AI Overview
Compiled by AI from community sources — may be incomplete or inaccurate; verify before relying on it.
A gourmet egg harvested from the boreal/tundra-adapted subspecies of the Quasi Grazer "space cow", prized by chefs for its complex flavor and sold as a miscellaneous trade good for around 56 aUEC.
What it is
The Boreal Quasi Grazer Egg is an animal-sourced harvestable (in-game class `Harvestable_Trophy_1H_QuasigrazerEgg_BorealForest`) — a single-handed (S1) "trophy" egg collected from a dead Quasi Grazer. In fiction it is a gourmet egg renowned for its complex flavor and is always in demand from restaurateurs and gourmands. Its taste varies depending on the animal's diet and environment, so the boreal-biome variant is one of several flavor-distinct egg types. It carries Size 1, ~0 kg mass, and a volume of 1,000 µSCU (1 mSCU).

Gameplay use
Functionally it is a TRADE commodity / miscellaneous harvestable rather than a known crafting ingredient. Players kill or down a Quasi Grazer, pull the eggs off the carrier pouches on its belly, and carry them to a shop terminal to sell. There is no documented crafting recipe or medical/consumable buff effect tied to it in current data — it is a gourmet/food-flavored trade good. A community request thread exists asking CIG to let players farm the eggs without killing the animal, indicating harvesting currently requires the creature to be dead.

Value & where to sell
Average price is about 56 aUEC per egg (volatile, patch-dependent; data from game version 4.8.0). It is sold/bought at shop terminals in the Pyro system: - Shepherd's Rest — Bloom, Pyro - The Yard — Bloom, Pyro - Bullock's Reach — Terminus, Pyro - Kinder Plots — Terminus, Pyro Since a single Quasi Grazer carries roughly 8-10 eggs, one harvested animal yields a modest stack of these.

Where to harvest
Eggs are taken from Quasi Grazers, large warm-blooded herd animals ("space cows") that roam terraformed planets in the UEE. They commonly appear on microTech (Stanton) and other terraformed worlds, in herds. The Boreal variant is tied to boreal-forest / cold biomes (its class name ends `_BorealForest`), and players report finding multiple Quasi Grazer types (Tundra, Boreal, Desert) in the same general areas while flying over microTech. To harvest: locate a herd, down the animal, then collect the eggs from the carrier pouches on its underside.

Source
Source creature: the Quasi Grazer (specifically the boreal/tundra-adapted subspecies). The species originated on the plains of Quasi on Terra (Terra III) and was genetically adapted into several biome subspecies. A notable biological quirk: after the eggs are laid, their shells chemically bond to specialized pouches on the grazer's belly, where the animal carries them until they hatch — which is why the eggs are harvested directly off the creature's underside.

Grades & variants
There is no Grade A/AA tier system; instead the egg comes in biome-themed variants, each a distinct item: - Boreal Quasi Grazer Egg (this item — boreal forest / cold biome) - Desert Quasi Grazer Egg - Grassland Quasi Grazer Egg (found on microTech) - Tundra Quasi Grazer Egg (and Jungle is also referenced) Item databases note the Boreal and Desert eggs are a "100% composition match" — i.e. mechanically/economically near-identical, differing mainly by the biome the parent grazer lives in and the resulting flavor. The related "Quasi Grazer Tongue" is a separate harvestable from the same creature.

Lore / Trivia
CIG introduced the four Quasi Grazer types via an official Star Citizen post, describing them as large warm-blooded herd animals first discovered on the vast plains of Quasi on Terra, "most notable for their unusual method of carrying harvestable eggs on their underside." The community has nicknamed them "space cows." The egg flavor lore (varying by diet and environment) is reflected mechanically in the separate biome variants.
