+=== Porting other author's eggs
+
+If you want to port old eggs someone else made to a new Chicken version, follow the steps above for the porting itself. Other than that, there are two things you should regard. 
+
+First, you can find the repositories of Chicken eggs on these lists:
+* [[https://www.upyum.com/eggs-repo/egg-repositories.4.html|Chicken 4]]
+* [[https://www.upyum.com/eggs-repo/egg-repositories.5.html|Chicken 5]]
+
+Second, be sure to check back with the original author (their email address is usually in the metadata files of the egg) so they're aware of and okay with you porting their code. And finally, to get the egg listed in the index, announce it on the mailing list.
