How to Use This Pet Comparison Tool
Picking the right pet in Grow a Garden can be the difference between a solid trade and getting rinsed. This tool lets you put two pets head-to-head so you can see exactly how they stack up. No guesswork, no alt-tabbing between wiki pages.
Just search for any pet in either slot, click to select it, and the comparison table fills in automatically. You'll see everything side by side — base value, rarity, tier, XP per hour, hatch weight, growth rate, and all three weight thresholds (Huge, Titanic, Godly). The tool highlights which pet wins in each category, so you can tell at a glance which one has the edge.
What to Look for When Comparing Pets
- Base value — This is the starting point for trade value, but remember that weight class and mutations multiply this number significantly. A pet with a lower base can still be worth more if it's Godly weight.
- Growth rate — Higher growth rate means the pet hits heavy weight classes faster. If you're planning to farm weight, this number matters. Check each pet's full breakdown on its pet page.
- Weight thresholds — Lower thresholds are easier to reach. A pet that reaches Godly at 1000 kg is way more practical than one needing 6000 kg, even if the base values are similar.
- Ability — Some abilities are game-changers for farming. XP boosts and mutation applicators can make you way more Sheckles in the long run than a pet with a slightly higher base value but a useless ability.
Which Pet Should You Pick?
There's no single "best" pet in Grow a Garden— it depends on what you're trying to do:
- For trading: Focus on base value and rarity. Prismatic and Mythical pets hold their value best. A Fairy or Cosmos Dragon will always be in demand.
- For farming: Look at growth rate and ability. Pets with high growth rates and XP-boosting abilities pay for themselves over time. Don't sleep on Kiwi or Night Owl for farming setups.
- For collection: Pick whatever you like. But if you're going for a full collection, use the collection tracker to keep tabs on what you own.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I compare a pet with a plant?
Not in this tool — pets and plants use completely different value systems. You can check plant values on the plant value calculator instead.
Does this account for weight class differences?
The comparison shows raw stats. To factor in weight class, use the pet value calculator with both pets at the same weight for a fair comparison.
Are these values updated with the latest game patch?
Yes — the data comes from our regularly updated database. If a game update changes a pet's stats, we reflect it here within a few days.
