Small eggs are used for holiday recipies one of which, the Gingerbread Cookies, is used for a quest. They always sky-rocket in price around the holidays so if you want to make a killing off the lazy level 60s farm em and put 5 up for 1g.

Edit 2013/12/15: My, my. Has it really been 7 years? Well this is pretty terrible advice now, isn't it. Level 90's are now the lazies you want to take advantage of, and 1g? Shoot, put 5 up for 20.

Edit 2023/12/19: Y'all, I have no idea what these things go for these days. What could a small egg cost, Michael? 10g?

I can confirm that Darkshore is a great place to grind for Small Eggs.

I was in Darkshore this night for about an hour and got 100 Small Eggs. Just run around and killi all the Moonkins above the town. I couldn't find any cave but there were plenty outside the small caves and in the area.

Last year I remember killing birds in Moonbrock, Westfall, on the graveyard. About 10 sec respawn and a lot of birds but I couldn't find any birds there this year so I guess Blizzard removed them from the game.

For you Hordies out their, small eggs can be Farmed in Mulgore From Plainstriders and Swoops. Swoops have the highest drop rating For eggs. I barely even got one From a plainstrider. Swoops recommended.

Commentaire de 9558

I've found recently that farming in Mulgore is difficult because the Swoops spawn slowly (and this is mostly what everyone is looking for/killing) and the Plainstriders have a next-to-nothing drop rate. There are, however, Dire Condors in the northern and southern parts of Redridge Mountains (twink alliance territory) - I picked up around 12 in about 10 minutes.

South of MoonBrook is an excellent farming spot for these eggs.

It is quite easy to get to for Horde, and even easier to get to for alliance.

Horde: Simply catch the zep to Grom'gol, ride/walk/swim up the coast until you reach Westfall, easy!

Commentaire de Divyraen

The need for small egg(and its price) has greatly increased ever since patch 2.3 and this recipe:

Commentaire de 96497

For Horde,
Forget everywhere else and go to Eversong Woods. I was there for 30 minutes and collected 100 eggs. I had a 100% drop rate on the Dragonhawks. Always one...sometimes 2.
For the Horde!

Commentaire de LordPerseus

The best place to farm these is in Eversong Woods (If you're a high level alliance you can easily get there by just going through EPL).

The Dragonhawks spawn all over the zone and have a 99% chance to drop 1, they quite frequently drop 2 a lot. I farmed 110 in roughly a half hour.

A good time to sell these would be right when Winter Veil starts, as they will be wanted for the Christmas recipes.

Commentaire de I0wrld3r

I agree with everyone above who have said Eversong Woods. Crazy drop rate, they drop 2-3 each time mostly, and they can be easily 1-shotted with an AoE if you're powerful enough.

Also, they're selling for 5g in my server, so it's time to beat their prices!!

Commentaire de 108639

For ally. Best place to farm is in Darkshore. Moonkins. Drop almost every single time. I got 50xSmall Egg in less than 5 mins.

Does anybody know what food group Small Eggs fall into for feeding Hunter pets? I've tried feeding them to a Raptor (since they're eggs, I figured they would be classified as "Meat"), but he wouldn't eat them.

Commentaire de Ramstein

Just checked my server's AH (Frostmane) and there are two stacks of 10 for 100g. Damn Delicious Chocolate Cake recipe.

Commentaire de Exorsist

The best place to farm as a horde are those dragonhawks around Silvermoon City.
I have spend about 15 mins and I got 53 eggs.

GL and Happy NY!

Commentaire de 146905

As everyone has said Eversong Woods is THE best place to farm these, the dragonhawks have a 101% drop rate (meaning they always drop one & most of the time more than one) for maximum efficiency while farming, empty out all your bags as much as you can, collect 10 eggs & seperate them out in stacks of 1, if you keep doing this until your bags are full of 1 stacks you can eliminate any trash items & only pick up the eggs! I got over 100 in less than 30 minutes of farming in Eversong Woods! There are large groups of them around the Northern Sanctum. And they have very short respawn rates, I had piles of 3 or 4 running around one-shotting them & looting them on my way back around. As I am a hunter I kept my pet on passive or dismiss them so they don't go attacking the mobs if you're higher lvl, since they are one-shotted. Sold the stacks for 10g each, over 15 stacks, the rest were up for 20g a stack, so they all sold quickly. Happy Egg Hunting!

