When harvesting Mirelurk Eggs, it is important to note that some eggs will hatch into Mirelurk Hatchlings and attack you. They are easy to defeat, although in this case you can only harvest 2-3 eggs per nest.
Be aware that Mirelurks are lurking near the nesting sites and will attack you as well.
Mirelurk Eggs can sometimes be purchased from merchants and vendors, or found in fridges and blue fridges, so always check supplies and poke around these locations.
What can you do with Mirelurk Eggs?
If you’re collecting the Mirelurk Eggs for a challenge, you might be wondering what you can do with them. You can eat them raw, but there are several recipes that include mirelurk eggs as an ingredient:

Completing this daily quest will also give you a reputation boost.
