Steal An Egg tracker FAQ
Answers about the egg reset timer, observed spawn reports, feed updates, and tracker statistics.
Reset timing
When do eggs reset in Steal An Egg?
Egg spawns follow a shared global five-minute cycle. Scheduled marks fall every five minutes in UTC, such as 12:00, 12:05, and 12:10. The same scheduled eggs are shared globally across servers.
What does the countdown measure?
It counts down to the next scheduled UTC reset mark. It does not wait for a new OCR report and does not predict which egg will appear.
Does the tracker cover hatch timers, shop stock, events, or ability cooldowns?
No. It tracks the global egg spawn cycle and detected egg reports. Shop stock, hatch timers, event cycles, and player ability cooldowns are separate mechanics.
Spawn reports and accuracy
What does 0 eggs mean?
No tracked rare egg reports have been recorded for the current reset. That does not confirm that no eggs spawned. If the feed cannot be refreshed, the tracker shows a separate warning.
What does the number on an egg card mean?
It counts matching detected reports for that egg, rarity, and location during the current reset.
How accurate are the egg spawn reports?
No formal OCR accuracy percentage has been measured. The site operator has not observed a misclassification so far, but reports can be delayed or incorrect.
Can a reported egg already be taken?
Yes. A report may appear after its egg has been taken, so check the game for current availability.
Does the countdown predict an egg, rarity, or location?
No. It follows the next shared reset mark. The tracker reports detections and does not predict a specific spawn.
How does the spawn predictor work?
It compares historical gaps between the same egg's recorded detections. It only shows a one-hour estimate when enough comparable repeat gaps exist. The estimate describes this tracker’s records, not the game’s official spawn odds.
Feed, filters, and status
How often does the collector scan?
The OCR collector checks continuously, every 0.5 seconds. It reads the in-game spawn announcement and matches the recognized text with eggs that can appear at the detected location.
How does the tracker receive new reports?
Current-cycle reports arrive through Supabase Realtime. When you connect, the tracker replays recent reports and then shows new broadcasts as they arrive. A separate cached request loads the latest earlier reports for the past-hour list.
What does Total Eggs Found count?
It is the total number of recorded spawn reports, including repeated egg types from different reset cycles. It is not a count of unique egg types.
What does the collector status show?
It shows the latest stored collector status and last-seen time, not a historical uptime percentage.
Why does the tracker show older results?
If a feed refresh fails while earlier results are available, the tracker keeps the last results and marks the update as delayed. The Earlier eggs list shows up to six reports from roughly the last hour, not a complete archive.
Can I filter by rarity, egg type, or location?
Yes. Use the filters above the spawn cards. Your choices are saved in this browser, and filtering does not change the reported total.
How do I turn on sound notifications?
Use the Sound control beside the spawn list. Your browser may need your first click to unlock audio.
How do I open the Roblox game?
Select an egg card or its Play on Roblox label. Roblox may ask you to sign in or confirm opening the app.
Are the Nitro Race and Butterfly Bloom timers verified?
Yes. Nitro Race starts at :00 and :30 UTC. Butterfly Bloom starts at :15 and :45 UTC.
