French Fry Ferret Grow a Garden Guide – How to Get, Passive Ability, and More

With the update on August 2nd, 2025, Grow a Garden added several exciting new food-themed pets. One of the most powerful and unique among them is the French Fry Ferret. This rare pet comes with an ability that directly boosts your other pets’ progress, making it incredibly valuable for long-term growth.

Here’s everything you need to know about the French Fry Ferret, including how to get it, what it does, and why it’s such a game-changer. Also check out how well French Fry Ferret is in our Grow a garden tier list.

How to Get the French Fry Ferret

The French Fry Ferret was available during the Cooking Event and could be hatched from a Gourmet Egg with a 0.5% chance. That made it very hard to get — and now, unfortunately, it’s no longer obtainable.

Players who managed to grab one during the event hold a very rare pet that’s not just limited edition, but also highly useful. If you missed the event, there’s no confirmed way to get the pet again, although future reruns or trading systems might give another chance.

Passive Ability – Friendly Frier

The French Fry Ferret isn’t just rare, it’s also practical. Its passive ability gives your other pets a significant advantage:

• Friendly Frier: Every 20 to 60 minutes, it increases the level of a random pet by 1.
• This cannot be mimicked by other pets or refreshed using any tricks — making it a truly unique boost in your team lineup.

This makes it a perfect companion in your garden if you’re raising a variety of pets and want extra help leveling them passively.

The French Fry Ferret stands out as a rare pet that offers practical benefits beyond cosmetics. Its ability to level up your pets without effort is extremely useful — especially in the mid-to-late game when level grinding slows down.

If you were lucky enough to hatch one from the Gourmet Egg, you’ve got a valuable addition to your pet team. For everyone else, stay on the lookout for any future events or rerun opportunities that might bring this helpful ferret back in Grow a garden.
