Every Palworld egg type explained

Palworld eggs come in four sizes — Common, Large, Huge and Huge variants by element — and the element prefix determines the Pal pool: a Huge Scorching Egg only hatches Fire Pals, a Huge Dragon Egg only Dragon Pals.

How to hatch eggs faster

To hatch Palworld eggs faster, place the Egg Incubator indoors and match the room temperature to the egg type with campfires or Cooler Boxes — a perfectly matched incubator cuts hatch time from hours down to minutes.
