Can Chick Peck drop rare crop seeds?

Rare seed drops are possible but low probability at base weight. Aging Chick past 50 and applying Golden pet mutation noticeably widens the loot table toward higher-tier seeds.

Should I place Chick next to specific crops?

No — Peck is not crop-adjacent. Chick placement only matters for visual organization; the ability triggers globally within your garden instance.

Grow a Garden Chick

Peck turns idle garden time into a low-key seed lottery — Chick is the common you keep running in the background while you focus on selling crops.

Chick weight progression

Chick hatches at 0.6 kg and grows with the formula W = (hatch ÷ 11) × (age + 10). The table below projects its weight at each age milestone so you can plan trade timing and weight targets.

Chick weight by age
Age	Projected weight
Age 1	0.60 kg
Age 25	1.91 kg
Age 50	3.27 kg
Age 75	4.64 kg
Age 100	6.00 kg
Age 125	7.36 kg

Playstyle

Chick rewards passive play. Place it near your compost or seed storage area and let Peck proc throughout the session. The ability does not require adjacent crops, so Chick is flexible on placement unlike Bunny or Duckling. Pair with Squirrel later if you want two seed-income streams.

Weight & trading

Hatching at 0.6 kg puts Chick in the lighter end of commons. Lower hatch weight means slower ability scaling per age level compared to Puppy at 1.0 kg, but Peck's seed drops are RNG-based so weight mainly affects proc frequency, not seed tier.

Peck rolls a small chance each cycle to grant bonus seeds — typically lower-tier varieties useful for filling gaps in your crop rotation. The proc rate climbs with pet age and weight classification. Golden or Rainbow pet mutations improve both frequency and the rarity band of seeds dropped.

Seed economy role

Early accounts bleed sheckles buying seeds from the shop. Chick Peck reduces that tax by drip-feeding free seeds during normal farming. One lucky Peck streak can fund an entire row of mid-tier crops without touching your wallet.

Chick does not accelerate growth or mutations, so treat it as an economic supplement pet. Run Bunny or Mouse on your main plot and Chick anywhere in the garden — Peck range is garden-wide once the pet reaches juvenile age.

Hatch priority among commons

When choosing which common to age first, Chick loses to Bunny for pure crop throughput but beats Snail and Worm for tangible daily returns. Hamster Hoard stores sheckles passively while Chick generates inventory — prefer Chick if your bottleneck is seed variety, Hamster if you already have seeds covered.

Uncommon upgrades like Squirrel Stash supersede Peck entirely. Until then, an age-30 Chick still pays for its food cost in seed value over a typical play session.
