Quick answer
Blackhole Egg and Cherub Egg use the same six reported search zones: the Giant Tree, the waterfall cave, the cliffs outside the cave, the cliff between Forest and Desert, the Desert pyramid, and the hidden maze entered through the pond beside the pyramid.
Pro Game Guides and TechWiser’s September 16, 2026 guides agree on these zones. Watch for the rare-egg announcement at the top of the screen; TechWiser reports that only one of the two eggs can spawn at a time.
All six Blackhole and Cherub egg zones
| # | Zone | Exact area to check | Fast landmark |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Giant Tree | The small room near the top and the lower upper branches. | Travel behind the Sell Shop toward the huge tree. |
| 2 | Waterfall cave | Inside the cave hidden behind the waterfall. | Go behind the Track Shop, find the river, and follow it upstream. |
| 3 | Outside the cave | The cliffs immediately left and right of the far cave opening. | Continue through the waterfall cave instead of turning back. |
| 4 | Forest–Desert cliff | The cliff edge between Forest and Desert, near the right side of the beach. | Sweep the biome border rather than the middle of either biome. |
| 5 | Desert pyramid | Inside the opening in the pyramid. | Head toward the Desert on the left side of the map. |
| 6 | Hidden maze | The maze corners. | Jump into the small pond beside the pyramid to enter. |
1. Giant Tree
Start behind the Sell Shop and ride straight toward the Giant Tree. Climb to the top and check the small room first. Then inspect the slightly lower branches around the upper canopy. The guides describe multiple possible spots within this one zone, so seeing an empty room does not finish the check.
2. Cave behind the waterfall
Go behind the Track Shop, reach the river, and follow the water upstream. Enter the cave behind the waterfall and check the interior before moving through to the far exit. This is easy to miss if you treat the waterfall as a dead end.
3. Cliffs outside the cave
Continue through the cave until you reach its other opening, then check the cliffs on both sides. Searching only inside the cave leaves this adjacent zone unchecked.
4. Cliff between Forest and Desert
Search the high edge where the Forest meets the Desert, near the beach side. Pro Game Guides reports two possible spots in this zone. A flying mount is especially useful here because the route involves elevation.
5. Desert pyramid
Travel toward the Desert biome and inspect the pyramid’s opening. Do this before entering the maze; it is a quick surface check and keeps the route efficient.
6. Maze below the pond
Find the small pond beside the pyramid and jump in to enter the maze. Check the corners methodically. Do not leave after the first empty turn—the egg can appear in different corners.
Suggested search order after the alert
If you are near the central shops when the announcement appears, use this order:
- Giant Tree room and branches.
- Waterfall cave interior.
- Both cliffs outside the far cave opening.
- Forest–Desert cliff edge.
- Pyramid opening.
- Pond entrance and maze corners.
The route groups adjacent locations and ends with the maze, where navigation takes longer. If your radar points elsewhere, trust its live direction over this fixed order.
Best preparation
- Equip your fastest flying pet. Pro Game Guides recommends Phoenix for the obstacles and elevated spots.
- Watch the announcement. Search only after the game reports a Blackhole or Cherub spawn.
- Use the Ethereal Radar if available. The location guides report that it points to Ethereal eggs.
- Turn home immediately after pickup. The egg’s break timer starts when you carry it. A clean return matters more than checking one extra zone.
- Keep basket space open. If the interface reports that the egg basket is full, return and unload before continuing.
If the egg is not there
Check the radar and move on to the next zone if your current spot is empty. Search each zone’s sub-locations: the Giant Tree has branches as well as a room, the cave has outside cliffs, and the maze has several corners.
If you missed the announcement, watch for the next Blackhole or Cherub spawn message before starting another full sweep.
What to do after pickup
Carry the egg back to your ranch plot, place it in an empty nest, dismount if the nest prompts you, and hatch it. The beginner guide covers that complete loop. For choosing the resulting mount, continue to the pets guide.
