The egg must be ''hatched'' by the player, and the resulting P3 will live on the Habitarium. If the population of the Habitarium reaches its limit, or if the player simply prefers not to hatch the egg right away, eggs can be stored (''harvested'') in the player's bag to be hatched at a later time or discarded. However, if the egg is left too long in the nest, it will hatch on its own and the P3 will escape, giving the player no experience. | ||
When P3s pass on, they produce gems, and the value of these gems depends on the duration of their lives. In order to slow the P3 aging process, the P3s must be taken care of. Neglecting them by forcing them to work without rest or food will cause them to pass on earlier. To see the lifespan meter of a specific P3, the player must click on the P3 and toggle the panel at the bottom to the screen with three gems and a meter (shown at right). Once this meter reaches the end, the P3 automatically dies, and the player receives the highest valued gem, worth 150 XP. | When P3s pass on, they produce gems, and the value of these gems depends on the duration of their lives.

===Status=== | |||
P3s have three status bars: health, hunger, and fatigue. ''Health'' decreases when attacked by invading pests or other P3s, and ''hunger'' and ''fatigue'' decrease gradually. All three conditions can be recovered by placing P3s in buildings. | |||
Additionally, items from the Shop can be used to heal statuses without player intervention. Nectar recovers health; Cornmeal, Specks of Cheese, and Bacon Crumbs make P3s less hungry; and Apple Bites, Candy Sprinkles, and Bits of Berry Jelly cure fatigue. | |||

These P3s are the only ones that can lay eggs in nests and incubate them until they are ready to hatch. When not nesting, they can gather resources at a somewhat slower pace than [[#Workers|Workers]]. If necessary, they can also defend the Habitarium from pests however they are not very good at it and will most likely lose. They cannot build or repair buildings. Nesters also require sleep and health in order to lay eggs. | [[File:habitarium jobs.png|frame|right|This Nester can perform any task, but is best at breeding.]]These P3s are the only ones that can lay eggs in nests and incubate them until they are ready to hatch.
