To Hatch or Not to Hatch? The math behind probability and profit.

Egg Analysis

Egg Analyzer

Compare the value of keeping it sealed vs cracking it open.

Understanding the Inputs

Egg Name: Select whether your egg is a "Permanent" egg (Royal) or "Limited" egg (Urban/Danger). Limited eggs often have higher sealed value.

Quantity: How many eggs do you own? We calculate the total portfolio value.

Formula Used

We compare Trading Value VS Expected Value:

EV = ∑ (Oddspet × Valuepet)

If EV is lower than the Sealed Price, the verdict is "Do Not Hatch".

To Hatch or Not to Hatch? The Economics of Adopt Me Eggs

Why a sealed Aussie Egg is worth a Turtle, but a hatched Aussie Egg is usually worth a Bandicoot.

The Paradox of the Sealed Egg

In Adopt Me!, eggs are distinct asset classes. Unlike pets, which have a fixed identity, an egg represents Potential. This potential is what drives the price up.

When you hold an Aussie Egg (from 2020), traders are paying for the possibility of getting a Turtle or Kangaroo. That possibility is exciting. The moment you hatch it and a common Bandicoot pops out, that excitement (and value) evaporates instantly.

The "Gambler's Premium"

Data shows that unhatched eggs trade for roughly 30% to 50% more than the statistical average value of the pets inside.

Example (Theoretical Values):

  • Sealed Egg Value: 5.0 Points
  • Inside Pets Average Value: 3.2 Points
  • Loss on Hatch: -1.8 Points

This means every time you hatch an out-of-game egg, you are statistically burning money. You are paying a "premium" for the fun of gambling.

Investment Strategy: The "Hold"

The smartest rich players in Adopt Me do not hatch eggs. They hoard them.

The Gumball Cycle:

  1. Buy: Purchase 50+ of the current Gumball Machine egg (e.g. Danger Egg) before it leaves.
  2. Wait: Put them in your inventory and forget about them for 6-12 months.
  3. Profit: When the egg is rare, trade them. Players who joined late will pay huge overpays to experience "old" eggs.

When is Hatching Profitable?

There is only ONE time when hatching is statistically profitable: The Update Hour.

When a new egg is released (Wait... 0 minutes!), the demand for the new pets is infinite. If you hatch a Legendary in the first 15 minutes of an update, you can trade it for a Shadow Dragon or massive value. But after 24 hours, the value stabilizes and hatching becomes a loss again.

Summary

Mathematically, you should almost ALWAYS trade sealed eggs rather than hatching them. The only exception is during the first hour of a new update. For old eggs (Aussie, Fossil, Ocean), strictly keep them sealed to preserve value.

FAQs

Why are Unhatched Eggs worth more than Hatched pets?

This is due to the 'Gambler's Premium'. People will pay extra for the *chance* of getting a Legendary, even if the statistical average result is a low-value Common. Once you hatch it and get a Common, that 'potential' value disappears instantly.

Are old eggs like Aussie Eggs worth hatching?

Almost never. An Aussie Egg currently trades for decent Legendaries. If you hatch it, you have a 30% chance of getting a Bandicoot (worth almost nothing). You destroy 90% of the value by hatching old eggs unless you get extremely lucky.

What is the best egg to buy for profit?

The 'Gumball Machine' egg (the limited time one, currently Desert/Urban etc.) is usually the best. Buy them, hold them for 6 months until they leave the game, and their value will rise. Royal Eggs never leave, so they never rise in value.

How is 'Hatched Value' calculated?

We take the probability of every pet in the egg (e.g. 5% Leg, 10% Ultra, etc.) and multiply it by the trading value of those pets. We sum it up to get the 'Expected Value' (EV) of one hatch.

When should I hatch an egg?

Hatch eggs if you need 'fodder' pets to make Neons (Common/Uncommon) or if the egg is brand new (first hour of update) and hype is massive. Otherwise, trade them sealed.

Do Named Eggs (e.g. 'Named Jungle Egg') have more value?

Yes, significantly. A 'Named' egg is an untouched egg from 2019 that still has a specific default name/ID. Collectors pay huge overpays for these. Do not hatch them.

Can I get a Diamond Pet from a Royal Egg?

No. Diamond pets only come from the Diamond Egg (Star Rewards). Royal Eggs only contain the standard permanent Legendary pool (Dragon, Unicorn, Dragonfly, etc.).
