Rooster Rivals incubator: parent names and hatch states
Read a selected chick’s parent names, understand its hatched status, and identify the take-out controls in the drawer incubator.
A selected hatched chick in the EGG BOX • DRAWER INCUBATOR shows its parent names and the status “HATCHED! Waiting in your incubator.” That status means the chick has hatched and is still inside the incubator. The same panel displays TAKE OUT and ALL OUT controls.
| What you can read | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Parent names | Identifies the parents displayed for the selected chick. |
| “HATCHED! Waiting in your incubator” | Identifies a chick that has hatched but is still waiting inside. |
| TAKE OUT | The take-out control shown for the selected chick. |
| ALL OUT (13) | The bulk take-out control as displayed in one incubator state; 13 is that player’s displayed count. |
Reading parent information
Use the selected chick’s detail panel to read its parent names. This gives you parent information for that particular chick alongside its current hatch status, so you can identify its parents while it is still waiting in the incubator.
The parent names and the hatch message describe different things: the names identify the chick’s parents, while the status tells you whether that chick has already hatched and remains inside.
Distinguishing hatched chicks from unhatched eggs
The drawer incubator includes this instruction: “Only eggs you HATCH will hatch. The rest stay in here, unhatched.” Being inside the incubator therefore does not, by itself, mean an egg has hatched. Read the selected entry’s status to distinguish a hatched chick waiting for removal from eggs that remain unhatched.
When you see “HATCHED! Waiting in your incubator,” the hatch has already happened; the panel’s take-out controls are the relevant controls at that point. The example ALL OUT (13) belongs to one player’s displayed state, so do not treat 13 as a fixed hatch amount or an incubator capacity.
