The new Smithing Event update on November 15th, 2025, has just started in Grow a Garden. Unlike previous events, where you just buy eggs, this one lets you craft pets at special workbenches and dig for exclusive rewards. You’ll find twelve pets total – six from the Gem Egg, two you can craft yourself, and four rare digging pets. Let’s break down everything you need to know about getting all the Smithing Event pets in Grow a Garden.
How to Get the Gem Egg Pets in Grow a Garden
You can get these new pets through three different methods during the Smithing Event. Each method has its own advantages and different pets you can unlock.
Method 1: Crafting Gem Eggs
Head to the main event island, and you’ll see four crafting workbenches placed in each direction. Walk up to the Pet Workbench and interact with it. You can craft a Gem Egg by placing:
- 1x Common Egg
- 3x Common Coal
- 1,000,000 Sheckles
The egg takes 10 minutes to craft, and once it’s done, you’ll need to wait another 4 hours and 10 minutes for it to hatch.
Method 2: Crafting Smithing Pets
The same Pet Workbench also lets you craft two exclusive pets that you can’t get anywhere else. These pets require other pets as materials, plus coal and Sheckles.
Method 3: Digging for Pets
The digging mechanic makes a comeback in this event, and it’s your only way to get four special pets. You can play this minigame by clicking the Shop button on the left of your screen. Start with a maximum of 10 digs available. Every dig reveals a treasure, and you need to collect at least 4 treasures but no more than 7 before the island resets. Don’t worry about running out of digs, because you automatically get 1 dig back every 5 minutes.
Once you’ve collected all the treasures on your current island, you have two options to reset it and start digging again. You can either pay 1 trillion Sheckles or spend 59 Robux. The reset gives you a fresh island with new treasure spots to dig up.
