| This article is about an older version of DF. |
In dwarf fortress, eggs are laid by creatures with the Template:L token. This includes ordinary fowl, and also some more exotic creatures such as Template:Ls, Template:Ls, Template:Ls, and many others. Eggs can be used by dwarves as Template:L, or they can be hatched. Hatching eggs requires that a male of the species be present (though this does not appear to guarantee fertilization) and that the dwarves are prevented from eating the egg before it hatches. Also if the egg is taken out of the nest box but not eaten it will just rot and not hatch.
Egg laying animals will claim an empty Template:L if one is available.
