This guide is awesome! I knew this game was supposed to suck, but the first few seconds of commentary really captured the misery I was about to endure.

@ Yutani you can use level select to pick up missed eggs but you MUST complete the level for the egg to count.

Just a tip for the balance beam part, if you go one step at a time you won't fall off. So move forward a step, stop. Move forward another step, stop, etc. until you get to the egg and back. Its a lot easier then trying to run to the egg and falling off a bunch and having to run back up the stairs, etc.

Original credit goes to The Pants Party on x360a - but I pasted it here (and cleaned up the grammar and last egg location) because some people need the text to help.. or perhaps you are only looking for 1 or 2 eggs like I was. You need to finish the level in which you find an egg. Simply acquiring it and quitting will not save it to your collection - thanks to c36d for pointing that out.

In any case, here is a list of the egg locations.

The Spine Mountains
Before following the deer through the stone arch to the target area, jump and grab the ledge to the right and pull yourself up. Walk to the secret egg to get it.

Carvahall
In the building where you get to shoot a guard in the back. Jump and grab the ledge to the left of where the guard was and pull yourself up to the loft to get the egg here.

Daret Docks
After crossing over the ship, go all the way left past a junction and go around a couple of turns to find the egg at the end of the lower dock.

Daret Town
Balance along the rafter by the door leading out the the second side of the gate.

Daret Bridge
Drop to the right at the building at the bottom of the ramp leading up to where you'll learn the magic arrow spell. Drop down one more level to the left to find the secret egg.

Ra'zac Chase
At the bottom of the waterfall in the phase of the fight where you need to fight the enemies.

Trapped!
Front right of the area.

Gil'ead City
After going through the gate opened by the first bell: Jump and grab the building to the left of the round platform that's just ahead of you. Pull up. Go on the wider part to the left and jump and grab the window to the right of the barrels. Pull yourself into the building and head right. Jump and grab the beam when you get to the balcony. Shimmy right and drop onto the other balcony. Ignore the chest, you can't get there from here, instead go right and drop on the secret egg.

Gil'ead Keep
On top of the wall after going all the way left on the wall that has several junction points, come forward to the corner, turn and go to the end of the wall to get the egg.

Durza's Fortress
After climbing out from two magic blocks you pull out at a corner, go left to the next corner and drop into the pit there to find the egg.

Flight From Gil'ead
Go into the tunnel after the first two stone arches. It will be to the bottom right of an entrance to a smaller tunnel out of the cavern you'll be in.

Ruins of Orthiad
Behind the King's statue in the tunnel with the gems you need to use magic on.

The Beor Mountains
Just before exiting the level go all the way left along the top of the cliffs.

Urgal Encampment
There a plateau with several enemies that you need to climb up onto just before a cave. You can drop into the gap just behind where you climb up to from its right end to get the egg.

Misty Gorge
After emerging from the mist filled area: go down the stair to the right and hug the left wall as it bends right to a dead end where you'll find the egg.

Urgal Attack!
From the start take the right path going in the center of the map. Pull right at the other end to take the outer path with three twos. The egg is on the right side between the first two towers.

Defend the Varden
At the bottom of the stairs halfway across the bridge.

Final Battle
This seems to be random. Most find that flying up seems helpful as opposed to other directions, but it is different each time you play the level.

yep it does say x360a, and i did see that initially. I was more referring to an actual name of the person. No worries though, I didn't down vote.

I just thought I would add that when you replay levels looking for eggs; you must complete the level in order to keep the egg. If you go back to recollect a missed egg and quit as soon as you pick it up, the game will not save that egg.

In each level there's a secret egg. You only need to collect each egg once, you can do it on any difficulty. So if you miss an egg while you're getting the difficulty achievements, just load the corresponding level on easy and grab the egg. You MUST complete the level to have the egg count.

