The Grow a Garden Zen Egg is home to the first prismatic rarity pet in the game! In this guide, I introduce you to the full roster of Zen animals, including their hatch chance, abilities, and more!

Start hatching eggs over on Roblox. For more on the Zen Update, check out my Grow a Garden Zen Tree guide, telling you all the tips and tricks to let it reach its final stage!

How To Get Zen Eggs

There are two ways to get Zen Eggs (F2p-friendly) during the Zen Update. This includes:

  • Tanuki Merchant NPC
    • The Tanuki Merchant restocks hourly and has the chance to sell Zen Eggs for 30 Chi each.
  • Zen Tree
    • Offering Tranquil mutated crops to the Zen Channeller NPC will slowly but surely grow the Zen Tree. At each interval, the NPC will award you with event-themed prizes, including free Zen Eggs.

It seems you’ve stumbled upon my bio! I’m Sho, your local weeb. Off the clock I am typically watching anime, reading manga, or doing art. I think it’s safe to say that all my unpaid thoughts revolve around anime… That said, watch One Piece! (Or don’t I’m just a biography.)
