Most pets in Habitica have food preferences. Feeding a pet its preferred type of food will cause it to grow into a mount more quickly than feeding it a non-preferred type of food.

Mechanics

HabitRPG-Pets-Growth-Bar

These pets have or do not have Food Bars matching their growth status (from left to right: unfed, partially fed, fed to a mount, and re-hatched).

A green food bar appears under a pet that has not already been hatched and grown before. This bar tracks a pet's growth towards becoming a mount.

  • When hatched, a pet starts with 10% of the bar filled.
  • The bar increases by a certain amount each time the pet is fed. Preferred foods fill the Food Bar much faster (10% per item) than non-preferred foods (4% per item).
  • It takes 9 preferred foods or 23 non-preferred foods for a pet to grow into a mount.

Specific Preferred Foods

Each pet that is hatched from a standard potion has a preference for a certain food. As described above, when fed with their preferred food, pets will turn into mounts much faster than with non-preferred food.

Take a look at the colors of the pet and food.

Show/Hide the food preferences table. (SPOILER ALERT!)

The pet's food preference depends on which hatching potion was used on its egg.
