How feeding and combining work

- Feeding raises an animal's luck stat.
- Combining pairs two animals to produce a brand-new pet.
- Luck influence higher luck in both parents improves the outcome.

Earning money while you are offline
TipsOne of the biggest advantages in this game is that your animals keep earning money even when you are not logged in. You collect everything in one go the next time you open the game.
- Animals you have raised generate money while the game is closed.
- Log in regularly to collect what has built up.
- Catching duplicates of the same animal adds more earners to your pen.
- Every new animal you breed and keep also contributes to your offline total.
- Make sure your pen is not full, because a full pen cannot hold new animals.
Hunting secret and rare animals
CheckSecret animals do not appear by chance alone. You need parents with strong luck scores, and you need to keep experimenting. If the same pair has not produced anything new after several tries, switch to a different combination.
- Feed both parents to raise their luck before combining.
- Try the same pair multiple times before writing it off.
- Switch to a completely different pair if nothing rare has appeared.
- Use any rare animal you hatch as a parent in future combinations.

Common questions
FAQWhy am I having trouble catching animals?
First confirm that your lasso is equipped — you cannot catch anything without it. Animals move around the island, so approach carefully and use the lasso when you are close enough.
Why are no new pets appearing when I combine?
Low luck is the most common reason — make sure you have been feeding both animals regularly before you try to combine them. Also check that your pen has open space, because a full pen cannot hold a newly produced animal.
How do I find secret animals?
Keep the luck of both parent animals as high as possible by feeding them consistently. Try many different pairs rather than repeating the same combination, and use any rare animal you have already discovered as a parent to open up new possibilities.
Does it matter how many animals I have in my pen?
Yes — more raised animals means more offline income building up while you are away.
