Stegosaurus Hatching Egg in a Box
Some things are definitely worth the wait, and this young Steg is one of them. Once the precious purple shell has arrived safely to you in its packaging – designed exclusively for the Museum shop – all that's needed is water and patience.
Submerge the egg, then watch and wait. Between 24 and 48 hours later, you'll see cracks starting to appear, then 72 hours after covering in water, the young Stegosaurus will hatch. Meanwhile, why not build a brilliant dinosaur den or learn some training techniques?
