Egg/Legends

A kaadu egg

An egg was a method of giving birth among some species. Rather than giving live birth, a member of an egg-laying species would lay an egg containing the young, within which the young would grow to term and hatch. Some species of reptomammals and mammals such as monotremes but all amphibians, reptilian and avian species were known lay eggs, such as Quor'sav, S'kytri, and marlellos.

Many species ate eggs of other creatures as a form of sustenance. Yam'rii were particularly fond of eggs, especially those of the Quor'sav.

The Kitonak and the Nediji worshiped a deity known as the Cosmic Egg.
