Sunrise/Sunset Egg ND?

A lot of ND experiments end in one of two ways: the egg dies, or it hatches too early and gives you a normal dragon. For me, the most annoying is the latter because you never know if it could have turned before it hatched. So I thought: What if one used a Sunrise/Sunset egg and set it so it would run out of time when it can't normally hatch? That way, the only thing that could ruin your experiment is the egg dying, and since the egg will turned from Sunrise/Sunset to Neglected, it will be able to hatch in that normally-unavailable time window.*

I don't know if I'll be able to do an experiment like this myself (I've been VERY busy lately), but I'd like to see if someone else has done/is planning to do an experiment like this!

*For those who don't know: Sunrise dragons can only hatch between 6 A.M. and 12 P.M. EST, and Sunset dragons can only hatch between 6 P.M. and 12 A.M. EST.

May I ask how you know the difference between a sunrise, and a sunset dragon? I'll maybe do this experiment, after I've tried my current experiment "Needle Eye".

Hmm... I never thought about it before, but your plan makes sense. The only problem I see is that sunset/rise eggs are supposed to be completely incapable of hatching in those times. It's worth a shot, though. I'll try this once I'm out of my egg lock and let you know how it goes.
