A bit frustrated eggwise....

Okay, so I've been collecting various eggs of all sorts of creatures. Somewhere I had read that Venos make lots of money doing this. But that, of course, was before I learned about the rare pets and the all class pets. So now I have this huge collection of eggs that are basically worthless. I think I've sold like maybe three of them via auction. Is there any point in collecting eggs that aren't part of a recipe for an all class pet? I enjoy the taming part... I once tamed like three creatures in a row just for fun, but I was hoping I could turn them into coins... Does anyone have any thought about this? Is there just no point collecting these battle pets?

And speaking of all class pets, I finally got one thanks to some kind soul selling Supreme Foxwings in Archosaur for 10000 each. I already had the rest of the recipe so I got to put the Baby Foxwing for auction last night. :D

    The truth is, a majority of the venomancer pet eggs are worthless. The only times I tame a mob for an egg is when its a rare pet, i need it, or one of my friends need it.

    Yeah. I gave up selling them. I gave them all away in Archosaur a few minutes ago by the pet manager. I watched and I think most of them got picked up. :)

    I think I might keep catching the ordinary mobs and giving them away. It's so fun to tame them and I love to see people pick them up. I'll just be the Easter Bunny for a while til I get tired of it. :D

    At one time, before this version came up, it was possible to NPC eggs for quite a nice sum of coins. The higher the mob's level, the higher the value was.

    But an update brougth all the prices of eggs to 1 coin each, so....

    If I see a creature that I rarely see on the market, I tame it, then sell it. (humanoids, beetles, undines, turtles, etc..)

    If I pass by a creature I know is in high demand, I tame 1 passing by, I may tame another of a different 'needed' sort if its close by. (flyers, golems)

    All these sell well, though, I don't ask for much, since not much is actually being done. (usually ask for 1-2k per pet, since it costs 500 to send it to my alt.)

    It's not a get rich scam to be sure, but I don't really see the value in rare pets either, since it looks like many of the starter pets are infinitely more powerful.
    Funny thing is, people buy rare pets to be rare, but it's the Veno with the set of starter pets her level that is the true rarity, everyone and their mom has a 'rare' pet.

    I always tame them and then offer them to people that might want or need them. I figure it's a nice thing to do and I like taming them soo xD

    EDIT: I don't like the rare pets really.
    I'm quite happy with my sharp tooth kitten and treeline wolfin. If could never get rid of them because I'd feel guilty and annoyed because they're at my level and have their loyalty to the max pretty much.

    K. I just bought a baby antelope from Mrs. Zoologist and i got the baby antelope in my inventory but when I try dragging it into pet bag slot it won't go in and when I try right clicking the pet picture it says item cannot be used. I'm a barbarian is there anyone that can tell me how I can hatch the antelope?

    Pet Skill Trainer -> Hatch Egg. And amon, there's no need to post this twice on different topics as long as I'm on these forums - I read any and all posts on here.
