Duckling (Steal An Egg)

Duckling is tied to the Duckling Egg from the Lake area. Steal that egg from its spawn on the Lake route, carry it back to your base, and hatch it. The hatched result is decided by the game, and no verified source publishes a probability table for this egg.

Two habits make the attempt safer. First, measure the full pick-up-and-return route before you commit, because the return leg is where most runs are lost. Second, keep a margin above your measured time so a slower server or a contested spawn does not cost you the egg. Neither habit changes the odds. They only make the attempt repeatable.

Duckling sits in the Common band, the entry tier you meet in the first areas. The band describes the recorded rarity label only. It is not a probability, and it does not tell you how many attempts a hatch will take.

Rarity is still useful as a filter. It shows which area you should be running and roughly how far into progression the pet belongs. What it cannot do is replace a Money/s comparison, because two pets in the same band can still earn very different amounts.

The recorded Money/s value for Duckling is $4/s, and the recorded reward is +2.2k Speed / $400. Use the Money/s value as the first comparison field, then check the reward to see whether the pet also advances your Speed.

Income and reward values can change between game updates. Re-check the pet in your own session after a new version before you build a route around it.

Inside the Lake area, Duckling ranks 7th of the 8 ranked Lake records by recorded Money/s, behind Catfish ($12/s) and ahead of Frog ($3/s).

Duckling sits in the Common tier, which holds 5 records across 3 areas. The highest recorded Money/s in that tier is Jerboa at $6/s.
