The latest Summer update for Grow a Garden introduced a new addition to the game’s selection of Pets – the Crab. This crustacean companion is one of the three new Common-rarity Pets that players can acquire from the Common Summer Egg. Once on your farm, the Crab will help you earn Sheckles by pinching another player.
Let’s take a closer look at what the Crab brings to the gardening experience in Grow a Garden.
### Breaking down the Crab in Grow a Garden
#### Ability
The Crab’s unique ability allows it to randomly steal a small amount of Sheckles from another player on the server. The target is chosen at random, except in servers with only two players. The amount of Sheckles stolen can vary, ranging from tens to a couple of hundred. This ability can provide players with some extra funds, but it is a random occurrence.
#### How to get
To obtain the Crab, players will need to acquire the Common Summer Egg, which has a 35% chance of appearing in the Pet Eggs Shop stock. This Egg comes with a hefty price tag of one million Sheckles, making it more suitable for mid to late-game players. If the Egg is not available in the shop stock, players can check back after 30 minutes for a potential restock.
The Crab has a 25% chance of hatching from the Common Summer Egg, similar to the Seagull. This means that approximately one in every four Egg hatches will yield the Crab. After placing the Egg on the farm, it takes 20 minutes to hatch. Once hatched, players can interact with the Egg to reveal the Crab and add it to their farm.
