How to Get an Elk in Grow a Garden
The Elk is a pet that’s exclusive to the Skyroot Chest in Grow a Garden. It’s also an Uncommon pet with a 34.5% chance of appearing from this chest. This makes it the most likely pet you’ll get, but it’s still tied with the Crown of Thorns seed.
How to Get a Skyroot Chest
You can get a Skyroot Chest in the following three ways:
You can craft a Skyroot Chest after growing the Beanstalk to reach the Beanstalk crafting table. You’ll need 2 Beanstalk Crops, 1 Sprout Seed Pack, 1 Sprout Egg, and 7,500,000 Sheckles to make one. This recipe takes 30 minutes to complete. You can buy a Skyroot Chest from the Giant after increasing your friendship level with them at least once. It’ll cost 1,500,000 Sheckles to buy from them as long as it’s in stock. You can temporarily buy an Exotic Skyroot Chest from the in-game shop using Robux, but it has slightly different chances than the ones mentioned in the section below.What Does the Elk Do in Grow a Garden?
