"Tamagotchi is a tiny pet from cyberspace who needs your love to survive and grow. If you take good care of your Tamagotchi pet, it will slowly grow bigger, healthier, and more beautiful every day. But if you neglect your little cyber creature, your Tamagotchi may grow up to be mean or ugly. How old will your Tamagotchi be when it returns to its home planet? What kind of virtual caretaker will you be?" - Bandai

Tamagotchi with pull tab

When you first pull out the tab in your Tamagotchi an egg will appear. After you set the clock it will take 5 minutes and the egg will hatch. For the first hour of your little creatures life, he will need almost constant attention, so be prepared to have an hour spent with your little pet. If you check the health meter you will determine what the young Tamagotchi needs. When he is just born, everything will be empty. Your job is to feed the little one meals until he is full, and play a game with him until he is happy, and clean up his mess after he goes poop. For that first hour the hungry and happy hearts will empty rather fast. After a good 20 to 30 minutes he will take a nap. After a short 5 minute nap he will wake up. After another 30 minutes or more, he will finally cease his demand need for food and play when he changes into his child form.

From this point on your Tamagotchi will not need as much attention as he did when he was a baby. Everything you do from this point on will determine what kind of caretaker you are. Six to eight days from now you will have your adult character. During this time you will need to discipline your young Tama when it calls for your attention, but doesn’t need anything and refuses to eat and play a game. You can make your Tamagotchi happy by feeding it candy instead of playing the game, but it is good to play the game and keep the weight down and keep your little friend healthy.

While you are raising your little cyber creature you may notice as it reaches older ages (ie: 16+) it will begin to require more care. Don't get upset with your little friend though, it's just his way of showing age. He also wants more love and memories from you before he departs so when he does return home, he will have lots of experiences to share with his Tamagotchi friends. And if you really feel you are frustrated, don't take it out on the Tama. Many Tamagotchi are abused and mistreated due to owners frustration. Don't be one of these caretakers. Instead of taking out you anger you can simply do this. Go to clock mode by pressing the middle button. Now press the far right button and the far left button at the same time. If you did this right the clock will stop and will now say "SET" on the bottom right. This is a way to set the clock, but also a way to pause. If you need a time away from caretaking this is the best option. When you are ready to care for your little Tama once again, simply set the clock to the correct time and press the far right button once. The clock will start and you can hit the middle button and go back to caring for your Tamagotchi.

Tamagotchi will always return to its home planet. How well you care for it helps determine how long Tamagotchi will stay on Earth. When it is time for Tamagotchi to return to its home planet, there is nothing you can do. Give your self time to morn your little friend. I am one of many that knows what it's like to lose a Tamagotchi I love. When you have recovered from your loss you can always hatch another. Here is the scale Bandai prints in the Tamagotchi Instructions:

Will You Be A Good Caretaker For Your Tamagotchi?

• 0-5 Tama years: Try harder next time.
  
• 6-10 Tama years: Room for improvement.
  
• 11-16 Tama years: Good job.
  
• 17-22 Tama years: Excellent.
  
• 23+ Tama years: Amazing!
  

To hatch another Tamagotchi simply press the far right and the far left button at the same time, you will hear a beep and another egg shall appear. The clock should still be the same as you left it. You can also hatch another by using a pointed object and gently pushing the button located on the back of the Tamagotchi.

Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day!!
