Eggs
Eggs are arguably the core of PokéFarm Q with the site being based around hatching Pokémon eggs. Every single basic-stage Pokémon has a unique egg in which they hatch from.
Obtaining an Egg
You can either obtain them from the Lab, the Shelter, or the DayCare. All users can adopt as many Eggs as they want from the lab. As for the Shelter, you have a limited amount of Pokémon or Eggs you can take per day (this depends on which Shelter Pass you are in possession of), and for the DayCare you must breed two compatible Pokémon for any possible eggs, though you are only allowed to take one per day without a DayCare Pass. The numbers of Eggs, if any, a pair produces, is dependent on several factors which mimic the main series Pokémon games.(citation needed) Parents have to be compatible in order to produce Eggs; this can be achieved by either using two Pokémon of the same species or using two Pokémon that are compatible by Egg Group. In-depth information on this can be found on Bulbapedia. In addition, a Ditto Egg can only be found within the Lab and cannot breed with other Ditto.
Hatching an Egg
Certain Eggs hatch faster than others. Common Pokémon such as Pichu and Magikarp only need a limited amount of interactions, while rare or legendary Eggs such as Xerneas or Moltres need much more in order to hatch. Eggs gain hatch points when they are clicked. Off of any beneficial bonus days and without a V~ boost, the EHP an egg receives is 50 for a normal user, and 70 for a user with an active Hypermode. Once an egg has enough interactions it is able to hatch, which can be done via its summary page or the user's Party.

Elta's note: PokéFarm's official Wiki never had a list of Eggs because it was against the rules (Spoiling). You're hereby implying that you've been using off-site guides.
Niet's note: That said, PFQ's Spoiler rules are more relaxed. Provided you actually use spoilers properly.</spoiler>
Egg Types
You can determine the type of Pokémon from the description of an Egg using the chart below. There are, however, many eggs that use irregular descriptions and do not conform to the below table.
