Learn how to get the Elk Pet in Grow a Garden, its berry-saving ability, drop chances, and where to find the Skyroot Chest.
The Elk is a new Uncommon rarity pet that was added along with many new pets during the Admin Abuse War event in Grow a Garden on August 23, 2025. Players can only obtain it from the Skyroot Chest, which can be crafted, purchased, or obtained through Robux.
The Elk Pet has a passive ability that gives a 2.5% chance for berry fruits to stay after being harvested. This means the berries remain on the plant for another collection instead of disappearing. Rarer berry plants have a lower chance of triggering this effect, but overall it makes the Elk a strong pick for berry farming efficiency.
In this guide, we will tell you how to get this pet, explore its abilities, and find out if it’s worth adding to your collection.
How To get the Elk Pet in Grow a Garden
You can obtain the Elk Pet primarily through the Skyroot Chest. There are multiple ways to get the chest:
- Crafting: At the Beanstalk Event Crafting Station (top of the Beanstalk), you can craft a Skyroot Chest every 30 minutes using:
- 2 Beanstalk Crops
- 1 Sprout Seed Pack
- 1 Sprout Egg
- 7,500,000 Sheckles
- Friendship Shop: After leveling up friendship with Goliath (the giant NPC at the top of the Beanstalk), you can buy a Skyroot Chest for 1.5 million Sheckles.
- Exotic Skyroot Chest: Purchasable from the in-game shop for 199 Robux. This version has slightly different drop chances but guarantees the Elk Pet on your 6th chest.
Elk Pet drop chances
- Normal Skyroot Chest: ~34.5% chance to drop the Elk Pet.
- Exotic Skyroot Chest: ~34% chance, but guaranteed Elk on the 6th chest.
This makes the Elk one of the easier Skyroot pets to obtain.
Why the Elk Pet Is Worth Having
- Saves berry fruits for repeated harvesting.
- Improves overall berry farming efficiency.
- Decent drop chance from the Skyroot Chest.
- Guaranteed drop after 6 Exotic Skyroot Chests.
The Elk Pet is a valuable farming companion for berry collectors in Grow a Garden. With its berry-saving passive and reliable drop chances, it’s one of the most practical pets from the Beanstalk update.
