Introduced during the Trading expansion, the Gourmet egg presents gardeners with opportunities to obtain unique companions through culinary challenges. Similar to the Oasis Egg mechanics, acquiring desired pets involves both event participation and favorable RNG outcomes – potentially rewarding players with rare creatures like the coveted French Fry Ferret.
Gourmet Egg Acquisition Method
Players can secure this special egg exclusively through the ongoing Cooking event by delivering prepared dishes to Chris P. Bacon. Success depends on random chance when submitting meals, with no guaranteed drop mechanism. The incubation period lasts approximately four hours and ten minutes before revealing its contents.
