How do you play with the easter hatch a long!

Go back and read post 1 and it should explain everything. Basically we set eggs to hatch the day before Easter and have fun talking while we wait. If you don't have eggs set, you can still chat and enter some of the contests for fun if you want. Common, it'll be fun!
