For players like me who spend a lot of time hatching eggs in Grow a Garden, the Rooster is an absolutely essential pet. This Rare pet, added in the Animal Update, has one of the most practical and time-saving abilities in the entire game: it speeds up the hatching process for all your eggs. While it is currently unobtainable, it remains a key pet for any serious collector.
This guide will cover the Rooster’s appearance and its incredibly useful passive trait that will save you hours of waiting.
🐓 Appearance
The Rooster has a fun and colorful design. It shares most of its model with the basic Chicken pet but has some key differences. It has a blue base, an orange head and feet, and a bright red beak and comb on its head. It’s a classic farm animal look that fits perfectly in the game’s aesthetic.
✨ The Egg Hatching Trait
The Rooster’s single passive trait is what makes it so valuable. It provides a passive boost that increases the hatch speed of all eggs by approximately 20%. This is a massive time-saver, especially when hatching high-tier eggs that can take 8 hours or more.
The most amazing part of this ability is that it stacks. If you have multiple Roosters active in your garden, the hatch speed bonus increases. I’ve seen the math, and with 8 active Roosters, you can reduce an 8-hour hatch time down to just 1 hour and 20 minutes! This makes it one of the most powerful support pets for anyone focused on hatching rare pets from eggs like the Bug Egg or Paradise Egg.
🥚 How to Obtain the Rooster
The Rooster is hatched from a Rare Egg. However, the wiki notes that the Rare Egg is currently unobtainable, which means the Rooster is also unobtainable for now. Players who have them from before are very lucky!
