Scarecrow

Briefly prevents an affected player from stealing.

Scarecrow pet

Scarecrow briefly prevents an affected player from stealing. Its jumpscare is visually dramatic, but the useful mechanic is a short prevention window rather than a permanent barrier around your plot.

How to get Scarecrow

Historically part of the Exclusive Harvest Egg. Inspect the current store or retained egg inventory for present availability.

How the ability works

The reported lock is 1 second Normal, 2 Big and 3 Mega. Rainbow Normal is 1.25 seconds; Big Rainbow 2.5; Mega Rainbow remains at the reported 3-second cap.

A screen jumpscare is described alongside the lock. That visual is not evidence that stolen fruit is automatically recovered.

When is Scarecrow worth equipping?

Use that window as time to react. If the item has already been taken, compare a recovery pet instead, because preventing the next steal and forcing an existing stolen item to drop are different jobs.

The strongest reported duration is capped at three seconds. The trigger still needs clarification, so neither multiple activations nor a Rainbow upgrade should be assumed to create continuous protection.

  • Expect a brief reaction window, not continuous invulnerability for your garden.
  • Mega already reaches the reported lock cap; do not assume Rainbow increases that particular duration further.

Trading status

Current player-to-player transfer availability has not been independently verified for this pet. No trading value is used as an in-game purchase price.
