Steal and Fish Eggs: How to Hatch Them and What They Do

Yes — you can get mysterious eggs by fishing in Steal and Fish. "Fish for mysterious eggs" is one of the activities the game itself lists under How to play, right alongside boss battles and fights with other players. And once an egg is yours, the loop is the same no matter how you got it: carry it back to your base, place it down, wait out its timer, and it starts paying you money.

What to do with an egg once you have one

1. Carry it to your base and place it inside. Eggs hatch in your base — placement there is the requirement.
2. Wait out its readiness timer. Each egg has its own. Eggs observed in play needed roughly one to two minutes — one about 1:00, another 1:30, a third a full 2:00 — so read the timer shown on your egg instead of assuming a fixed duration.
3. Let it hatch. When the timer runs out, something emerges from inside the egg.
4. Leave it placed to earn. An egg kept in your base pays Money passively over time. One egg was seen generating $44 per second — that's a single example, not a standard rate.

The recorded run below shows that exact loop from the player's side: hauling an egg back to base, waiting out its timer, and collecting what it pays.

Eggs are not all identical

Eggs vary in both hatch time and Money output, and one egg was distinctly "expensive" and treated as worth going after. So judge each egg on its own: read its timer, and check what it pays once it's placed in your base.

When your base fills up

Your base only holds so many eggs. When it's full, sell some — pick the sell option and confirm — to free up space and keep collecting new ones.

Getting eggs: fishing vs. stealing

Fishing is the calm route: eggs are simply one of the things you can catch, as a core advertised activity, and none of the hazards below apply to a fish caught on your line.

The loud route is stealing eggs from guarded creatures. That one comes with real dangers:

• Some guarded eggs can't be taken until you've upgraded your speed enough.
• The guardian chases whoever carries the egg — and can kill them.
• You can drop the egg mid-chase to escape, but a dropped egg can even get snatched up by the boss.

Either way, a stolen or fished egg ends up in the same place: placed in your base, ticking toward hatch, and paying you while it waits. For free rewards along the way, check the current Steal and Fish codes.