Commentaire de crystalizd

Darkshore might be the best place for the eggs but if you wanna double your profit westfall birds drop light feathers and they go for a crap load also.

Commentaire de earthson

strongly sugest you go farm it with 101% drop rate, I don't see why anyone would buy it off the AH during X-mas time, when the price is 30G or some really high crap like that.

Commentaire de 280986

Yes this is always a good item to farm around this time of year.

I was able to collect 131 small eggs in 25 minits non stop farming in eversong woods on the WEST wide of the death scar.

Now oviously posting ALL 131 on AH at the same time will make the price plummet and people WILL under cut you. What i am going to do so that ALL my small eggs sell in one hit is sell them at a 75% disscount of what i would notmaly post them for.. so insted of 1g each post them for 75s each.. this way they are bound to sell and you wont receve a ton of them back in the mail.

This was done on my lvl 70 shadow priest with an epic ground mount.

Commentaire de 26394

So is anyone else CONFUSED about the Darkshore posts? "Above the town" is an interesting way of saying to the EAST of town! Okay, so I am slow... Hey with age, Elder ya know?

Commentaire de 258545

just farmed 150 eggs in 1 hour or so in eversong woods.

1) you can either start from outside silvermoon to the ones who sell Hawkstriders and bk or do the circle.
2) if you do the circle ou'll end up on a part of mountains with abt 5-10 of em, rounded up.
3) 150 was while exploring eversong at the same time, you might do better

for next christmas, farming eggs makes a lot of money.. but also farming deeprock salt - made more off the salt than the eggs especially once the auction house became saturated with the eggs

Commentaire de 203094

A real easy way to do this is to go to azuramist isle and kill the moonkins from the cave north
i was farming on my lvl 62 rogue by going around in circles killing them and got 90 small eggs in 40 min so then i went to the AH and sold it for alot in wintersvail event.

Commentaire de 285809

I'm stocking up on these in preparation for Children's Week. It's an ingredient to Delicious Chocolate Cake, and anybody who's done enough cooking dailys to get that recipe will be able to make a LOT of easy money selling cakes to people going for the Children's Week achievements.

Commentaire de 246362

Umm.. at the risk of killing my own trade toon's business, can I jut suggest the owlkin in Silvermyst Isle? Tons of them, no competition, no threat, about a 60% drop on eggs.

Commentaire de Hasreem

Hands down best place for these I would have to agree with the 4th post from the top. Go to Eversong Woods!

Trust me when I say that you will get 1-2 per kill on the dragonhawks there. I've got about 200 in less then 30 minutes and I turn around and sell them in 8 per stack for the cake on the AH @ 16 gold. PERFECT GOLD MINE! (Prices may range per server)

Commentaire de 380116

horde paladins can farm them fast with hand of reckoning in front of eversong woods.

Edit: Since Hand of Reckoning does not do any damage, you can use whatever you want to kill those birds ^^

5G/EGG! holy moly aint xmas fun lol
my server (kilrogg) and others from what i've heard have let the price shoot to 5g per egg this year. rediculous but proffitable for us who aint so lazy. happy hunting!

Commentaire de wye43

So many people are looking to make "easy gold" with this during the winter veil that there are tons of this stuff at AH - in the first day I see hundreds of them at AH.

You can actually get it for incredible low price, ain't worth farming it, unless you are a very low level char with no main on that server.

Commentaire de 494387

Ok, I have been to all three major locations mentioned (Eversong Woods, Azuramist Isle, and Teldrassil) and the Eversong dragonhawks beats them all hands down. Drop rate and the amount of dragonhawks are ridiculous. HOWEVER:

If you are Alliance and on a PvP server, don't even bother as you will get ganked the moment you set foot in that zone. If you are on a PvE server, you are much safer EXCEPT if you pull aggro on a guard accidently and then you will be "fair game" for anyone else that is flagged and looking to start some trouble. I was careful enough not to flag myself when I was in there but I still had numerous 80's horde following me around making sure to "keep me honest". The threat of getting blasted by a horde who has nothing better to do AND there not being an easy way to get to that zone in a time efficient manner makes it a lot less desirable in my opinion.

