Gather the laid eggs is one of the Spring Breakout challenges in Fortnite Chapter 4, Season 2.
It is not immediately clear where to get them, so we will detail how to collect laid eggs in Fortnite below.
This challenge has three stages, and you’ll earn 20,000 XP for completing each stage, which can help you earn Battle Stars for this season’s Battle Pass.
For completing 12 and 22 Spring Breakout challenges, you’ll also be rewarded with the Nannerbloom Hammer Pickaxe and the Fresh Flyer Glider, respectively. You can also get the Bloomback Sack Back Bling for visiting three cherry blossom exhibits.
How to collect spawned eggs in Fortnite
The eggs laid are near the hens in Fortnite for the Spring Breakout event. We have more details in our Hens Locations page, but in general we found Hens laying eggs around Frenzy Fields – more often in the western fields.
All you have to do to collect spawned eggs is follow a hen until she lays an egg, then press the prompt that appears to “Gather”. It was the ‘Y’ button for us on Xbox.
The easiest way to continue collecting spawned eggs is to follow the chicken. It will lay an egg about every ten seconds, so you’ll soon have a whole basket!
We recommend that you enable “Show sound effects” in the sound settings so that you can see the general direction of where a chicken is, if you are near it.
Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 has arrived and with it comes a new selection of Battle Pass skins! Also take a look at the next Eren Jaeger skin! Don’t forget to complete the new challenges, including winning arcade games, knocking players back with the Kinetic Blade, shooting targets on a Grind Rail, and restoring health or shields on a Grind Rail. Meanwhile, find out what the best weapons are, new map changes, how to get XP fast, use the best PC settings, earn the Victory Umbrella, and earn a Victory Crown.
After collecting them, you may want to consume the eggs for different effects.
Here is the effect of each egg in Fortnite:
- Cure Eggs – Restores health and shields
- Hop eggs – Low gravity effect and restores health
- golden eggs – Rewards gold bars
Golden eggs are the rarest to find, as there is only a small chance that a hen will lay one.
Additionally, you can instantly get an egg launcher and hop eggs by choosing the “Springtime Blowout” augment new for this event. This probably won’t count towards collecting spawned eggs, but you can get easy hop eggs this way if you want to jump in low gravity.
