I don't think it's complicated or anything, basically it's an area that will consistently spawn a pokemon of an otherwise rare-ish type using the same spawning rules as everywhere else. We have a Vulpix nest here and it's a fairly large area, but has maybe 15-20 spawns where Vulpix are not at all available outside of the nest area. You need to walk around simply because the specific spawn spots are still only 1/hr or 2/hr.
You also can know/tell it's a nest because the average IVs from the nest will be lower than 50% (nest pokemon are like the opposite of hatched pokemon and often have low IVs).
There are also areas that consistently spawn something, but aren't a nest. I have a Diglett spot and a Clefairy spot near me where I can reliable catch them when they're otherwise tough to find. But it's not a nest, they have normal IVs and there's only a few set spawns of them.
Ok thanks! It would appear that the place is indeed a nest. The IVs are all so low. 30% and below haha

do the size/weight values mean anything?

Got a Charmander that's 15/13/13 or 13/15/14 Bad news is its 257K dust and 505 candy away from being a max level Charizard....and I have seen like 5 Charmanders since game launched lol Dust is easy, GL getting the candy though  5 isn't bad, here in Belgium I've seen exactly 0. Got 1 from an egg. I've almost caught enough Squirtles for a Blastoise, but I've come across 1 Bulbasaur and 0 Charmanders... Where the nests at. i was excited to find out that a squirtle appears at 9 pm down the street from me everyday. then, i went to san francisco, and caught about 20 squirtles in a few hours. nests are op. =) however, niantic has countered that effectively by making nest spawns have lowers IVs. so, you'll never get your best there, but you will get those necessary candies. i would not evolve such a low level charmander myself. Its Level 23. Only reason it wrote 505 candy is because I added the 125 to make it a charizard whats the cp? 745cp Charmeleon. 71 hp 2200dust and powered. Level 17 actually....guess it is kinda low. seems good enough to me. i expected it to be much lower. its not like charizard is going to be a supporting character for your gym fights so why the hell not. i dont see the point in powering it up though. its not top ten for gym fights, or defense. Tied for 10th in highest possible CP. Anyone found a working tracker site? I am finding squat 
skiplagged.com/pokemon
it works very well, the only problem being that the pokemon show up as silhouettes so if you dont know your pokemon then you might get confused.
you can also filter out all the shit you dont want to see as they appear, which helps heaps because the silhouettes in high density areas makes for a clusterfuck that makes recognising pokemon near impossible.
the site only seems to work for areas that have huge spawns of pokemon though. doesnt work for quieter sububan areas for example

Well they mean the pokemon is not in the norm, we haven't found the exact purpose yet but it doesn't mean there isn't one!

There are achievements based on the size of pokemon caught. So instead of catch 250 Rattata, it's 50 tiny Rattata. Could be the only reason /shrug

Wouldn't be surprised if they add a contest feature like in Ruby/Sapphire and height/weight comes into it there.
Right now it does seem entirely useless though. Definitely not linked to CP.

It's all luck. I got to level 23 with only 1 10KM egg, but then got 3-4 in a row.
I got to lvl 24 with only 1 10km egg and only got my second 1 half way through lvl 24.
Also that first 10km egg is scripted.

As in every1 will get 1 early on. Also its scripted that youll get some rare pokemon early on too. I got an arcanine when i was like lvl 4. I also had a friend that just started and found a gengar that didnt appear for any1 else because it was scripted for him, to get him hooked obvs...

I don't think that's true. I play alongside someone who didn't get a 10km egg until level 20.

He probably did and doesn't remember. Ive never heard of any1 not getting a 20k egg tbh

I really don't think you have much evidence here, and I couldn't find any poking around either. It's very likely most people will get a 10km egg early on simply because of the # of eggs you get and hatch while leveling and the drop rate of 10km eggs (~5-10%). People most likely get them early because you start the game with 9 empty egg slots that you get to fill vs later on when you are constantly maxed in eggs (as in you have like a 30-60% to get a 10km egg in your first 9 eggs depending on what the drop rate actually is).
There's also a lot that colors people's opinions. If you hatch 2km eggs first and/or use incubators you'll probably receive a pretty big boom & bust cycle to the 10km eggs because you aren't cycling the eggs at an even rate.

You would know that's not true reading the posts in the conversation. I got my first 10km at the very end of level 21 after hatching 48 eggs. It's just luck, some have better egg luck than others. I would remember if I hatched one of the 10km eggs.

I dont know if eggs are scriptes but rare pokemon early on? I don't think so haha, I didn't get shit until much later. My first "rare" was the 2nd evolution of Poliwrath, not even the final form, after a few days.

Yes, take your pokemon for a walk if they are overweight and stop feeding them candy.

The only scripted Mons are the starters you see when you make you character at first. Eggs are random. Completely random. I think what's in each egg is determined when we get the egg in our inventory but it might also be randomed when it hatches (I doubt this is the case because their could be ways to mess with the RNG and get something else).

Low lvl eggs gives limited CP in the same fashion wild pokemons become better by levelling up.

Egg pokemon hatch at the exact level as you were when you got the egg to a maximum of level 20. Wild Pokemon are anywhere from 1 to your level with a cap of level 30.
I was referring to the Pokemon species only in my post
