For this month the submission limits are as follows:
2 Hatchery submissions or 1 Hatchery submission & 1 Nursery submission or 0 Hatchery submissions & 1 Nursery submission.
this is just to be clear, that even if you do not use either hatchery submission you will still only get one nursery submission per user ID.

[Basic Information]
✦The Hatchery & The Nursery will fully open on alternating months.
.............e.g: Nursery (Feb), Hatchery (Mar), Nursery (Apr), etc...
✦Please be sure to read the full Rules section before submitting a batch adoption request.
✦Any viscet pair (or single viscets even) can apply for an adoption however there are some rules to this.However infertile / pairings than cannot breed naturally together get the first pick on eggs (Days 1-5).
✦To adopt an abandoned egg you'll need to fill out the form found here and pick your egg from the currently available ones.Schedule for Hatchery Claims:
Day 1-5: Only infertile / same-sex pairings can request adoptions
Day 6-15: Any pairings or single viscets can request adoptions
Day 16-20: The nursery will reopen for 5 days only. You can only post one submission in the nursery
(if you have not posted twice on the hatchery that month)
note this is actually in the rules section but has been added here since it keeps getting over looked.
✦Only adult viscets, that have been owned 30 days or more, can apply for adoptions.
✦When selecting an egg for adoption, remember your viscet(s) must have at least one similar color with the egg palette to be accepted.
✦ MAKE SURE the egg hasn't already been adopted before you! I'll remove it as fast as I can once I see it's adopted, but just check the last 2-3 posts to make sure no one else has gotten it.
✦ If for some reason you can't take the image URL to put in your form (on mobile, etc), just click the image--it'll take you to it.
✦ Keep in mind that the 2 posts per user ID applies to the Hatchery as well.{Claiming batches bred for or adopted counts for both nursery & hatchery if in the same month.}
✦ You must post a full, complete form in order to adopt. You cannot "claim" eggs before filling out a form.
✦The spotted eggs will likely be used more than once / recycled after an allotted amount of time. So keep in mind that each egg is not a one time use, and others in the future may also claim the same egg palette.
