How to Get Mutations on Pets in Jump for Animals
There are two ways to get pets with mutations in Jump for Animals: Mutation Machine and Mutated Eggs. The Mutation Machine can add the Gold mutation, and Mutated Eggs will hatch pets with the Gold and Purple Aurora mutations.
Read on to learn more about both of these systems.
How to Use the Mutation Machine in Jump for Animals
The Mutation Machine in Jump for Animals can be found in the Pen area, right next to the Coils Shop. You can use this machine to get pets with the Gold mutation. Here’s how to use the Mutation Machine in Jump for Animals:
- Add five of the same pets to your inventory.
- Go towards the Mutation Machine.
- Add the five pets to the machine one after the other.
- The machine will take some time to merge all five pets into one with the Gold mutation.
Once the machine’s timer hits zero, you can claim your Gold pet. This is an extremely useful machine because it not only adds a mutation to your pet but also frees up space in your Pen.
How to Get Mutated Eggs in Jump for Animals
You can get mutated eggs in Jump for Animals during the Purple Aurora Event. This event spawns after the Training Frenzy Event and lasts for 7 minutes. While this event is active, eggs with the Purple Aurora mutation will spawn in all areas of the map.
Collect as many of these mutated eggs as you can while this event is active. Once the event is over, you can start placing them in your pen to hatch them and get mutated pets.
When you hatch a mutated egg, you’ll get a pet that has the Gold mutation as well as the Purple Aurora mutation.
