The Sapphire Macaw may not exist in the real world, but inside Grow a Garden, it’s one of the most powerful—and most talked-about—pets of the Smithing Event update. Released in November 2025, this Mythical pet has become a major goal for competitive players looking to improve their harvests and chase the rarest fruit mutations.

Why the Sapphire Macaw Is So Valuable

Pet Profile

  • Name: Sapphire Macaw
  • Rarity: Mythical
  • Ability: Crystalized Mutation
  • Effect: Occasionally mutates a nearby fruit with the exclusive Crystalized Mutation

This passive ability is the reason players are scrambling to obtain it.

Why the Crystalized Mutation Matters

The Crystalized Mutation is one of the strongest farming boosts currently in the game. Fruits affected by it often:

  • Sell for much higher Sheckles, or
  • Unlock special crafting materials required for temporary Smithing Event recipes

For players aiming to climb leaderboard rankings or maximize daily earnings, the Sapphire Macaw can feel like a must-have tool.

How to Get the Sapphire Macaw (November 2025)

During the Smithing Event, the only way to obtain a Sapphire Macaw is by hatching a Gem Egg. Here’s how players are getting their hands on one:

1. Crafting the Gem Egg (Most Reliable Method)

The Gem Egg can be crafted at the Blacksmith’s crafting station, a limited-time feature of the event. This is the method most active players are focusing on.

Gem Egg Crafting Recipe:

Item: Gem Egg

Requires:

  • 1× Common Egg
  • 3× Common Coal
  • 1 Million Sheckles

2. Alternative Ways to Get a Gem Egg

If crafting isn’t your style, there are two more options:

• Treasure Digging

A newly added event mechanic that gives players a very small chance of uncovering Gem Eggs while digging.

• In-Game Shop

For players willing to spend Robux, Gem Eggs can also be purchased directly to speed up the process.
