As players gear up for the much-anticipated Working Bee update in Grow a Garden, exciting news has emerged: a brand new pet will be available for free. The development team has intricate plans for the Bee event, introducing an array of beneficial pets that can enhance your fruit crops with unique mutations. Previously, these pets could only be obtained through pet eggs, requiring players to devote significant time to grinding. However, the upcoming update promises a change with the introduction of the Cooked Owl pet. This guide outlines the steps you need to follow to secure your very own free Cooked Owl in the game.
How to Obtain the Cooked Owl Pet in Grow a Garden
Much like the previously released Chicken Zombie and Panda pets, the availability of the Cooked Owl is limited and will be accessible for a specific time frame.
To acquire the Cooked Owl, players must log into the game at the moment the Working Bees update goes live. The new pet will be automatically added to your inventory after you experience a cutscene during the update, set to occur on June 14, 2025, at 7:00 AM PST. To ensure your access, be sure to join the game at least 30 minutes ahead of the scheduled release time.
The Concept Behind the Cooked Owl Pet
Why the decision to introduce a Cooked Owl pet? This unusual concept sprouted from an incident involving Jandel, one of the game’s lead developers, who organized weather events in Grow a Garden before the Bee update. During one particular night event, he aimed to give players another opportunity to procure items from the Twilight Shop.
Unexpectedly, players found the Owl in the Twilight Shop to be a source of disappointment, as it offered subpar items during two consecutive events. Following a wave of player dissatisfaction, Jandel humorously vowed to “cook”the meddling bird as a form of retribution for its poor stock.
To the surprise of many, he was true to his word. During the Friendship update, players received a cosmetic item featuring a Cooked Owl displayed on a barbeque grill. While this was amusing, it fell short of player expectations, as many hoped for a new pet.
In response to the mix-up, Jandel quickly addressed the community through a TikTok video, apologizing and reiterating his promise to deliver a genuine free Cooked Owl pet with the subsequent update. The developer is set to fulfill that commitment.
Passive Skill of the Grow a Garden Cooked Owl
Currently, there is limited information about the passive abilities of the Cooked Owl pet. However, a recently leaked image shared on the official Grow a Garden Discord server provides a glimpse of this unique creature. The image features a Cooked Owl with smoke wafting from its head, a distinctly tanned body, and bones adorning its feet.
As of now, that’s all the information available regarding the Cooked Owl pet. Remember to log into the game 20-30 minutes ahead of the update. This is crucial, as Roblox servers often experience heavy lag or crashes due to the influx of players during such events, and you may also gain access to exclusive admin events prior to the update.
