How long does a Large Dark Egg take to hatch?

~1 hour 10 minutes at default rates, and only while it sits in a placed Egg Incubator inside a base.

Where do Large Dark Eggs spawn?

Night spawns, Bamboo Groves and Deep Bamboo Thicket — on open ledges and rock shelves, respawning roughly every hour of real time.

Can you get Katress from it?

Yes. Katress is in this egg's hatch pool, and a targeted breeding pair guarantees it instead of rolling for it.

Can eggs be traded or sold?

Eggs can be dropped and passed to other players in multiplayer, and Wandering Merchants buy surplus eggs for gold.

Do eggs spoil?

Incubator eggs never spoil. Only the plain food Egg from a Chikipi Ranch has a freshness timer — refrigerate it or use it in Cake.