The Spine Mountains: After you learn your sword moves, you'll come to a stone archway that'll require you to jump and shimmy over a river. Once you land, turn the corner in front of you and jump onto the ledge on your right. Follow the patch about 20ft and you'll collect your first egg.

Carvahall: Once you finish the fight outside, you'll find yourself in a house. As soon as it loads, jump up onto the rafters right in front of you and head right to find an egg.

Daret Docks: Right after you use your magic to swing the ship's bow to get to the other side, turn left and head to the very end of the dock where you'll be rewarded with an egg.

Daret Town: After you unlock the right side of the gate, you'll get to the third flaming house. Once the citizens put out the fire, go to follow the stairs to the top of the house. Instead of going out the door, head away from the door (onto a beam) balance along the beam until you get to the small platform with the egg on top.

Daret Bridge: After you drop the gate, you'll find yourself at a "U" shaped bridge. Go down and around and you'll find yourself at a ramp leading up. Do NOT go up the ramp yet, instead, fall off the right side of the ramp (directly across from the shack on the left of the bridge). You'll fall down a ledge, walk down another ledge and you'll find the egg.

Ra'zac Chase: When you exit the cave you'll do a circle under the waterfall. The egg's at the bottom of the waterfall. Don't hug the wall too much or you'll hit it and bounce away from the egg. If you miss it just press start and load last checkpoint (beginning of the chase).

Trapped!: As soon as the level starts, run towards the camera and to your right. You'll hit the egg like nobodies business.

Gil'ead City: After ringing the first bell and going through the gate, you'll find a big cement slab circle on the ground. Stand on this and do a running jump to your left. You'll grab the ledge, pull yourself up then jump onto the windowsill on your right. Walk through the building then shimmy to the other building on the wooden plank. Keep going right and you'll drop onto a ledge with the egg on it.

Gil'ead Keep: You wont be able to see it, but once you get up to the "higher grounds" aka the upper ledge of the city's walls, the egg is directly to your right. You went onto the left ledge, the egg is on the right. So what you have to do is navigate the path to get to the other side. If you're confused think of the upper ledges as a compass. You got up on the southeast. The end of the level's at the north (more center, but for the sake of the description), and the egg's at the south.

Durza's Fortress: After you use your magic and pull out the two huge stones, head left and hug the wall to your right. When the path turns left, there will be a gap in the ground in the corner. Fall down the gap and you'll land in a room with the egg.

Flight From Gil'ead: When you see the first underground tunnel, fly into it. (here you can get a dove to raise your health) The egg will be at the bottom/right of the transition to the next tunnel.

Ruins of Orthiad: After you use magic on the purple stone to your left in the wall. You'll see a statue ahead of you on the right. The egg's behind the statue.

The Beor Mountains: When you get to the part in the level where archers hide behind stones that you can break apart with your magic you're close to the egg. When you get to the top you can either go straight up an incline, or turn left and head towards the camera. You want to go on the path to the left to get the egg.

Urgal Encampment: When you get to the part in the level where there's a bunch of layers of rocks that require you to climb, and there's a bunch of archers firing at you you're close to the egg. When you get onto the same level as the archers, head to the left by the magical spears. To the left of the spears you should see a flickering blue light that indicated a level below the level you're standing on. Walk along the edge until you fall down and you'll find the egg.

Misty Gorge: After you come out of the mists you'll come to a broken bridge. Jump off the right side, then run all the way around and take the far left path. It'll wrap around and the egg will be at it's dead-end.

Urgal Attack!: As soon as you start look at your mini-map. There's a V and you can either go left or right, go right. Just follow the path, you'll see the egg at the top of a tree, can't miss it. It's the only blue thing in the level.

Defend the Varden: When you come to a long bridge, halfway through it there will be a staircase heading down. Take that all the way and the egg will be at the bottom.

Final Battle: There's actually no good tip to get this. Durza pretty much controls where you go, and it will show up in the clouds sometime, so you have to keep an eye out to swerve and get it at the right time.
