I agree with Valtien and Miez that there should be some kind of egg sink. Non-legendary egg prices have plummeted, and legends may be soon to follow with the Patreon bonus.

Rather than a straight sellback for eggs, I prefer the idea of egg quests. Have any of you ever played a petsite called Rescreatu? It has eggs as well. There is a quest giver that asks for a certain type of egg. His quests come one at a time and are unique to each user. Also, they don't have an expiration time, so you can do them at your leisure, especially if you need to bid on or hunt for a specific type of egg. When you are able to bring him one, you get points to use in his special shop, which is filled with items exclusively available from him (including an exclusive egg!).

Actually, if I recall correctly, Rescreatu's quest giver doesn't ask for an egg but instead asks for a specific color of a specific pet (in Pixpet's case, it would be something like "rose Troffinch" rather than just "Troffinch egg"). This could be another way to have a pet sink and would encourage users to hatch their eggs to try to hunt for that specific color. However, it would really need to come with a way to sell or trade pets themselves, or else it is easy for people to get stuck on a quest for a very long time.

To prevent people getting stuck (like, for instance if you got a quest for a Green Unicub aka 1%), or if you just want to opt out of a really hard quest, there could be an option to abandon a quest? With a penalty of a certain amount of time before you could accept a new quest, to prevent people from just spam abandoning/accepting new quest until they got one for a pet they have.

I like the idea of it being a timeless quest, though! Less of a rush and the chance of not being able to complete a quest since eggs take a while to hatch.

An additional idea I'd add to this would be to have the option to pick a difficulty level of quest? For instance, if you really want a challenge for better rewards/more points, you could pick a harder quest and be given a quest to get a Green Unicub (1%), or a legendary but with a low % colour or something. That way you can't go in as a more casual player and get a quest that would be way too far for you to complete, and then have to wait if you choose to abandon it, etc.

To prevent people from spamming easy difficulty quests, there could also be a cooldown of some kind between when you complete a quest and when you can pick up another, etc.
