Hornbill or Quetzal: what the numbers say

Hornbill is a Rare cocoon animal and Quetzal an Epic one, but Hornbill runs 1-hour activities and Quetzal 2-hour ones. Hornbill does 6 activities before a 12-hour sleep, Quetzal 4 before a 24-hour one. Finishing an activity early costs 700 coins with Hornbill and 1,200 with Quetzal. Per 30 minutes of activity at level 10, Quetzal is ahead on both cocoons (9 against 7.5) and heart gems (166 against 141). Collected on time and counting the sleep, a level 10 Hornbill makes about 120 cocoons and 2,256 heart gems a day, against 108 and 1,992 for a level 10 Quetzal, so per day Hornbill comes out ahead on both. That pace means collecting Hornbill every hour until it falls asleep. Hornbill hatches from the Green Egg, while Quetzal hatches from the Purple Egg.