For Alliance, my favorite spot for farming them turns out to be in Azuramist Isle in the moonkin cave up to the north. While drop rates are lower than Eversong, the respawn rate is extremely fast and I can farm approx 60 eggs in a 30 minute period. Azuramist is also much more accessible. In Azuramist, I can get into the cave and have my first egg before I have even cleared running through Ghostlands on my way to Eversong Woods.

Lastly, for Alliance, third on my list is Teldrassil. The owls have an "ok" drop rate, but they are spread out all over the map and you will be mouning and dismounting the whole time finding them. You would be better off heading to the Azuramist cave unless you really want to run around the map in circles...

FYI, eggs are going for 2g each on my server. So in 1 hours time, I can make approx 240g-300g on eggs alone. Not too shabby!

Commentaire de 464358

I can farm about 100 eggs every 30-40min in darkshore, as long as you do a constant steady path, they all respawn perfectly, I'm also the only person I have seen farming there over the last week. Make 100-200G depending on AH, hell I made 13g for stacks of 5 the other day. Great to farm and sell for Winter Veil.

Commentaire de Evariste93

Can't believe horde just have to kill a bunch of ugly bat-birds for their eggs, while we alliance have to mercilessly hunt and kill the moonkins of auberdine.
Piles of moonkin bodies, and what do i have to show for it? 8 eggs...

Commentaire de 553717

Ok, since my hunter is only 27, I figured that the run to Silvermoon to farm up a bunch would involve a lot of dying, so I decided to take a run around Westfall to see for myself if the comments were true about there being no good groups of Fleshrippers to farm. Well, let me tell you, I found the perfect farming spot! 10 stacks, yes kids that's 200 eggs, in under an hour!

Go to the beach at 27, 43, there's a half eaten dead sea creature there with a few Greater Fleshrippers camped over it. Stand about 3 yards off of the tip of it's inland side fin and start killing. when there is less than 2 birds, another immediately spawns, there has to be 2 at all times! (THANKS, BLIZZ!) Even though the drop rate is about 75% (estimating, sorry, don't have the addon anymore that tells me how many I've killed) you are killing so fast that the numbers just add up.

I would put an arrow or two into one, then turn to the other while my pet took care of the rest. I would kill for a few minutes 'til I had a circle of sparkling dead around me then loot en masse. I was using auto loot for speed and just dumped claws and bones when I had to stop and feed my pet to keep him happy. I wound up with about 2 G worth of junk when I vendored it when I was done, and mailed the eggs to my bank alt. Easy peasy. NO RUNNING! You literally stand in one spot and turn back and forth!

I'll try to post a screenshot.

Edit: Note: I have stopped feeding my pet...lol!

Want to get these close to Orgrimmar as a Horde?

Commentaire de Jaadis

As alliance for winter quests i first went to Searing gorge to do the reindeer quest, then Loch modan south of the dried Loch lake and killed 9 Loch buzzard for 5 small eggs (guess droprate is 50%), and onwards journey continues to Hillsbrad for last quest.

edit: While there, go visit old Dalaran for singing sunflower minigame if you already haven't.

Commentaire de thedevilmyself

I don't know if it was just a bug, but i was going to Eversong woods by way of Ghostlands, and i cannot fly in Ghostlands. I have every flying skill imaginable but can't fly there. So i'm going to go farm Darkshore instead to speed it up.

Commentaire de zAce

If you are Horde and usually are close to Orgrimmar. Barrens Vulture in Northern Barrens have quite the high drop rate, you can find many of them in a somewhat huge group at 56,35 by some bones.

Commentaire de JustRob

If you're Alliance, farm these in Westfall.

- It's close to Stormwind, you can be there in less then a minute with flying mount
- Fleshrippers are all over the place, and they almost always drop an egg. Just circle around Westfall and kill every Fleshripper you see
- They're low level, so you can easily take a flock of them and move on quickly

Also, according to the comments here, most people farm in either Darkshore or Eversong or whatever, so you probably won't have any competition. I didn't have any.

