FAQ

Is the five-minute cycle confirmed?
It is the interval the community has measured repeatedly on uninterrupted servers, with a few seconds of drift. The game does not publish an official number, so the box is editable.
Does the timer work if I switch tabs?
Yes. It stores the last spawn time in your browser and keeps counting; if several cycles pass it rolls forward to the next one. Browser notifications need the tab to stay open.
Why no sound?
Browsers block audio that the user did not start. The notification permission is the reliable way to get an alert while you are in the game window.
Does it track Secret eggs?
Secret eggs are announced in server chat when they appear and follow the same nest cycle, so a countdown to the next rare spawn is the best available warning.

When does the next rare egg spawn?

Watch a Rare-or-better nest. The moment it refills, press Spawn seen now. The timer counts down to the next refill and, if you allow it, sends a browser notification shortly before.

How does it work?

next spawn = last spawn you marked + interval

If the tab was closed for a while, the tool keeps adding the interval until the result is in the future, so it stays aligned with the server as long as the cycle was not interrupted. Server restarts and Admin Abuse resets re-seed the cycle — mark the next spawn you see and it re-aligns.

Why be early?

On a full server up to six other players race the same nest. Standing next to it with a bear trap ready when the countdown hits zero is worth more than any amount of Speed. The escape routine after the grab is in the stealing guide, and which nests are worth camping is in the all eggs list.

What if the cycle looks different from five minutes?

Measure it: mark a spawn, wait for the next, and note the seconds between them. Put that number in the interval box. If a patch changes the cycle for everyone, the biomes page will be updated — the tool itself does not need an update. Once the egg is home, the income calculator shows what it adds.
