Pet treats and toys in Grow a Garden are specialized items introduced in the Pet Mutations Update that boost your pets’ XP gain, enhance their passive abilities, and help them reach the crucial level 50 requirement for mutations.

What Are Pet Treats and Toys in Grow a Garden?

Pet treats and toys represent a revolutionary addition to Grow a Garden’s pet system, fundamentally changing how players approach pet progression. Unlike traditional feeding methods that simply maintain hunger levels, these items provide targeted boosts to help pets reach the coveted level 50 threshold required for the new Pet Mutation Machine.

The introduction of these items solved a major pain point for players who previously had to wait weeks or even months for their pets to naturally age to mutation-ready levels. Now, with strategic use of treats and toys, you can accelerate this process dramatically, cutting the time to level 50 by up to 75%.

How Pet Treats and Toys Work

When you feed a pet treat or give a toy to your pet, it triggers specific stat boosts that stack with existing pet abilities. Here’s the technical breakdown:

• Treats: Apply a temporary XP multiplier to all experience gained through normal activities
• Toys: Permanently enhance the pet’s passive ability effectiveness until replaced
• Special Items: Provide instant benefits like level jumps or stat resets

The system works multiplicatively with other boosts, meaning if you have an Owl pet providing +0.20 XP per second and use a Medium Treat (+50% XP), your effective XP gain becomes 0.30 per second.

Complete Guide to Each Pet Treat and Toy in GaG

1. Small Toy – The Budget Booster

The Small Toy resembles a colorful rubber ball and serves as the entry-level passive booster for new players. Despite its playful appearance, this item packs surprising value for its cost.

Crafting Requirements:

• 1x Common Egg (50,000 Sheckles value)
• 1x Coconut Seed (varies by market)
• 1x Fresh Coconut
• 1 Million Sheckles crafting fee

Strategic Usage: I recommend using Small Toys on pets with percentage-based abilities like the Praying Mantis or Pig. A 15% boost to a mutation chance ability can mean the difference between 2% and 2.3% – seemingly small but significant over hundreds of attempts.

Pro Tip: Stock up on Common Eggs when they’re at their lowest price (usually during event releases) to reduce crafting costs.

2. Small Treat – The XP Accelerator

The Small Treat appears as a white bone-shaped biscuit that pets somehow consume entirely (don’t ask how a Dragonfly eats a bone). This craftable item provides the most cost-effective XP boost in the game.

Crafting Requirements:

• 1x Common Egg
• 1x Dragon Fruit Seed (high-value seed)
• 1x Blueberry
• 1 Million Sheckles crafting fee

Optimal Application: Time your Small Treat usage with active play sessions. The 30-minute duration means you want to maximize pet activities during this window. I always use these when I’m:

• Running multiple harvest cycles
• During weather events that increase pet activity
• Stacking with Owl/Night Owl XP boosts

3. Medium Toy – The Gear Shop Gamechanger

The Medium Toy features a squishy dumbbell design and represents a significant upgrade from its smaller counterpart. Only available through the Gear Shop, these items require careful stock monitoring.

Availability Windows:

• Appears randomly in Gear Shop rotation
• Typically priced between 5-10 million Sheckles
• Stock refreshes every 4 hours
• Limited quantity (usually 5-10 per restock)

Best Targets for Medium Toys:

1. Raccoon: Boost fruit duplication chances
2. Dragonfly: Increase Gold mutation frequency
3. Red Fox: Improve seed theft success rate
4. Mimic Octopus: Enhance ability copying effectiveness

4. Medium Treat – The Level Push Essential

Medium Treats look like larger, brown versions of Small Treats and provide the sweet spot between cost and effectiveness. These are crucial for pushing pets through the difficult 40-50 level range.

Purchase Options:

• Sheckles: 5-10 million (varies by stock)
• Robux: 50-100 (during sales)
• Event Tokens: Sometimes available during special events

Stacking Strategy: Combine Medium Treats with:

• Multiple XP-boosting pets (Owl family)
• Special weather events that increase pet activity
• Active feeding to maintain maximum hunger levels

5. Levelup Lollipop – The Premium Instant Boost

The Levelup Lollipop is the holy grail of pet progression items. This Prismatic-tier gear instantly ages your pet by one full level – no waiting, no grinding.

Acquisition Methods:

• Prismatic Gear Shop (extremely rare)
• Special event milestones
• Premium battle pass rewards
• Trading (valued at 50M+ Sheckles)

Strategic Usage Guidelines: Never waste a Levelup Lollipop on pets below level 45. The XP requirement curve means that levels 45-50 take exponentially longer than earlier levels. Here’s the math:

• Level 1-10: ~50,000 XP total
• Level 40-45: ~500,000 XP total
• Level 45-50: ~2,000,000 XP total

Using a Lollipop to skip from 49 to 50 saves approximately 500,000 XP – equivalent to weeks of grinding!

Advanced Strategies for Maximizing Pet Treats and Toys

The “Power Level Protocol”

This strategy I’ve developed can take a pet from hatch to level 50 in under 48 hours:

1. Hour 0-6: Hatch pet, immediately apply Small Toy
2. Hour 6-12: Use first Small Treat during active play
3. Hour 12-24: Apply Medium Toy when available
4. Hour 24-36: Chain Medium Treats with Owl pets
5. Hour 36-48: Use Levelup Lollipop at level 47+

Total Investment: ~20-30M Sheckles Time Saved: 2-3 weeks

The “Budget Mutation Method”

For players with limited resources:

1. Focus on craftable items only (Small Toys/Treats)
2. Farm materials during Mega Harvest events
3. Join community crafting circles for bulk discounts
4. Trade aged common pets for crafting materials

The “Event Exploitation Strategy”

During special events, treat and toy effectiveness often increases:

• Prehistoric Event: +25% to all XP gains
• Summer Harvest: Reduced crafting costs
• Pet Mutation Events: Double effectiveness periods

Monitor the official Discord server for event announcements and stock up accordingly.

Hidden Mechanics and Insider Tips

Secret Stacking Mechanics

Through extensive testing, I’ve discovered several hidden mechanics:

1. Multiplicative Stacking: Treats and toys stack multiplicatively, not additively
2. Hunger Bonus: Pets at 100% hunger receive +10% effectiveness from items
3. Weather Multipliers: Certain weather events boost item effectiveness by up to 50%
4. Pet Synergies: Some pet combinations enhance treat/toy effects

Optimal Pet Combinations for Item Usage

XP Maximization Setup:

• Primary: Owl (base XP boost)
• Secondary: Blood Owl (enhanced XP)
• Tertiary: Sea Turtle (bonus XP bursts)
• Target Pet: Your mutation candidate

This setup can achieve 3-4x normal XP rates when combined with Medium Treats.

Crafting Material Farming Routes

Optimize your material gathering with these proven routes:

1. Coconut Circuit: Plant 50+ coconut trees for Small Toy crafting
2. Dragon Fruit Dynasty: Focus on Dragon Fruit mutations for valuable seeds
3. Blueberry Bonanza: Mass plant during rain events for Wet mutations

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Wasteful Usage Patterns

1. Using items on young pets: Never use premium items on pets below level 30
2. Poor timing: Applying treats during AFK periods wastes duration
3. Wrong pet selection: Some pets benefit more from toys than others
4. Ignoring hunger: Hungry pets receive reduced benefits from items

Economic Pitfalls

• Overpaying during peak hours (prices can spike 200%)
• Crafting during material shortages
• Not checking current market values
