The Moth is a legendary support pet in Grow a Garden known for its unique ability to automate pet hunger management. Introduced during the Friendship update, the Moth can’t be bought from regular shops, making it a valuable and rare companion for players who want to optimize their farming strategy. This guide covers how to get the Moth, its Silk Song trait, egg crafting details, and why it’s one of the most practical legendary pets in the game.
What is the Moth in Grow a Garden?
The Moth is a Legendary-tier pet that serves as a passive hunger restorer for your garden’s pet team. It’s not only rare but also designed for long-term farming efficiency. It features a pale, soft body, black eyes, and translucent wings, fitting its name and supportive role perfectly. The Moth does not require frequent feeding thanks to its 25,000 hunger capacity, and more importantly, it helps manage other pets’ needs automatically.
Unlike typical pets that increase crop value or yield, the Moth focuses on sustainability—ensuring your high-maintenance pets remain active by recharging their hunger at regular intervals.
How to Get Moth in Grow a Garden
You can only obtain the Moth from an Anti Bee Egg, a special egg that cannot be bought from the regular Pet Egg Shop. Instead, there are two ways to get this egg:
-
Crafting through Bizzy Bear Recipes
Anti Bee Eggs are a reward from completing specific Bizzy Bear recipes. These recipes typically involve mixing Honey with Pollinated or HoneyGlazed crops. Some known ingredients include:-
Pollinated Strawberries
-
HoneyGlazed Nectarines
-
Pollinated Roses
-
HoneyGlazed Beanstalks
Completing these recipes may yield one Anti Bee Egg depending on the recipe’s reward pool.
-
-
Robux Purchase Option
If you prefer a faster method, the Anti Bee Egg is also available for 149 Robux.
Once you acquire an Anti Bee Egg, hatching it gives you a 13.75% chance of getting a Moth. Other outcomes from the egg include different themed pets from the same update, but none offer the same hunger support ability.
Moth Trait: What is Silk Song?
The Moth’s signature trait is Silk Song, an automated support skill that makes it incredibly useful in any pet team. Every 13 minutes, Silk Song:
-
Fully restores the hunger of one random pet in your garden.
This effect happens passively—you don’t need to trigger it manually or equip the Moth as an active pet. It works even when the Moth is simply present in your team.
The main benefit of this skill is reducing the burden of manually feeding your most important pets. This allows you to:
-
Extend uptime of profit-generating pets like HoneyGlazed or Gold-enhancing pets.
-
Run longer AFK sessions without worry.
-
Focus on farming without constant inventory management.
Because it activates regardless of the pet’s hunger level, you might not see the effect instantly, but over time, Silk Song ensures that one pet is always ready to work at full capacity.
Why the Moth is a Game-Changing Pet
The Moth may not directly multiply crop value, but its support value is unmatched for players with multiple high-efficiency pets. Here’s why it’s so effective:
-
Reduces manual care: No more checking hunger bars constantly.
-
Pairs well with expensive pets: Especially useful with pets that boost income but have low hunger limits.
-
Perfect for AFK strategies: You can AFK longer with fewer interruptions due to hunger.
It fits seamlessly into Honey Pet builds and endgame team setups where time and sustainability are just as valuable as direct profit boosts.
Crafting Honey Pets and Related Synergies
The Moth fits well in teams that rely on crafted Honey pets like:
-
Pollinated Bee
-
HoneyGlazed Petals
-
Golden Nectar pets
Since these pets often require a lot of attention and feeding to keep running, Moth becomes the glue that holds these builds together. Its Silk Song reduces the micro-management, making your setup smoother and more passive-friendly.
Final Thoughts
The Moth in Grow a Garden is more than just another Legendary pet—it’s a support system for your entire team. With its Silk Song trait, high hunger capacity, and automation of care, it significantly improves efficiency and uptime for your farm. While the chance to hatch it from the Anti Bee Egg is low, the payoff is well worth the effort, especially for players focused on long-term productivity.
Whether you’re aiming for efficient income through HoneyGlazed strategies or just tired of micromanaging your pets’ hunger, the Moth offers a smart and sustainable solution for any farming setup.
