Fake an Egg hatch Guide: First Pets and Rebirth

Learn how to hatch eggs in Fake an Egg, place pets, earn cash, compare egg prices, and unlock your first Rebirth hatch-speed bonus.

How Hatching Works in Fake an Egg

Your first egg is only useful once its pet starts earning money in your pen. This Fake an Egg hatch guide explains the buy, carry, hatch, and place sequence so you can turn your starting cash into steady income. Follow this Fake an Egg hatch walkthrough to get your Bunny working, avoid placement mistakes, and prepare for your first Rebirth.

Fake an Egg is a Roblox pet game from Slime Time Studios where collecting pets shares the spotlight with disguises and base raids. You can buy eggs, earn money by pretending to be one, or steal pets from rival pens.

Those activities serve different purposes. Buying and hatching eggs builds your collection; disguising earns purchase payouts; stealing brings home an existing pet. Knowing the difference helps you choose what to do next.

The gameplay details below reflect player experience documented in the All Things How Fake an Egg gameplay guide.

Fake an Egg Hatch Walkthrough: Your First Bunny

The opening purchase is straightforward: your reported starting balance is $30, which covers one Common Bunny Egg. Follow the tutorial arrows rather than wandering toward expensive eggs in the central field.

1. Buy the $30 Bunny Egg

Head to the egg stalls and locate the Bunny Egg. Its reported label includes the name, Common rarity, $30 price, and a 60-second timer.

Buy it when the tutorial directs you to do so. Spending your starting balance here gives you the pet needed for the first Rebirth requirement.

Do not mistake the purchase for the end of the process. You still need to transport the egg, hatch it, and place the resulting Bunny.

2. Carry the egg to your own pen

Bring the purchased egg across the map to the pen displaying your username. The tutorial’s homeward prompt helps identify the correct destination.

An egg sitting in your hands is not yet an active income source. Finish the trip before moving on to disguises or exploring another player’s base.

3. Put the egg on an open hatch pad

Inside your pen, find an available nest circle. Reported gameplay shows glowing green and orange circles used as hatch pads.

Place the egg there when the hatching prompt appears. Follow the on-screen instructions rather than dropping it elsewhere in the pen and assuming the process has started.

4. Place the Bunny after it hatches

Once the egg opens, complete the prompt to place your Bunny. This is a separate step, and it matters: the pet needs to be positioned in your pen to begin producing cash.

Open the Slots menu to check your active pets. Then watch your balance to confirm that income is arriving.

Step	What to check	Why it matters
Purchase	You bought the Bunny Egg	It is the starter purchase and first Rebirth hatch requirement
Transport	You reached the pen with your username	Eggs must be brought home before hatching
Hatch	The egg is on an available nest circle	The hatch interaction happens inside your pen
Placement	You completed the pet-placement prompt	Hatching alone does not finish the setup
Verification	Bunny appears in Slots and cash increases	Confirms that your first pet is working

The most useful Fake an Egg hatch tip for beginners is to complete this entire sequence before starting another activity. A working Bunny gives you an income source while you learn the rest of the map.

Egg Prices, Timers, and What to Buy Next

After your Bunny is earning, the Cat Egg is an accessible next purchase. Its reported price is $47, making it a much smaller financial step than the Rare eggs listed below.

The available player-experience guide records several egg labels, but it does not provide a complete egg catalog, drop-rate chart, or verified incubation schedule.

Egg	Reported rarity	Reported price	Timer shown on label
Bunny Egg	Common	$30	60 seconds
Cat Egg	Not specified	$47	Not specified
Wolf Egg	Rare	$15,000	45 seconds
Badger Egg, ACID RAIN variant	Rare	$81,000	40 seconds
Spinosaurus Egg	Legendary	$8.7 million	40 seconds

Treat those timer values as label information, not confirmed hatch durations. The reference does not establish exactly what every displayed countdown measures. Check the live hatch interface before planning around a specific waiting period.

Make affordable upgrades first

For early progression, compare what you can buy now with how long a larger purchase would leave you waiting. The reported Wolf Egg costs 500 times as much as the starter Bunny Egg: $15,000 versus $30.

That price gap makes smaller purchases worth considering while your income is limited. However, price alone does not establish value. Without verified income figures for each pet, there is no reliable way to calculate which egg offers the best return.

A practical Fake an Egg hatch strategy is to:

Keep your first Bunny placed and earning.
Consider the affordable Cat Egg as a second purchase.
Check your available space before bringing home another egg.
Read the current price and rarity rather than relying entirely on an older guide.
Review Rebirth requirements before committing to a large purchase.

Check your Index as the collection grows

The reported Index tracks 83 species and offers cash rewards for claimable collection milestones. That count may change with updates, so use the live Index as your reference.

