Our family hunts were epic. In good weather the eggs were outdoors - on the roof, in the car tailpipe, buried under a rock, up in a tree. they rarely found half.
One year we used camo eggs - and all three of our kids have red-green color issues. They found very few.
Just a month ago my wife found one in a decorative pot on top of a cabinet - where it'd been for 20 years. Each time we have one of these epic finds, we share it with a family text.
Red-green issues are a benefit against most camouflage. It took me a *long* time to understand what the nature programs were saying about animals hiding in situations where they were totally obvious to me. How can you say that tiger is hiding in the grass???
There's the story of using color-confusion soldiers to spot camo from the air. That was in WWII? I think they've solved the issue by now. But with camo plastic eggs- maybe not so much science. I only know they didn't find the eggs@!
