Grow a Garden Pet Comparison Tool: Compare Two Pets Side by Side
By Jordan Lee · Pet Mechanics Specialist · Updated
The Grow a Garden pet comparison tool puts two pets side by side. Pick any two of the 359 pets in the GAGdata database and read their rarity, XP per hour, ability, how to get them and trade value range in one table. A missing value shows as PENDING.
What Is the Grow a Garden Pet Comparison Tool?
Grow a Garden is a Roblox farming game. Pets are companions you hatch from eggs. Each pet has a rarity, an ability, an XP rate and a trade value. The comparison tool lines up two pets so you can read those fields next to each other.
It reads the same pet database as the Pet Values page. The database holds 359 entries and was last updated June 22, 2026. This tool compares two pets at a time. It does not rank all pets. For a ranked list, use the Pet Tier List.
Compare Two Grow a Garden Pets
Type in the filter box to narrow the list, then pick a pet in each box. The table updates at once. A name that appears twice, such as Butterfly or Stork, shows its rarity next to the name.
| Field | Mimic Octopus | Manta Ray |
|---|---|---|
| Rarity | Rare | Rare |
| XP per hour | 850▲ Higher | 810 |
| Ability | Shape Shift (+22%) | Wing Glide (+20%) |
| How to get it | Hatch from Rare Egg | Hatch from Rare Egg |
| Trade value range | 1,870 to 2,530 Sheckles▲ Higher | 1,700 to 2,300 Sheckles |
Mimic Octopus lists 4.9% more XP per hour than Manta Ray (850 against 810).
Mimic Octopus has the higher trade value range midpoint, 10.0% above Manta Ray.
Higher means a larger number in the GAGdata pet database. It does not mean a better pet for every goal.
Example: Mimic Octopus vs Manta Ray
Mimic Octopus and Manta Ray are both Rare pets in the database. Mimic Octopus lists 850 XP per hour and Manta Ray lists 810, a gap of 4.9%. The trade value range is 1,870 to 2,530 Sheckles for Mimic Octopus and 1,700 to 2,300 for Manta Ray.
The abilities are Shape Shift (+22%) and Wing Glide (+20%). A higher number is not a verdict. Pick the pet whose ability matches your goal, then use the numbers to break a tie.

How to Compare Two Pets
- Pick the first pet. Type part of a pet name in the filter box for Pet A, then choose the pet from the list. The rarity is shown next to each name.
- Pick the second pet. Do the same for Pet B. You can compare pets of different rarities.
- Read the table. Read rarity, XP per hour, ability, how to get each pet and trade value range. The higher number is marked when both pets have a value.
- Check PENDING cells. A PENDING cell means the database has no confirmed value. Do not treat it as zero.
- Look up the detail. Open the Pet Values, Hatching Guide or Pet Abilities page for dated values, egg tables and ability detail.
What the Pet Comparison Tool Does Not Cover
The tool compares database fields. It leaves out four things on purpose, and each has its own page.
- Size tiers. Normal, Huge, Titanic and Godly lines stay out because sources conflict and the unit is not confirmed. The Pet Sizes Guide covers the tiers. To check a size class now, use the Pet Weight Calculator.
- Hatch chances and eggs. The Hatching Guide lists the egg drop tables.
- Ranking all pets. The Pet Tier List and Best Pets guide rank pets by use.
- Full ability detail. The Pet Abilities guide explains what abilities do.
Pet Comparison Data Status: Reported, Estimate and PENDING
| Item | Status | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Rarity, ability and source text | Reported | Read from the GAGdata pet database. Not re-tested in game for this page. |
| XP per hour | Reported | Present for 334 entries. 25 entries hold 0 and show PENDING. |
| Trade value range | Estimate | Community market estimates. 34 entries have no full range and show PENDING or the sourced base and Huge figures. |
| Huge, Titanic and Godly thresholds | ⚠️ PENDING | Left out. The unit (XP or kilograms) is not confirmed and sources conflict on the Titanic line. |
| Hatch chances | ⚠️ PENDING | Stored for only 22 entries and not on one scale. Use the Hatching Guide. |
| Size value multiplier | ⚠️ PENDING | No confirmed figure exists, so the tool shows none. |
