Or will my frozen hatchling and 100% adult I thought would stay gold [after I froze/raised them this morning during the time frame] be color changing forever instead :sleep: :|
Right at the moment there isn't a way to get the moon shards, but more opportunities for getting them will come. ^.^

Hi, I wasn't able to find the answer anywhere else- what happens if you open a gift with an egg but you have 5 eggs already? Does is disappear or can you grab it later?

Thanks in advance ^^

Opening gifts allows you to exceed the egg limit, so you can open gifts even if you already have 5 eggs. The gifted eggs will just appear in your Keep as normal. Of course if you have quite a lot of gifts and open them all up you will then have all those unfrozen eggs in your keep, and need to hatch them before you can grab any more eggs from the stream or shops. ^_^

Is the quest "Aderyn's Amagnae Farm" completely retired or only available during the harvest event?

Just curious because I noticed while I was going through my keep breeding eggs for someone. The Ikonoki can't breed despite subsequent event releases being able to, and the release post by Rosehill does state that they will be able to breed. Given all the site troubles, I think they might have been overlooked by mistake. Unless this was a typo?
February 14th 2023: Creatures 1386 and 1387 have been released.

They are limited event creatures. They will flood the stream up to and including February 20th. The creatures will be able to breed.
Need hatchlings?

Is the quest for the Black Market only active when it's open? Cause I gathered the requirements and returned to the Stream, where my gold was taken, but not the eggs and I have no badge.
My join date says 2012, when I made an account I promptly forgot about until August 2023, so I'm really *gasp* a newbie. :)
I have no phobias or disliked critters. Feel free to click anything in my keep, except the "Quests" tab. I think you'll find plenty there without those 2 or 3.

I apologize if this was already covered somewhere, I did try a search of the thread before posting. Please be gentle if I've spoken out of turn, I am at very high anxiety lately.

1. If it isn't confidential information, how long is the refresh rate on the streams? I know the eggs will reload and give new ones to choose from every so often, but I was curious what that time frame is. I'm assuming it's something like 3min, 5min, or 10min.

2. Same with clicking a creature to grow them, what's the cooldown on that?

It seems that we haven't actually included the stream refresh times in the FAQ, so a very valid question! (We are in the process of updating our FAQ and Rules, so this is good input for us to include this information as well.)
-The Main Stream (i.e. the one accessed here https://magistream.com/) refreshes every 15 minutes, at xx:00, xx:15, xx:30 and xx:45 of each hour.
-The Seven Tributary Streams (i.e. the ones accessed by the yellow diamonds in the world map https://magistream.com/world) refresh hourly at xx:00.

As for creatures, they gain growth from each individual clicker every 6 hours. This is not tied to actual times of the clock, but is dependent on how long it has been since the clicker in question has clicked that creature. If no-one has clicked a creature in the past six hours, the creature also gets a boost in the growth the click gives. ^.^
