Warning: there is more than one data page for cards with this name.
Please identify which of these data pages are for the card this page is supposed to cover.
Data:Cards/Nerubian Egg(475035), Data:Cards/Nerubian Egg(7738)
Once it is identified, please edit this page and use the |datapage parameter on {{Card infobox}} to ensure data is pulled from the correct page.
As an example, if the correct data page is Data:Cards/Barrel(376), then this page would need {{Card infobox|datapage=Barrel(376)}} to ensure it finds the correct page.
Eggs are a good source of protein and Nerubians.
Nerubian Egg is a rare Naxxramas minion card. Its Deathrattle summons a Nerubian.
How to get
Two copies of regular Nerubian Egg are obtained by defeating Maexxna in Curse of Naxxramas's Arachnid Quarter.
As a Wild-format card, both regular and golden versions of Nerubian Egg can also be crafted for the following amounts:
| Card | Crafting cost | Disenchanting |
|---|---|---|
| Nerubian Egg | 100 | 20 |
| Golden Nerubian Egg | 800 | 100 |
Strategy
Much like the 
Ancient Watcher, the Nerubian Egg is a unique minion that has little to no value when played by itself, but excels when used among other cards.
With the threat of spawning a 4/4 minion as early as turn 2, opponents will want to avoid killing the Nerubian Egg as far as possible. This can be played upon to discourage removal, especially board clears. Adding Taunt through methods such as Sunfury Protector or Mark of the Wild will further pressure opponents to respond to the Egg, and in the worst-case scenario use up a Silence effect that could be detrimental for your higher value minions.
While the Nerubian Egg is normally unable to do much in play due to its 0 Attack, enchantments or ongoing effects can allow it to attack. This can be very useful in triggering its Deathrattle, dealing damage to an enemy minion while also spawning the Nerubian. In particular, Power Overwhelming ensures the Egg will die while granting it substantial burst damage.
