The Hippogriff "Egg"

TheTamshee: thinks! can this be the impossible scenario ? A Hippogriff "Egg" washed up on the shore at my secret location, unfortunately the nest was destroyed!!
There is an old expression "Jungentur jam grypes equis" which means "To cross griffons with horses", When breeding, Hippogriffs build nests on the ground, and lay only a single, fragile egg. The egg usually hatches in twenty-four hours. Infant Hippogriffs are capable of flight within a week, but it takes many months before they are strong enough to accompany their parent on long journeys.
