This pet is chosen among four vanity pets as a reward after completing a chain of Children's Week quests that begin in Outland. These quests may be accessed by characters level 60+. See the Guide to Children's Week for a detailed walkthrough of this chain. Other rewards for the final quest include Peanut, Willy, and Legs. Collecting all four pets on the same character is possible (over the course of four years) since the quests are repeatable each year.

This pet is also available as a FigurePets collectible (series 2).

No matter how many times you see this little crack baby sprint right at a boss when his ADD kicks in, sooner or later it will give you a near-heart attack for fear of aggro.

It seems that whenever Egbert starts running around, he runs in the same rate his master is able too.

For example, If I can walk in 100% speed, Egbert will run around at 100% speed too.
If I have a debuff that reduces my speed by 50%, Egbert will run with -50% speed too.
If I'm mounted, and I can go at 200% speed, so will Egbert.

And so on.

Eh, dont know if its been noticed but I think little Eggy might be a Swift Pink Hawkstrider hatchling. Makes me wonder about the hawkstrider breeders if there turning out so many crack hatchlings....

When I first started WOW I saw this guy and wanted him. I was then told I couldn't get him and I was very sad. But thanks to this site, I found out I just had to wait til my first children's week! He is my all time favorite pet!

lol this one makes me laugh every time I bring him out. The first time I got him and he decided to run off on me I thought it was a bug! I love how insane it looks with its eyes bulging out like it overdosed on Caffeine.

This little guy reminds me of my puppy, Edward. He does not look like him, but the acts like him... Crazy! My dog sometimes runs around the room really fast just like Egbert. They are both so silly. Egbert looks funny and cute at the same time. Edward looks funny and cute at the same time (hes a chiwawa, rat terrier, and something els mixe with maybe another thing. :D Nice video, Jarr!

Who wouldn't love this absolutely adorable newly-hatched hawkstrider? While he is one of the cutest pets you'll find, he does have a serious problem. Unfortunately, little Egbert here is a crack baby. Sure, he's got a cracked shell, but that's not what I mean. No, Eggbert tends to zip around like a coked-up little Dodo, frantically seeking his next fix.
