How to Get Eggs in Lift Rock For Eggs (Train, Lift Rocks, Collect)

Every egg in Lift Rock For Eggs is hidden underneath a rock, and the game's official How to Play sums up the whole route in three moves: train to gain Strength + Speed, lift rocks to uncover the eggs hidden underneath, then collect them. From there, the eggs you've collected are hatched into the rare pets the game is built around. Here is what each part of that route means in practice.

Where eggs are found

Eggs are defined by where they hide: underneath rocks. "Lift rocks to uncover eggs" and "Collect eggs hidden underneath" are the two steps the official description dedicates to them, and a feature breakdown of the game leads with the same idea — "look under the rocks" is its first listed core feature. So when you're hunting eggs, rocks are the thing to look for.

How to get an egg, step by step

1. Train to gain Strength + Speed. This is the stated prerequisite — the game lists training before any lifting. Training builds both stats named in the route, and it never stops mattering, because the same loop later has you upgrade to lift bigger rocks. If you want to work on the stat grind itself, see how to get strength fast, and check the Codes page to see whether anything is currently running before a long session.
2. Lift a rock. Lifting is the reveal action: raising the rock uncovers the egg hidden underneath it. The game doesn't state a Strength number for each rock — what it does state is the direction of progress, since upgrades exist to let you lift bigger rocks. Treat each rock as the test, and let training answer the ones that don't move yet.
3. Collect the egg underneath. With the rock up, the egg that was hidden beneath it is uncovered, and collecting it is the game's explicit next objective: "Collect eggs hidden underneath." That collected egg is exactly what feeds the next stage of the loop.

After you collect an egg

The route doesn't end at the uncover-and-collect moment. The official loop continues: hatch eggs to collect rare pets, earn money from your pets, upgrade to lift bigger rocks, and discover rarer eggs and more powerful pets. A feature walkthrough of the game confirms the hand-off — it's the eggs you've already collected that get hatched, and hatching them is how rare pets join your collection.

In practice, that makes every uncovered egg worth collecting: it carries over into hatching, hatched pets earn money, and that money funds the upgrades behind bigger rocks. One caveat on rarity: the game lists bigger rocks and rarer eggs as successive steps in its progression, but it doesn't state a rule that every bigger rock holds a rarer egg — treat that as the direction of travel, not a guarantee per rock. When you're ready to chase rarer finds specifically, the rare eggs page picks up that thread, and how to lift bigger rocks covers the upgrade path behind them.
