How to Get the Diamond Panther
The Diamond Panther can be acquired from the Gem Egg in Grow a Garden, but getting your hands on one requires patience and resources. Here’s the breakdown:
Step 1: Craft the Gem Egg Visit the Pet Workbench at the center of Smithing Island. You’ll need approximately 50 million Sheckles worth of materials including Common Egg, Coal, Garden Ingot, and crafting fees.

Step 2: Hatch Multiple Eggs Like most Divine-rarity critters, it has a low 0.5% hatch chance, similar to the Ruby Squid. This makes the Diamond Panther the second-rarest pet in the current event. Realistically, expect to hatch 50+ Gem Eggs for a decent shot at this beauty.
Step 3: Time Your Attempts Log in during Admin Abuse Hours (starting at 9:00 AM EST) for rare materials and better mutation chances. The official Roblox Grow a Garden experience runs the Smithing Event for 7 days, so plan accordingly.
Understanding the 12 Carats Ability
What makes the Diamond Panther special isn’t just its stunning diamond body—it’s the game-changing ability. When you harvest a fruit with 12 or more Mutations, the Diamond Panther has a small chance of increasing a fellow Pet’s age by one.
Ability Breakdown:
- Triggers only on fruits with 12+ mutations
- 4-8% chance to age up a random pet by 1 level
- Works alongside your normal harvesting
- No cooldown period
The catch? The panther’s ability is chance-based; there is no guarantee that it will enhance a critter’s age. This makes it situational but incredibly valuable for players with high-mutation gardens.
Maximizing Your Success Rate
Want to actually use this Divine pet effectively? Focus on mutations. The Diamond Panther only activates when harvesting highly mutated crops—those with 12 or more mutations stacked.
Pro Tips:
- Plant crops known for easy mutations like Sunflower or Yarrow
- Participate in weather events like Black Hole, Disco, and Junkbot Raid that naturally mutate crops
- Check our Roblox Grow a Garden mutations guide for detailed strategies
- Use the Pet Mutation Machine to enhance your Diamond Panther further
The French Fry Ferret was previously the only pet with age-boosting capabilities, making the Diamond Panther only the second in the game’s history with this power.

Is It Worth the Investment?
Let’s be honest—with a 0.5% hatch rate and 50 million Sheckles per egg attempt, the Diamond Panther is expensive. However, for serious collectors and players focusing on pet progression systems, it’s absolutely worth it.
The new Pet Age Break Machine (unlocked at Level 100+) synergizes perfectly with the Diamond Panther. You can merge duplicate pets and combine their levels, making every age-up from the Diamond Panther significantly more valuable.
Trading Market: Current estimates place the Diamond Panther’s trading value at approximately 25 million Sheckles. Expect this to fluctuate as the event progresses and more players acquire them.
Other Gem Egg Pets to Know
The Gem Egg contains six pets total, each with unique abilities:
- Ruby Squid (0.5%) – Copies other pets’ abilities without cooldown
- Sapphire Macaw (8.25%) – Applies Crystalized mutation
- Emerald Snake (14%) – Converts fruits to gem-themed cosmetics
- Amethyst Beetle (32%) – Battles other players’ Beetles for rewards
- Topaz Snail (45%) – Grants Cleansing Pet Shards on Lucky Harvests
While hunting for the Diamond Panther, you’ll likely hatch several of these companions. The Ruby Squid shares the same ultra-rare drop rate and is equally valuable for collectors.
FAQs
Q: Can I trade for a Diamond Panther instead of hatching one?
A: Absolutely! The Diamond Panther is tradeable, with current market values around 25 million Sheckles. Trading might actually be more cost-effective than attempting 100+ egg hatches. Join active Grow a Garden trading communities to find sellers, and always verify trades carefully to avoid scams.
Q: Does the Diamond Panther work with all crop types?
A: Yes, but only when those crops have 12 or more mutations. The ability doesn’t discriminate between plant types—Sunflowers, Zucchini, Luna Stems, or any other crop will trigger the 12 Carats ability as long as they meet the 12-mutation threshold when harvested.