Check it after discovering new species. A claimable milestone can contribute to your next purchase, but do not assume every individual hatch awards a separate cash bonus.

Earn Money Between Hatches and Fix Common Problems

Your Fake an Egg hatch routine does not need to consist of standing beside a nest. Once your placed pets are earning, disguises offer another way to build your balance.

Use the green pipe to become an egg

Enter the green pipe in your pen to open the disguise selection menu. Choose an unlocked egg appearance and activate it, then move into the central field among the real eggs.

The reported Bunny Egg disguise awards $30 when purchased by another player or an AI bot. That is a purchase-triggered reward, not $30 per second.

Pet income and disguise income therefore work differently: placed pets produce ongoing cash, while a disguise pays when someone buys you. Check the displayed payout before selecting an appearance.

Understand the risk of stealing

You can also take a pet from a rival pen and carry it home. The reward is not secured just because you picked it up; you must reach your own pen without being stopped.

The same threat applies to your collection. Other players can target pets in your base, so pay attention to your pen while exploring.

Reported player experience includes a Common Rainbow Dog labeled $30 per second. That example shows why rarity alone is not enough to judge income: a variant can be more valuable than its broad rarity suggests. It does not establish the payout for every Dog or every Rainbow pet.

Situation	Likely point to check	Recommended action
You bought an egg but have no new pet	Transportation is unfinished	Carry the egg to your own pen
The egg has not started hatching	Hatch-pad placement	Use an open nest circle and follow the prompt
A hatched Bunny is not earning	Final pet placement	Complete the placement prompt, then check Slots
Your disguise has not paid	No purchase has occurred	Wait among the eggs for a player or bot to buy you
A stolen pet is not in your setup	The return trip is unfinished	Get it back to your pen
A displayed timer seems inconsistent	The timer’s purpose is unclear	Follow the current hatch interface rather than assuming

These checks cover the documented interaction sequence. They are not confirmed fixes for every bug. If a prompt fails despite completing the required steps, avoid spending more cash until you understand what the game is asking you to do.

First Rebirth: Requirements and Hatch-Speed Rewards

The first major progression target combines hatching with earning. According to the reported Rebirth screen, you need to hatch one Bunny Egg and meet the $750 cash requirement.

Watch the live requirement indicators and confirm when the game marks both as complete. The documented interface announces when Rebirth is available.

For your first Fake an Egg hatch progression milestone, this is more useful than chasing an expensive egg immediately: Rebirth unlocks bonuses that affect subsequent play.

Rebirth 1 item	Reported requirement or reward
Bunny Egg requirement	Hatch one
Cash requirement	$750
Cash multiplier reward	1.5×
Hatch-speed reward	1.05×
Pet Feed reward	Uncommon
Feeder access	Unlocked
Reset behavior	Cash resets; pets are retained

What the hatch-speed bonus means

The reported 1.05× hatch-speed multiplier is a modest improvement, not an instant-hatch feature. The reference does not document the exact timing formula, so avoid assuming a precise reduction in seconds.

The more important early benefit is the overall progression package: a cash multiplier, a hatch-speed increase, and access to feeding.

What to do after rebirthing

Your pets remain, according to the documented reset message, but your cash resets. That makes having active pets before confirming especially useful.

Afterward:

Confirm that your pets are still listed and earning.
Locate the newly unlocked Feeder.
Use available Pet Food there to improve pet income.
Check the next Rebirth requirements.
Resume buying eggs and expanding your collection.

The reported Feeder starts at 1× pet cash before food increases its effect. Check its current display rather than assuming a particular food item grants a fixed bonus.

FAQ

How do I complete my first Fake an Egg hatch?

Buy the $30 Bunny Egg, carry it to your username-labeled pen, and place it on an open hatch pad. After it opens, complete the Bunny placement prompt. Check Slots and your cash balance to verify that the pet is active.

Does the Bunny Egg take exactly 60 seconds to hatch?

The reported Bunny Egg label displays 60 seconds, but the available reference does not independently verify that this is its incubation duration. Use the live hatch prompt or countdown for timing instead of treating the shop label as definitive.

Does Rebirth remove my pets?

The documented Rebirth message says that only cash resets, so pets are retained. First Rebirth also grants a 1.5× cash multiplier, a 1.05× hatch-speed multiplier, Uncommon Pet Feed, and Feeder access. Recheck the confirmation screen before accepting in case an update changes the rules.

Should I buy more eggs or save for Rebirth?

Get your Bunny placed first, then compare an affordable addition with your progress toward $750. A Cat Egg is a reported low-cost option, but there is no verified income chart proving an optimal purchase order. Let your active income and the live Rebirth requirements guide the decision.