Commentaire de 352626

A very good place for alliance is LOCH MODAN. I timed myself. 100 eggs in 25 minutes. They are now selling like hotcakes for 2.5g a piece in the AH (stacks of 5). There are buzzards that are within a VERY small circle, they seem to be for a quest or something, they respawn STUPID fast. So fast I couldn't keep up. Very good spot.

The spot is in the southern part of the zone, right below the lake, you can find it.

Commentaire de 743262

Loch Modan Golden Eagles by Farstrider Logde drops these almost 100%. I got the eggs from 6 out of the 7 I killed.

Commentaire de 759777

I would like to add, come 4.0.3, there is another place to farm small eggs, for mainly alliance but horde can farm them too :)

About half way down Longshore in Westfall, near the opening that leads to the Raging Chasm, there are two/three level 12 Greater Fleshrippers that are an insta-spawn. I farmed 100 in a little over 15 minutes.

Commentaire de stagenal

If your looking for small eggs to farm go to the crossroads in Northern Barrens and head down the south east road, you will pass about 10 Barrens Vulture - then head to 67, 80 where you will find 2 dead kodos with about 12 Barrens Vultures hovering over them. your will farm about 20 small eggs in less than 5 mins. :)

Commentaire de Clauswar

These did drop 8 times out of 10 kills from Barrens Vulture in Northern Barrens. I might just be lucky but really good droprate so far.

Commentaire de 888869

A great place for Alliance to farm these is at Westfall, it seems the Fleshrippers drop them quite a bit, I was there for just 4 minutes, and every kill had a drop.

Commentaire de Tzod

Grand déchireurs in Marche de l'Ouest @ coords 26.6 42.7 are instaspawn. Great place to farm Petit œufs for whatever purpose you may need them. Good for Alliance or Horde.

Commentaire de 892035

If you're a dummy like me ^^.... and your alliance... the begin areas of the horde (and the other way around i suppose) are off limit, you won't get in to those areas. That means that eversong woods is off limit. If you're alliance, don't go there.

Ans yes, it is marked yellow... i do know what that means now^^.

Commentaire de 923342

For alliance players.

Got to WestFall, 27, 43,, on the beach. There is a dead whale with Fleshrippers flying around.

This works best for players with a good ranged attack and or pets.
Start killing until for kill 50 Fleshrippers or so, gather loot, repeat process.

I gathered 100 eggs in about 15 minutes. Drop rate seemed to be around 70%.
Fleshripper regen rate was faster than I could kill them solo as a level 80 resto druid.
I had a constant supply of Fleshrippers to kill.

Enjoy,

Commentaire de Maevilyn

If you are trying to find eggs for Gingerbread Cookies, I think the best place is right around 56 35 in Northern Barrens. There is a large flock of Barrens Vultures all around the sketal remains of some large beast.

Commentaire de 928479

Northern Barrens 56,35 is a good place for shooting vultures and gathering eggs.

Commentaire de 929434

I tried both places to look for small eggs, Eversong Woods and Westfall. Here are the ups and downs of these places,

Eversong's ups: The dragonhawks have a drop rate of at least one small egg per animal, they are very plentiful around the entrance of Silvermoon, they normally don't drop too much junk either, and they are very easily accessible to the Horde.

Eversong's downs: The dragonhawks are spaced pretty far apart and unless you're a ranged may take longer to kill, If you are Alliance it takes a while to get to the area-- and unless you're 85 you may get killed by guards (not the level 15 one most likely).

Westfall's ups: Very easy to get to (look at Deathknell's review to see where it is in Westfall), Horde and Alliance can get there without worrying about other players normally, the junk the Fleshrippers' drop can sell up to 2g (quite a bit more than the drangonhawks' loot), And they spawn Very quickly.

Westfall's downs: If you are a Horde you won't have anywhere to sell, The 2 Fleshrippers (or 3) could overwhelm you if you try to farm them and you are low enough level, the Fleshripper's don't have a 100% drop rate so you get more just junk (more than you would get with the Dragonhawks), and if you don't have AoE it may be a little more difficult to kill them if they're close together.

So there it is. You can decide which is better, I didn't add all of the ups and downs but there are a few more that could make a difference that I didn't take into accounting.

Happy Hunting!

