mutations

The mutations entry is not a pet at all but a reference hub that points to the broader mutation system in Grow a Garden, with the data even flagging it under the Easter-Type Pets grouping. There is no ability, egg source, or hatch chance here because mutations are properties applied to crops, not creatures you incubate.

Understanding this distinction matters for build planning. Mutations are the single biggest lever on your earnings: a base crop sells for a modest sum, but the same crop carrying a stacked mutation can sell for an order of magnitude more. Weather events, certain pet abilities, and seasonal mechanics like the Easter set all feed into how often and how strongly your produce mutates.

Because this is a category and not a hatchable companion, it does not "earn a team slot" in the usual sense. Instead, treat it as the design target your actual team should serve: pick pets and crops that maximize mutation frequency and value, and you are effectively building around everything this page links to. For a serious player, mastering the mutation chart is more profitable than chasing any single rare pet.
