If you’ve seen the Silver Monkey in a neighbor’s garden in Grow a Garden, you might be wondering how to get this pet for yourself. Luckily, it’s easier than many other rare pets! Here’s everything you need to know about obtaining this animal, its hatch chance, ability, and more.
How to Get the Silver Monkey in Grow a Garden
To obtain the Silver Monkey, you need to purchase a Legendary egg from the Pet Shop. It’s located to the left of the Gear shop, which is on the opposite end of the map if you’re standing next to the Seed Shop. Head there and check the eggs that are currently for sale. You might see Common, Uncommon, and Rare eggs more often, but when you do spot a Legendary, purchase it for 3,000,000 Sheckles.
It’s a lot of cash, so make sure to farm beforehand. If you want to spend Robux, you will need 129 to directly buy this egg. The shop’s stock rotates based on the timer shown in-game, and there’s a 9% chance of a Legendary egg appearing. Once you buy it, place it on your plot and wait for 4 hours for it to hatch.

There is a 42.55% chance of getting the Silver Monkey in Grow a Garden from this egg. The other options are Cow (42.55%), Sea Otter (10.64%), Turtle (2.13%), and Polar Bear (2.13%).
What does the Silver Monkey do?

It has an 8% chance to refund crops to your inventory, but rare crops are less likely to get refunded. Low-tier crops like Carrots will be refunded much more than a high-tier crop. So once a plant is refunded, you can resell the fruit and make more money from the same item, which can be very useful if you receive a multi-mutated fruit again.
So, overall, while it’s not better than some of the pets obtainable from the Exotic and Night eggs (Event-based), the Silver Monkey is a decent pet to have in Grow a Garden until you can farm money to get to the next tier.
