You are certain this is a pumpkin wyrm egg, but the small tail poking out makes you reconsider.
Every gourd patch has a few odd individuals. In the gourd wyrms' case, there are some that lack interest in gourds, which is a rather concerning matter to all the other gourd wyrms. Having no interest in caring for the gourd patch or in hollowing out and storing food leads to these individuals' exile. However, for these wyrms, life outside the gourd patch is better as they have a very different interest - and it is not in pumpkins. These odd wyrms enjoy living on fields that have eggplants. Although not as many in number, these wyrms come together and form their own smaller families where they act in a very similar way to the pumpkin and other gourd wyrms. The wyrms are always busy with their eggplants, gathering eggplant flesh for the next season, taking apart dead or rotting eggplants, or hollowing out new ones. The hollowed eggplants are made into new homes for the growing hatchlings, even if there is no certainty these hatchlings will have the same passion for eggplants as the adults do. Those who lack the odd interest return to the gourd patches, where they are taken into the family and raised along with the other gourd wyrm hatchlings.
