions.

Helper Form:
Username: Raidenei
What traits are you unwilling to breed?: Only the ones I don't own.
Are you alright giving away PBs?: Yep! As that's most of what I have.
Are there any Stables/Tabs that are completely off-limits?: Nope!
What Species do you breed?: I think it might go faster if I say what I don't breed(because I don't have pairs or I just don't like the species) I don't have any Bulboris, Luffoxes, Lunemaras, Morkkos, or Nytekries. I only have one Nephini, but I am willing to breed outside of my stables for him.
Comment: I love trying to help new players, but usually don't get to because I don't know how to answer their questions or my anxiety kicks in. So glad I can here!

Extra Information

Please be patient when receiving an egg.
The helpers aren't on 24/7, some may only come on once every few weeks. Please be understanding and wait until they get back to you. As long as you asked a helper for an egg before your account passed what I would consider a "newbie" you will still get an egg.

Hi! Thank you for joining! I'm sure you'll be a great help. Thank you also for the suggestion. I should clarify that the question "What Species do you breed?" is for if a Newbie is looking for specific species. So, if it's alright, could you change that part to something like All or All except xy? Just so a newbie can know what species people have.
