Best Grow a Garden 2 pets, ranked by trade value

Last updated: November 4, 2026

Best, on this page, has one precise meaning: the pets other players give the most for. All 36 released pets are ranked into tiers by the trade value of their Normal form, on the points scale from the values list. Those points are community estimates, ours included, because the game publishes no prices; the methodology shows how the scale is anchored and where its gaps were derived. This is a value ranking, not an ability ranking, and the bottom of the page is plain about the difference.

Trading status, checked November 4, 2026: player trading is live in Grow a Garden 2, through the in-game trade system. The game publishes no trade values, so every value in this section is a community estimate in points on one anchored scale, with the gaps derived in the open. Read the methodology before you trade on any number here.

Why the tiers use the Normal form

Every pet exists in four variants, and the variants do not scale evenly: one pet's Big form can be worth fifty of its Normal form while another's barely doubles. Ranking by the Normal value keeps all 36 pets on one comparable footing. The strongest variant column in each table shows the ceiling for that pet, and it can reorder the picture completely: the highest single entry on the whole values list is a Mega Ice Serpent at 210,000 points, marked est. because it is derived from the measured Mega ratio, which itself rests on only three anchored pairs. Treat that one figure as a placeholder until real trades confirm it.

Tier S

One pet stands alone up here on its Normal value: the guild reward serpent that almost nobody owns in any form.

	Pet	Normal value	Strongest variant	Ability
	Ice Serpent Super	6,200 pts	Mega 210,000 pts est.	Flies around the garden breathing frost that freezes intruders in place.

Tier A

The chase tier: the Secret pet, the guild and event exclusives, and the pets traders ask for by name.

Pet	Normal value	Strongest variant	Ability
Kitsune Secret	600 pts	Mega 20,000 pts est.	Steals fruit from other players' gardens at night; stolen fruit has a 20% chance to arrive with the Chakra mutation.
Black Dragon Super	300 pts	Mega 10,000 pts	Flies around the garden breathing fire on intruders, and lays Common Eggs that hatch into pets.
Muffin Man Super	300 pts	Mega 10,000 pts est.	Triggers Sugar Rush every 10 minutes: sell prices rise 25% for 10 seconds (more on variants, capped at +70%).
Phoenix Super	300 pts	Mega 10,000 pts est.	Every 30 minutes, burns the smallest fully grown plant and replants it at a new random size.
Red Panda Super	300 pts	Mega 10,000 pts est.	Sneaks out at night to steal seeds from other players' gardens, more often than the Fox.
Jandel Monkey Mythic	120 pts	Big 50,000 pts	Every 15 minutes, summons a random weather event across the whole server.
Scarecrow Mythic	120 pts	Mega 3,200 pts	After a theft, briefly deters further stealing from the garden.
Shadow Dragon Super	110 pts	Mega 3,700 pts est.	Applies the Veil mutation to planted crops.

Tier B

Real trade pieces: valuable enough to headline a small trade, common enough that one changes hands most days.

Pet	Normal value	Strongest variant	Ability
Jackalope Legendary	60 pts	Mega 2,000 pts est.	Passive walk speed boost; Big variants boost harder.
Raccoon Super	60 pts	Mega 2,000 pts est.	Sneaks out at night to steal fruit from empty gardens and raises the steal limit by 25.
Unicorn Mythic	50 pts	Rainbow 7,700 pts	Doubles the chance of Rainbow mutations on plants and fruit.

Golden Dragonfly Mythic	35 pts	Mega 1,200 pts est.	Doubles the chance of Gold mutations on plants and fruit.
Wolf Mythic	25 pts	Mega 830 pts est.	Summons a pack of beasts when the moon rises.
Bald Eagle Mythic	20 pts	Big 1,200 pts	Grabs intruders and flies them out of the garden.
Bear Mythic	20 pts	Big 2,900 pts	Tackles intruders, pins them and throws them out of the garden.
Firefly Mythic	15 pts	Big 900 pts	Makes every player's newly planted crops on the server 2% bigger per Firefly.
Monkey Mythic	15 pts	Rainbow 4,000 pts	Picks ripe fruit and brings it to the player.

Tier C

Priced, but small: the everyday pets the anchor list still puts a figure on.

Pet	Normal value	Strongest variant	Ability
Swan Legendary	8 pts	Mega 270 pts est.	Sprays water that speeds up nearby plants.
Squirrel Legendary	6 pts	Mega 200 pts est.	Pecks the ground and digs up seeds.
Bee Legendary	5 pts	Rainbow 800 pts	Patrols the garden and swarms intruders.
Butterfly Legendary	5 pts	Mega 170 pts est.	Helps every player's plants on the server grow 3% faster; the bonus stacks.
Hedgehog Rare	1 pts	Mega 1,000 pts est.	Rolls at intruders and knocks them back.
Turkey Rare	1 pts	Mega 1,000 pts	Pecks the ground and digs up random seeds.

Tier D

Zero points on the anchored scale. These move as throw-ins and favours, so their price is whatever the trade they are padding needs them to be.

Pet	Strongest variant	Ability
Bunny Common	Mega 2,800 pts	Raises walk speed by 5.
Chicken Rare	Mega 1,000 pts est.	Lays a Small Brown Egg about every 5 minutes; the eggs are a cooking ingredient and do not hatch.

Robin Legendary	Mega 5,000 pts	Flies around eating ripe fruit and sometimes drops seeds.
Sugar Bunny Common	Mega 2,800 pts est.	Raises walk speed and jump height by 5 while equipped; stronger on Big and Mega variants.
Turtle Rare	Mega 1,000 pts est.	Adds 10 backpack space but cuts walk speed by 2.

What this ranking cannot see

Abilities earn money that points do not measure. A Deer sits in tier D at zero points, yet its growth speed bonus pays its owner every single day; a Unicorn's rainbow chance is worth more to a serious farmer than its 50 points suggest. If you are choosing pets to play with rather than to trade, read the ability column and the pet database, not just the tier.

Demand moves faster than any list. An event weekend can double what a pet fetches overnight, and a guild reward rotation can flood one that was rare last week. The Friday refresh follows the market, but between refreshes the WFL calculator verdict on a live offer is worth more than a tier printed here.

Zero points is not zero use. The tier D pets are the game's everyday map spawns. They are priced at zero because supply swamps demand, not because they do nothing; several of them are the first pets a new player should buy.
