What Does the Pet Incubator Do in Grow a Garden?
The Pet Incubator levels pets faster. Place a pet inside, fuel it with crops, and it grants about 3× XP while fueled. Friends can interact for an extra boost in some versions. It does not hatch eggs (that is a separate Egg Incubator / hatch flow). Verified September 22, 2026.