Commentaire de 510698

I went with my alliance 85 warrior to Eversong Woods.

I went around, avoiding guards.. almost no competition on my medium pop realm.
If you want more spawns go for the Feral Dragonhawk Hatchlings, since they spawn faster, but usually drop just 1 egg.
The Crazed Dragonhawk on the other hand, almost always drop 2 eggs, but they are spaced far away between them, so its hard to find a big group.
Personally, i just roamed around the whole zone.

And this are the results after 20 mins of non-stop farming:
143 Small Egg
20 Cracked Egg Shells
18 Plucked Feather
17 Cracked Bill
7 Leg Meat
7 Ruffled Feather

In my opinion: best place for Horde by far, and for Alliance too if you dont mind the long trip.

EDIT: It took me 4 mins and 25 seconds more to get to 200 eggs :P

Commentaire de Thottbot

It must be hard for the horde to get enough eggs, if they have to hunt the few Swoops flying around in Mulgore to extinction.
Clearly only an effortless quest for the alliance.

The best place to farm these BY FAR is Moonbrook, Westfall at the graveyard, 2 Fleshrippers spawn every 10 seconds and half of them have eggs. Also got like 3 lowbie green items in about 5 minutes, kinda odd. The only hard part is spacing out their corpses.

Ended up getting about 120 eggs in 15 minutes

For those who think that charging a large sum of money for something on the AH is somehow wrong, please realize that the only people being taken advantage of are the lazy people.

How ironic that we're celebrating the Tauren legend of rebirth and renewal by hunting these little &*!@ers to extinction so we can make some cookies for a fat old orc.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Just farmed up 80 eggs in 20 minutes on my Orc Hunter in Darkshore, killing Moonkin southeast of Auberdine. The Moonkin are real close together and spawn crazy-fast. Definitely recommended to everyone, including Horde. I saw a few low-level NEs questing, but no one else. Darkshore is pretty quiet, I think (I'm on an old server, as well).

Last year I farmed owls on Teldrassil with my paladin alt, and got a nice stack of gold to buy bags with. The owls there can even drop two eggs at a time, so it might even be faster than Darkshore for a high-level character.

I can't recommend Mulgore; the swoops do drop eggs at a fair rate but they're ridiculously far apart. Not for people wanting to mass-produce, at all.

Happy farming! These cookies make me want to make some real ones...

Commentaire de Thottbot

I was so dissapointed that after BC came out, the Dragonhawks outside of Silvermoon City in the Bloof Elf starting zone have a 150% drop rate for small eggs (1 or 2 per kill). The auction house prices shot down to 50s from 2g but they're slowly rising again. Made about 15g this week from them, so I'm not terribly complaining, but I'd rather be making 25g!

Commentaire de Thottbot

Um. . . hello?
Im a level 8 night elf, and when NOT in the christmas, i made 5gs selling these eggs.
How, may you ask?
Simple. In Teldrasil, there are like, level 3 owls, that drop like, two each. Seriously. Mulgore. Westfall. tsk tsk tsk. Shame on you all.

Commentaire de Thottbot

These are farmed alot for christmas. Before BC, the Moonkin in Darkshore drop them pretty good. If your horde, dragonhawks outside silvermoon may work better.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Westfall is the best place to farm these, specifically at 61,45. If you run out of birds to kill, kill some Goretusks to get the Fleshrippers to respawn.

Also, if you are looking to level cooking from 1-75, you can farm Small Eggs (Fleshrippers) and Boar Meat(Goretusks) here too.

Commentaire de Thottbot

If your willing to go to eversong woods on alliance or horde you will get 1-2 every kill :) thanks and have fun

Commentaire de Thottbot

grrr high drop rate in eversong woods is surely gonna make the prices plummet. :( i can see it now 15th of dec the ah will be flooded with so many eggs and cookies it wont even be worth it.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Dragonhawks in the Eversong Woods have a high chance of dropping Small Eggs (they can drop more than one at a time), and with the arrival of Winter Veil it will not be uncommon to see them being farmed for their eggs.

The quest "Treats for Greatfather Winter" requires you to bring Greatfather Winter 5 Gingerbread Cookies and 1 Ice Cold Milk.

