''A white egg from a bird.''
  
A small '''egg''' laid by a [[hen]] which can be eaten raw or used in [[cooking]]. Eggs are always [[quality]] 99. If eggs are left outside, they will [[decay]]. When they fully decay, a [[chicken]] may hatch.

Eggs will take approximately 30 [[day]]s to hatch if left in your [[inventory]]. Eggs also contain the unusual nondestructive ability to be "sucked", as right-clicking on an egg gives the option to "Suck Egg". This option is only available if you have no item active.
