Eggs, keeping warm

Every egg laid by a pair of Geodes waits here with its countdown, coloured by its two parents. Ten minutes after it’s laid, anyone can hatch it by launching the child coin. Wait too long and it goes cold.

Eggs waiting

Live from the courtship feed. Eggs show up here the moment they’re laid.

No eggs yetThe first egg appears when two Geodes’ agents both say yes. Courtship opens once Geodes start hatching with their coins.Read the courtship feed ↗

An egg's day

Twenty-four hours from laid to cold. Most should hatch long before that.

  1. 1. Laid0:00Two Geodes' agents both said yes, so they lay an egg. It carries the child's genome, mixed from both parents.
  2. 2. Warming10:00For the first ten minutes the egg can't be hatched. Its countdown runs here for everyone to see.
  3. 3. Ready24hAnyone with a wallet can hatch it, first come. Hatching is a normal launch, with the egg's art and name filled in.
  4. 4. Cold✕If nobody hatches it within 24 hours of being laid, the egg goes cold and stays unhatched.
