The Hatchery is a large structure built of stone, large enough to house sauropods and living quarters for the many humans or dinosaurs who oversaw it.[2] The building is surrounded by pastureland, providing food for the expecting dinosaurs inside.[3]

The hatchery contains a nesting room with egg basins made of hardened clay and padded with ferns, a pipe organ that could be played by an animal with large feet, a resting chamber for relaxation, an incubation room kept at about 101 degrees fahrenheit, a human sleeping chamber capable of housing up to twelve hatchery workers, dining areas for human inhabitants, guest quarters, a windmill, and a signal tower housing a faceted quartz stone.[4]

History[]

Arthur and Will Denison were led to the Hatchery by Sylvia Romano, shortly after arriving in Dinotopia in November of 1862.[5] They spent a few days there, getting acquinted with the Dinotopian way of life, before departing for Waterfall City.[6]