The Gingerbread Cookies (the recipe can be purchased from the Smokywood Pastures vendors and requires no cooking skill to learn) requires 1 Small Egg and 1 Holiday Spice to make at a time (the Holiday Spices are purchased from the Smokywood Pastures vendors) and during The Feast of Winter Veil the price of the Gingerbread Cookies on the Auction House will be quite largely inflated.

If you want to make some quick gold, purchase some Holiday Spices, farm the Dragonhawks for their Small Eggs, make 5 Gingerbread Cookies and sell them at inflated prices. Try selling 5 Gingerbread Cookies for about 3g, you'd be surprised as to how many will sell. This, obviously, will only be successful during the period of time in which the Winter Veil event is running, and is a good way of making money for lower level characters.

If you need to do the quest, instead of buying the 5 Gingerbread Cookies at an inflated price on the Auction House - buy some Holiday Spices, come down to the Eversong Woods and kill a few Dragonhawks until you get 5 Small Eggs, then make the Gingerbread Cookies yourself. This way you would've saved yourself a few gold.

Remember, these guys are very low level (6-8), so whether you're doing the quest at level 10, 30, or 70 you will have no problems killing them, unless you are an Alliance in which you may be killed by members of the Horde dueling outside Silvermoon City or helping their lowbie Blood Elf friends do quests.

With that said, farming the Dragonhawks for their Small Eggs can also be good for leveling cooking as some other low level cooking recipes require Small Eggs to be made, for example, Herb Baked Eggs which, when being made, provide a faster alternative to leveling cooking then other low level cooking recipes.

Also, it does not matter which type of Dragonhawk you farm as I believe the drop rates are relatively the same.

Happy hunting =)!

I agree if they are too lazy to go grinding for eggs, then they should have to pay a fortune for them.

Commentaire de Thottbot

For those of you who do wish to grind for eggs to sell in the AH.... I found about 45 eggs in two hours running all over Westfall killing Flesh Rippers (minus the beach areas). Good luck! If you can handle lvl 16/17 Greater Flesh Rippers, they are at 60.60... several in one area!

Commentaire de Thottbot

I love farming these in Eversong Woods as a lvl 70 Draenei Priest. Just go around and whack. Watch out for the hordies outside Silvermoon dueling. Right now my drop rate is 160% because they drop them 1-2 at a time, and i've killed a lot. Have fun farming.

These eggs go for between 1g25 and 2g each in the AH on Quel'Thalas.

i just farmed 160 of these in Eversong woods. Had to go through Eastern Plaguelands and Ghostlands to get there but I survived. Fantastic droprate, i got 2 eggs from every 3rd or 4th bird and at least 1 from all of them. Those Silvermoon City Guards are sneaky though, they are all lvl 30 or lower, but bam out of nowhere, level ? guards appear and strike you down like the scourge lol.

Beat the inflated prices at the AH by farming these yourself. It's cheaper AND you can sell the extras for the same exorbitant fees that they command this time of year.

There is a small field in Westfall, just east of Sentinel Hill and North of The Dead Acre where only birds and pigs spawn. They seem to be place holders for each other and constantly spawn. If you kill all the birds and only pigs are left, start killing the pigs and the birds will repop. Much easier than trying to grind Swoops in Mulgore (which seem to go extinct this time of year).

If you are Horde, you can still grind here. If there are Alliance players questing in this area, they will be in the high teens to low twentys and will probably leave a higher level alone. There are more than enough mobs to go around--they continually spawn.

Sorry I do not have more precice coordinates to give for this field. It's the one with all the birds and pigs that's just East of Sentinel Hill and a bit North of the Dead Acre (which also has some birds in and around it--you can make the circuit). You should be able to find it.

Happy Egg Farming

I spent a few hours in Loch Modan (near Farstrider (sp?) Lodge) farming the Mountain Buzzards and got 46 eggs (and 2 greens and a recipe for Succulent Pork Ribs (WTF?) and also mined a lot of tin ore). Noone else was around so I didn't feel bad, but then a lvl 16 hunter showed up to do the lodge quests so I left him to it (as I got back to Thelsamar, a lvl 66 and a lvl 70 were headed back the way I came so I guess it's just going to be camped to a ludicrous level until Winter Veil is over).

