Does anyone else love piggies? <3

So, I have like this strange love for them, and I go out of my way taking a piggy from two worlds away just to get it into my home. Does anyone else have like 10 pigs in their house? Going to capture some more. >:D But I want to get my own, but now since I have my house and go to the animal goods vendor, the eggs aren't there. Why? :c I was going to buy a bunch, now I just have to kidnap them. :L

  • You can buy eggs from the auctions.  Hand crafted by another Glitchen. 

    I will send you an egg in-game.  I make a lot - auction some, give some away and deposit lots on streets.

  • Thanks. I'm going to unimaginable territory, so I've emptied my inventory, just in case the Rooks steal. Never been there. Have no idea what they do. xD

  • I <3 piggies. Piglets especially (*)

    The piggy animations are some of my favourite. They wiggle so adorably. And the "sorry I'm all nibbled out" look? Awwwww :-)

    As for eggs, yes, head to the auctions.

    There's a general desire from the devs to gradually remove from the vendors things that you can make for yourself. Not to suggest that you have to make them yourself, but to encourage player-player trading via the auctions.

    (*) it should be noted that I would never, of my own free will, toss a piglet into a shrine. Oh no... if you thought you ever saw that, it must have been someone else. Someone else with my name.

  • I just realized I need a chicken to incubate the egg, and I'm just learning Animal Kinship IV. Does it need to be your chicken to incubate the egg? P:

  • Ahhh - without AK4 you can't learn Animal Husbandry and without Animal Husbandry you can't ask a chicken to incubate for you. However you could give an egg to someone else to give to a chicken. They'll get the piglet which (fingers crossed) they'll hand over to you.

    Hmmmm - there might be an issue with feeding the piglet to grow it into a full-grown piggy... I'm not certain if that part's going to be a problem or not.

  • It will be safe in your bag or cabinet until you finish learning.  When you give it to a chicken to incubate, just stand there waiting.  My first egg, I wandered around and when I got back seconds later, the piglet was gone.  (no, I do not want to know what happened to it.  I want to imagine it happily romping in a meadow somewhere safe from rooks.)

  • Piggies are awesome... I have 23 of them in my house and they are my cute little meat factories... but there is just something a little disturbing about taking meat from a still living pig....
