I think I figured it out. I've also noticed the same. I think that part shows which is closer to finishing. If a buddy is closer to finding a candy, then it will show the buddy. If an egg is closer to hatching than a buddy finding a candy, it will show the egg. I'll do more test, but that's what I noticed. If you incubate nothing, then the buddy will show full time. So my theory is that it will show which item has the least remaining distance. I haven't found a way to change that setting. Let me know if this is what you're observing.