I decided to head up to the Blood Elf lands since I read here that the drop rate of eggs from Dragonhawks was 90%+ (Plus I had never been there). So I headed up through EPL, took the road north through the "portal" to the Ghostlands, did some sightseeing and got to Eversong Woods. Once I got to where the dragonhawks spawn I was amazed at the sheer number of them. The place is rife with them! A mage or hunter could clean up here! They're all around level 5 and are one-shot kills for most higher-level characters. And literally every single one I killed dropped 1 or 2 small eggs (plus the usual bird vendor trash). In less than an hour I got over 70 eggs! The only danger is from guards (which can be level 65. One attacked me and I had to smoosh him. A lvl 8 BE PC watched me and even cheered when I won (weird BEs!)) if you get too close to the NPC areas.

(I'm not selling the eggs, just using them to make gingerbread cookies for the Xmas quest for me, my alts and friends. The gouging on the AH is insane! I might spend a silver or two per egg but 30s to 2g per egg is just abusive!)

The gold farmers in my server (warsong) had these eggs on the AH at 2/5 buyout the morning that the Christmas holiday started.

For allies, I suggest hunting the owlbeasts on Silermyst Isle. They are level 9. Nearly everyone drops small eggs.

I farmed 50 small eggs with my level 16 Horde rogue in Darkshore. If you're lucky enough to have a flexible schedule, just do it past midnight when hardly anybody's playing. Much easier. I had 45 eggs before people who cared finally spotted me and started patrolling the moonkin areas, so I just grabbed five more to make it a round number and hearthstoned out. Wonderful fun. :)

Just camped the Feral Dragonhawk Hatchlings directly outside Silvermoon on my lowbie (level 12), from the gates down to the river. Easily got 130 eggs in one hour. Easy kills and insanely high drop rate, almost every kill dropped 1 if not 2 eggs.

Still selling for 1-2g each at the AH on Dentarg.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

something happened to all the swoops on my server (firetree). All of a sudden there are none. How are we supposed to get these eggs?

Commentaire de Allakhazam

The Dire Condors in Redridge drop them pretty frequently. I got a dozen in about 10 minutes.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Does something trigger the spawn for them?

I was killing them yesterday non-stop, I went back today and none were spawned.

Anyone know?

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I just farmed 60 of these suckers off of the Dragonhawks in Eversong. :D I'll be rich come tomorrow morning.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Spent an hour in WF, got around 100 just roaming around.
Fun trip being Horde, met few allies, mostly lowbies.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I went to Darkshore with my human warrior cause there are alot easier mobs in Darkshore than in fx. Westfall..
One of my highlvled friends requested some small eggs and I went hunting for em.. After I send him some, I checked here and saw they were woth like 10s each, so for a stack 1g.. Then I farmed like 60 or something in a very short time, and put em all on AH .. When I came back from school I had gotten 6g :)

Atm. I have 40g as lvl 16 :b

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Go to Moonbrook Cemetary in WF. A lvl 60 will get close to 200 eggs an hour. The Lvl16 Fleshrippers respawn instantly. 2G for 5. Pfft.

Tip of the Christmas day :) Darkshore, Talk Zidormi, middle on Darkshore map to travel "remaked Classic" Darkshore. After that you can travel to Teldrassil. Middle on Teldrassil is best area to find Small Eggs i quess.

Commentaire de DoctorBunny

Hey, Horde players: I ran myself ragged getting from Ogrimmar to Darkshore, for that was supposed to be the closest place to farm small eggs. BUT you can also farm small eggs from the static-charged hyppogryphs just outside Ogrimmar, in Azshara near the secret lab. They have a great drop-rate, and they are RIGHT NEXT DOOR!

Commentaire de nyctea

For alliance players, the darkshore is good to hunt for the small egg, look for the moonkin for that.

WOTLK Classic-
Horde: Go outside of Silvermoon to the east and west and kill the Feral Dragonhawk Hatchlings. It's 100% drop rate and most of the time they were dropping 2 eggs. I was able to farm 85 of them in less than 10 minutes

Commentaire de Battlescar2112

Only had to kill about 8 Swoops in Mulgore to get five eggs.
