Money Making Guide — Pet Income, Offline Earnings & Upgrades

Pets are the money engine of Steal An Egg: every hatched pet earns passively, income scales hard with rarity and size, and it keeps flowing while you’re offline. Here’s how to compound it.

How pet income works

  • Every hatched pet generates income per second ($/s).
  • Rarity drives income tiers — community trading posts show the scale: mid-tier pets around hundreds of millions $/s, top Eternal and Secret variants in the billions.
  • Size matters — egg weight appears to set pet size, and bigger pets earn more. A Golden Ice Dragon with 1.9M+ kg weight was offered at 4B $/s.
  • Variants stack value — Golden and Titan variants trade at large premiums over base versions.

The exact income formulas are not officially published; the numbers above are community trading observations from the official Discord (Aug 2026).

The offline advantage

Two offline mechanics make Steal An Egg unusually friendly to casual play:

  1. Eggs keep hatching while you’re logged out (official game description).
  2. Pets keep earning while you’re offline.

Practical routine: fill your pen with your best steals before logging off; collect and re-invest in the morning.

Where to invest

Priority order for most players:

  1. Treadmill upgrades — Speed gates biomes, and biomes gate egg quality. Compounding.
  2. Base upgrades — bigger pen, more eggs, more parallel hatches.
  3. More pets — income compounds with pen size.
  4. X2 MONEY! gamepass (399 Robux) — straight 2x income multiplier if you’re spending. See the gamepasses page for the official wording and caveats.

Farming routine that works

  1. Log in, collect overnight income, hatch overnight eggs.
  2. Check the rare egg timer — be near the spawn for the five-minute windows.
  3. Raid one or two player bases if their owners are training (see how to steal).
  4. Spend a training block on the treadmill.
  5. Refill the pen before logging out.

Money milestones (rough community-placed values)

Milestone Rough scale
First Forest pen Thousands $/s
Established mid-game pen Hundreds of millions $/s
Top Eternal/Secret collection Billions $/s

These are trading-channel observations, not official rates — the game does not publish income tables.
