How to Get Primal Eggs in Grow a Garden – Dino Pets, Crafting & Tips

Alright, fellow gardener-slash-dino-enthusiast — you've heard whispers in the compost pile about these mythical things called Primal Eggs, and now you're curious. Or maybe you saw someone flexing their shiny Spinosaurus and thought, “How the heck do I get one of those?”

Either way, you're in the right patch of soil.

🥚 What Even Is a Primal Egg?

If you’ve been around Grow a Garden for a bit, you’ve probably seen pets running around doing all sorts of helpful things. Well, the game decided to crank it up to Jurassic — literally.

The Primal Egg is a special kind of pet egg that hatches into a dinosaur. Not just any dino, mind you. We're talkin’ six unique prehistoric powerhouses, each with their own weird (and sometimes slightly unhinged) abilities.

🎯 How to Get a Primal Egg (The Long, Slightly Plant-Scented Journey)

Getting a Primal Egg isn't just about finding it lying around in your garden like a rogue tomato. Here's what you gotta do:

1. Talk to Barry (yes, he’s still hanging around).
2. Upgrade the DNA Machine — Step one costs 40 KG of Prehistoric Plants. Easy-ish.
3. Once that’s done, you’ve got a chance of scoring a Primal Egg when you donate your non-dino pets to Graham (the pet guy).
4. But wait, there’s more! Keep feeding Barry plants until you’ve coughed up 280 KG total — this unlocks craftable Primal Eggs.
5. Then head to the prehistoric crafting table and combine:
   • 1 Dinosaur Egg
   • 1 Bone Blossom
   • 5,500,000 Sheckles (yes, millions)

Boom. Dino magic in progress. Takes about 30 minutes to cook, so maybe go water your crops while you wait.

🐣 So… What’s Inside These Things?

Ah, the juicy part. Here's what your Primal Egg might hatch into — assuming the RNG gods are smiling on you:

Pet Image	Pet Name	Rarity	Odds	What It Actually Does
	Parasaurolophus	Legendary	35%	Every ~80s, it zooms to the cosmetic crate with the longest timer and slashes it by ~80s. There’s a ~25% chance it'll double that cut. Fast & flashy.
	Iguanodon	Legendary	32.5%	All your dino pets get a ~0.5 XP/sec bonus. Nothing dramatic — just steady XP drip. Chill and efficient.
	Pachycephalosaurus	Legendary	28%	Gives a ~7% chance to duplicate whatever you're crafting. Basically the “Buy 1, Get 1 Free” champ.
	Dilophosaurus	Mythical	3%	Every ~13 minutes, it spits venom (no kidding). That venom spreads to ~3.5 random pets, speeding up cooldowns or giving ~600 XP.
	Ankylosaurus	Mythical	1%	If someone steals your fruit, there's a ~25% chance you still get it too. Petty? Maybe. Effective? Definitely.
	Spinosaurus	Divine	0.5%	Every ~20 minutes, it gobbles up a mutation from ~3 fruits and spreads it to another. Loves your favorited fruits. Pure chaos. Beautiful chaos.

Yep — these dinos aren’t just cute. They’re loaded with perks. That Spinosaurus, for example? It’s like a mad scientist with a megaphone screaming mutations across your orchard.

🧠 Which One’s the Best?

Trick question. It depends on what you’re into:

• Want more crafting goodies? Go with Pachycephalosaurus.
• All about getting your fruit to mutate like crazy? Spinosaurus is your guy.
• Need that crate opened yesterday? Parasaurolophus is your speedster.

There's no one-size-fits-all dino. Pick your playstyle, then pick your favorite fossil friend.

💬 Quick FAQs

❓ How do I unlock Primal Eggs again?

❓ What's the crafting recipe again?

Dino Egg + Bone Blossom + 5.5 million Sheckles. The Sheckle sting is real.

❓ Are Primal Eggs even worth it?

Absolutely. Between the duplication, XP boosts, cooldown skips, and mutation spreads — it’s like unlocking prehistoric cheat codes.
