- Selling in Dig For Eggs mainly means selling duplicate pets and surplus eggs for Coins
- Coins come from digging blocks, selling duplicates, and objectives — spend them on shovel upgrades first
- Egg rarity tiers (Dirt → Void) determine resale value — deeper layers drop more valuable eggs
- Gems are premium currency; don't waste them on low-tier egg purchases
- Best early strategy: hatch everything, sell duplicates, reinvest in shovel and backpack upgrades
How Selling Works in Dig For Eggs
Dig For Eggs is a Roblox digging simulator by RoDark Studios built around a core loop: dig up buried eggs, hatch them into pets, equip the best ones, and convert the surplus into currency. There is no direct "egg shop sell price" for every egg in the game — your income comes from three channels: digging blocks, selling duplicate pets, and completing objectives. Understanding which channel pays best at each stage is the key to fast growth.

There are currently no verified Dig For Eggs tutorial videos available for embedding. This guide is based on the game's official Roblox page and the RoDark Studios group announcements.
The three income sources compare like this:
| Income Source | Currency Earned | Early Game Rating | Late Game Rating |
|---|---|---|---|
| Digging blocks | Coins | ★★★ | ★★ |
| Selling duplicate pets | Coins | ★★★ | ★★★★★ |
| Objectives & codes | Coins, Boosts, Eggs | ★★★★★ | ★★ |
Egg-selling and pet-selling are the same economy. The pets you hatch from surplus eggs are what actually get sold — so farming eggs efficiently IS farming Coins.
Egg Values by Rarity Tier
Every egg in Dig For Eggs belongs to a rarity tier, and the tier roughly determines the resale value of what it produces. Deeper dig layers and higher-tier egg shops yield more valuable results. Use this table to decide where to spend your dig time.
| Egg | Tier | Source | Shop Price | Notable Pets (Odds) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dirt Egg | Common | Surface digging | 100 Coins | Dirt Dog (75%), Mole Mouse (20%) |
| Stone Egg | Uncommon | Mid-depth digging | 500 Coins | Stone Cat (70%), Boulder Bunny (25%) |
| Crystal Egg | Rare | Deep layer digging | 5,000 Coins | Crystal Fox (60%), Prism Dragon (10%) |
| Lava Egg | Epic | Magma layer digging | 25,000 Coins | Lava Hound (55%), Magma Mole (10%) |
| Golden Egg | Legendary | Rare finds, events | 100 Gems | Royal Phoenix (35%), Sun Serpent (15%) |
| Void Egg | Secret | Very rare deep finds | Not sold | Void Whale (85%), Abyssal Reaper (15%) |
For trade value rather than shop value, the player market scales roughly like this:
| Pet Class | Approximate Trade Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Common pets | 1 - 5 Gems | Traded in bulk |
| Rare pets | 10 - 40 Gems | Common trade filler |
| Epic pets | 100 - 300 Gems | Demand rises in events |
| Legendary pets | 500 - 1,500 Gems | Usually traded pet-for-pet |
| Mythical / Secret | 2,000+ Gems | Backbone of high-value trading |
Player trade values shift every time RoDark Studios releases new eggs or events. Always compare against recent trades before selling a Legendary or Secret pet — selling too early can cost you hundreds of Gems.
Step-by-Step Selling Strategy
Follow this route to convert your egg surplus into Coin income as efficiently as possible.
Dig wide, not just deep
Clear broad tunnels in the mid-depth layer instead of a single shaft. Wider coverage means more egg spawns per minute, which means more hatches and more sellable duplicates.
Hatch every egg immediately
Eggs in your backpack earn nothing. Keep the hatchery timer running at all times so duplicates stack up while you dig — those duplicates are your sellable stock.
Equip your best, sell the rest
Keep the strongest pet per boost type (Coins, Dig Speed, Luck) equipped. Sell or trade duplicates and low-tier pets — D-tier starters like Dirt Dog and Mole Mouse have minimal long-term value.
Reinvest into shovel first
Put early Coins into shovel upgrades before anything else. A better shovel reaches deeper, richer layers where higher-value eggs spawn — the upgrade pays for itself.
Trade up at the top end
Once you hatch Legendary or Secret pets, switch from selling to trading. High-tier pets hold far more value as trade assets than as quick Coin sales.
Each shovel tier unlocks a deeper layer with better eggs, which produces better pets, which boost your Coin multipliers — your income compounds every time you reinvest instead of stockpiling Coins.
Boosting Your Sell Income
Several multipliers stack on top of your base selling income. Use all of them together for maximum Coin flow.
Coin Multiplier Pets
- Abyssal Reaper: x5 Coins
- Void Whale: x4 Coins
- Royal Phoenix: x3 Coins
- Equip the best Coin pet you own

- Boosts apply immediately to hatching and digging
- Each code works once per account
Group Bonus
- Join the RoDark Studios Roblox group
- Group members get a bonus multiplier
- Codes like RODARK may require group membership
| Boost Source | Effect | How to Get |
|---|---|---|
| Coin pets | Up to x5 Coins | Hatch Void / Golden Eggs |
| Luck Boost code | 2x Luck, 15 min | Codes menu (e.g., DIGDIG) |
| Dig Speed Boost | Faster digging, 10 min | Codes menu (e.g., HAPPYDIGGING) |
| Group membership | Member bonus | Join RoDark Studios group |
| Rebirth | Permanent multipliers | Reset progress at milestones |
Pet multipliers, code boosts, and group bonuses stack together. Activate boosts right before a deep-layer digging session to maximize the eggs — and income — per boost window.

FAQ
Q: Can I sell eggs directly in Dig For Eggs?
Eggs themselves are mainly hatched or bought, not sold for Coins. Your selling income comes from hatching surplus eggs into pets and selling the duplicate pets, plus Coins earned from digging blocks and objectives.
Q: Which pets are worth selling?
Sell Common and Rare duplicates freely — they have minimal long-term value. Keep Epic pets until you have better options, and hold Legendary and Secret pets for trading rather than selling, since they are worth far more as trade assets.
Q: What should I spend sold Coins on first?
Upgrade your shovel first. Better shovels dig deeper into layers with rarer, more valuable eggs, which increases all future income. Backpack upgrades come next, and cosmetic egg purchases last.
Q: Do Gems matter for selling?
Yes. Gems are the premium currency used for high-tier eggs like the Golden Egg, and they are the standard unit for player-to-player pet trading values — most pet value lists are quoted in Gems.
