Moose/Goose Egg

The Moose Egg, also known as the Goose Egg, is an object from the "Reign of Giants" DLC. Every once in awhile during Spring a Moose/Goose will wander off to lay one of the Eggs. The Eggs radiate electricity and can be struck with a Hammer 4 times to cause it to hatch. Each strike with the Hammer causes the player 10 damage. The player can also use a Weather Pain to hatch the Egg from a distance without taking damage. 5 Moslings will hatch from the Egg and attack the player if they get too close.

Once the Egg hatches, the small Nest will remain behind, giving a Moose/Goose the possibilty to lay another Egg. At the end of Spring, both the Egg and the Nest will despawn.

Trivia

 * Like the Moose/Goose, the Egg will randomly alternate between being called a "Moose Egg" and a "Goose Egg".
 * The Nest is named the same as the Egg.
