'''Blue Eggs''' are the most basic type of [[egg]] that [[Kazooie]] can fire in the ''[[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' series.
'''Blue Eggs''' are used as the sole projectile weapon in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', and are 1 of 5 types of projectile [[egg]]s in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''. [[Kazooie]] can shoot them out of her mouth or her backside. She can hold a maximum of 100, or 200 if a [[Cheat Codes|cheat code]] from [[Cheato]] is used. The blue eggs are an important factor in the games such as filling a [[Blue Egg Toll]] or defeating [[Gruntilda]].
 
== History ==
===''Banjo-Kazooie''===
Blue Eggs first appear in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', where they act as the sole projectile weapon. [[Banjo]] and Kazooie gain the ability to use them after talking to [[Bottles]] in [[Mumbo's Mountain]]. Like [[Musical Note]]s, the [[Gold Feather|Gold]] and the [[Red Feather]]s, Blue Eggs are scattered around the world map for Banjo and Kazooie to collect. The duo can carry up to 100 Blue Eggs, or 200 after meeting [[Cheato]] then entering the [[cheat code]] "BLUE EGGS" from the [[Sand Castle]].
 
Blue Eggs are primarily used for solving puzzles, usually leading directly to a [[Jiggy]]. Kazooie can fire Blue Eggs either out front or from her backside. She can only fire them in a straight line, and cannot home them on obstacles or enemies. Blue Eggs have the capability of attacking weaker enemies, such as [[Grublin]]s.
 
The Blue Eggs are essential throughout the game, namely for filling a [[Blue Egg Toll]] or attacking [[Gruntilda]] in the final battle. Blue Eggs are a key item for obtaining some Jiggys, including by feeding [[Juju]] and [[Croctus]], both who find Blue Eggs tasty, or even patching [[Leaky]] up with two Blue Eggs.
 
A larger variant of the Blue Egg, the '''Giant Blue Egg''', appears as one of the final rooms in [[Gruntilda's Lair]], directly before the final boss fight against [[Gruntilda]]. The Giant Blue Egg entirely refills the duo's Blue Egg supply.
 
===''Banjo-Tooie''===
[[File:Blue Egg nest.png|thumb|left|200px|A nest of Blue Eggs from ''Banjo-Tooie'']]
Blue Eggs reappear in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', where they can only be collected in groups of nests, just like [[Musical Note]]s, [[Red Feather]]s, and [[Gold Feather]]s. The game also introduced more types of Eggs, such as [[Fire Egg]]s or [[Grenade Egg]]s, which diminishes the unique purpose of Blue Eggs. While they are the weakest type of egg, Blue Eggs still have the highest maximum capacity. One Blue Egg is even required for activating the [[Pot o' Gold]] in [[Cloud Cuckooland]].
 
The [[Egg Aim]] ability taught by [[Jamjars]] allows Kazooie to shoot eggs in first-person mode, including Blue Eggs. She can also learn later on how to fire eggs while airborne or underwater.


In ''Banjo-Kazooie'', a larger variant called the '''Giant Blue Egg''' appears in the final room of [[Gruntilda's Lair]] right before fighting [[Gruntilda]] herself. By collecting the egg, [[Banjo]] and Kazooie's supply of Blue Eggs are refilled entirely.
===''Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge''===
Blue Eggs also appear in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]'', where they have a very similar purpose as they did in ''Banjo-Tooie''.
{{br}}
===''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts''===
Blue Eggs make another appearance in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''. Even though Banjo and Kazooie's moveset were revoked from their previous adventures, the [[Egg Gun]] and [[Egg Turret]] parts allow them to fire Blue Eggs from their vehicle.


In ''Banjo-Tooie'', the eggs come in nests and Kazooie can fire up to three eggs at a time. They are the weakest type of eggs Kazooie can use, but can be held in higher capacities than any other egg type. Considering that they talk, they may be enemies of Gruntilda because they allow Kazooie to shoot them and destroy them.
In the ending, the Lord of Games returns the duo's moveset in a cardboard box. Blue Eggs appear inside the box, along with Red Feathers, Gold Feathers and a [[Flight Pad]].

==Trivia==
*According to [[Juju]] and [[Croctus]], blue eggs are quite tasty.
*In [[Banjo Tooie]], blue eggs are unnecessary if [[Dragon Kazooie]] is toggled on, since [[Fire Eggs]] are in infinite supply and deal more damage than normal ones. However, one Blue Egg is still required to activate the [[Pot o' Gold]] in [[Cloud Cuckooland]].
