I ment that the Vykkers would be working with the eggs not the Mudokons themselves. like makeing the enviorment suitiable for maybe early hatching so they can process them as soon as possible to hand over to the sligs. And you mention genetics. Did you ever think they just might expirement on the eggs themselves with the genes to make them more productive Mudokons? And that can be sadistic because maybe a lot of times the gene test fail resulting in a deformity in the Mudokon which then would be kept by the Vykkers for further expirementation. Of course they are not going to nurture Muds but they just might expirement on the eggs themselves for more efficient needs in slave labor or other nasty things.
