PETS · PASSIVE BOOSTS Build An Ant Empire Pets Guide Pets are companions that add passive boosts to your colony, stacking on top of ant rarities, Mutations and Jelly. This page explains how to get pets, what they do, and which ones are worth chasing as the pet roster is confirmed.

HOW IT WORKS

What Pets Do

Pets grant passive effects that keep working even when you are not actively collecting.

Passive income

Pets can add extra Cash or food generation on top of your ant workforce.

Luck & odds

Some pets boost egg luck or drop chances, feeding back into better ants.

Stacks with everything

Pet effects combine with Mutations, Jelly and rarities for the biggest colony output.

How to Get Pets

The exact sources are being confirmed in-game. Early signs point to pets unlocking from mid-game content and special drops rather than the starting area, which makes them a goal for when your base economy is stable.

Full pet list, drop sources and a pet tier ranking land here once the roster is verified. Until then, treat pets as a late-game multiplier and keep spending on egg luck and egg rolls first.
