Dino Den

Dino Den
Find and hatch baby dinosaur!

This Building is special because


 * Each Village can only have one.
 * If not needed, can be saved in the Inventory
 * By having the building in the Village, There will be a Dinos button inside the main Dinos button

The Dino Den is the only method of obtaining brand new Dinos. Although it is unknown exactly how a Dino is obtained through the Dino Den, One Random Dinos will be incubated and hatched exactly 22 hours later if using Random Dino hatch method.

The common Dinos that are hatched most of the time are: Mammoth, Stegosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Parasaurolophus, and Ghost Mammoth. These common dinos have the lowest earning rate, the greatest amount of feeding times, and the longest feeding times. The other Dinos are rare and have higher earning rates, fewer feeding times, and shorter feeding times. Understandably, they can only be bought with or obtained randomly very rarely.

Hatching Dinos
There are several ways to hatch a dino: When hatching a Common Dino or Random Dino, the dino den will have a common egg in front of the building and 22 hours hatching time and a specific hurry hatching cost based on the Rare Dino (common dino will have 12 Hurry Hatch Cost).
 * 1) Select the Dino Den and choose a series of dino or Random Dino to start hatching
 * 2) Press Mallet icon and then button Dinos to select the dino or Random Dino to start hatching
 * 3) Get a dino from Bingo will also automatically hatch if the Dino Den is empty, otherwise the Dino will be inside the Inventory (All Sub Section).

When buying and hatching a Rare Dino, it will have a specific egg based on the Dino being hatched.

Getting a successful Fusion also gives you the specific egg with specific Hatch Time base on the result

The cost of Random Dino is varied by the amount of dinos collection that you have.
 * 0 = [[File:Buildings_icon_coins.png]] 100
 * 1 = [[File:Buildings_icon_coins.png]] 150
 * 2 = [[File:Buildings_icon_coins.png]] 200
 * 3 up to 10 = [[File:Buildings_icon_coins.png]] 250

Summary of Probabilities
The following table shows the probability of obtaining a dino after the Hurry Hatch Cost is known. It also shows the probability of each of the different hurry costs, with 12 predominating due to the 4 common dinos.

% Probability = ( Probability Value / (Total of Probability Value in a Group of Hurry Hatch) ) x 100%

For example:


 * The probability of getting a [[File:Buildings_icon_premium.png]] 13 hurry hatch is just 0.1% (1 in a thousand!). However, if you do then:
 * Brontornis is in [[File:Buildings_icon_premium.png]] 13 hurry hatch and has a probability value of 1.
 * It's the same as the Lucky Mammoth which also has a probability value of 1.
 * So the total probability value is 2.
 * Therefore, if you get [[File:Buildings_icon_premium.png]] 13 Hurry Hatch, you will have a 50% ( (1/2) x 100% ) chance of getting a Brontornis.
 * Equally, if you get a [[File:Buildings_icon_premium.png]] 10 hurry hatch, there is a 2.04% chance that it will be a Raptor and a 18.37% chance it will be a Dimetrodon.

The following table summarizes the various probabilities (thanks to DinoBreath).

'NOTE : This is only an educated logical assumption to guess the outcome of which dino you will get from purchasing a random dino using the probabilities assigned to each dino. You will still get a rare dino randomly and cannot predict if you can get an 8, 10, 12 or 13 hurry hatch.'

'NOTE 2: Using the probabilities above, you can expect it to take, on average, about 43 trials to find an 8, 10 or 13 hurry hatch. Also, the number of trials it can take is quite skewed, which means that the number of trials before a success can still be quite high. For example, expect that about 5% of the time, it will take more than 125 trials to find a non-12 hurry cost, and about 1% of the time, it will take more than 200 trials to get the desired result. '

Place New Dino in a Habitat
When the Dino Den finishes hatching a dino, there will be a dino egg hatch icon above the Dino Den.

Steps to allocate Dino to a habitat:
 * 1) Select the Dino Den
 * 2) Tap on the place button in the right area
 * 3) Choose a habitat. All available habitats that have an empty dino slot will be highlighted and you tap the one you want to place your new dino in it.

Trivia

 * Although it does happen rarely, it has been proven and shown that rare Dinos ARE obtainable through a random egg hatch (slightly 1 in 24 are rare dinos).
 * Despite the fact that Mammoth, Sabretooth Tiger, and Andrewsarchus are all mammals, they are hatched from eggs in the Dino Den.
 * On 24 April 2012, there was a Promotions Dino Love!, that changed the cost of rare dinos and also changed the probability of random dino using the hatch method (to view the previous values, see the Promotions Dino Love!).
 * Replace Instanly. After Finish hatching a Dino, there will be an option to "Place in Habitat" and also "Replace Instantly". Replace instantly will cost Crystal and will change the current dino with a new Random Dino instantly. The random Dino is totally random and will not guarantee a rare dino.

Tips and Tricks

 * When you hatch using Random Dino method, check the Hurry Cost to hatch the dino instantly. By looking at the cost, you can GUESS that the random dino will give you a rare dino or not. All Common Dino have [[File:Buildings_icon_premium.png]] 12 hurry cost, but remember that some Rare Dinos also have [[File:Buildings_icon_premium.png]] 12 hurry cost. (thanks to Vincijuggers in comment). See Dino Den to view all Hurry Cost to Hatch. NOTE : This is only for guessing the outcome of Rare Dino from Random Dino, you still get Rare Dino randomly.
 * 1 Hour and 50 minutes before finish hatching, the Hurry Finish will be 0 Crystal. It will say "Finish For [[File:Buildings_icon_premium.png]] 0". You can safely use it for free.
 * Building dinoden brontosaurus egg@2x.pngn Dino is buyable for [[File:Buildings_icon_coins.png]] 150000 and will hatch a Bronto-like Egg at the Dino Den. see Dino Album - Trivia.
