All standard potions are available as drops that players receive randomly for completing Habits, Dailies, and To-Dos once they attain level 3. Players can also purchase hatching potions in the Market for gems, or sell them for gold. Some quests also offer hatching potions as rewards. The potions range in value from Base, which hatches a normal pet and sells for 2 gold points, to Golden, which hatches a cheerful golden-colored pet and sells for 5 gold points.
Magic Hatching Potions are special hatching potions that are available during Grand Galas or other recurring community events, or as prizes for logging into Habitica. Wacky Hatching Potions are a special subsection of magic hatching potions that are available during Grand Galas or Community events.
Drop Probability 
Edit
When a potion drops, the type of potion is determined randomly. Different types have different drop probabilities:
- 40% chance of receiving a Base, Desert, or White potion
- 30% chance of receiving a Red, Shade, or Skeleton potion
- 23.33% chance of receiving a Cotton Candy Blue, Cotton Candy Pink, or Zombie potion
- 6.67% chance of receiving a Golden potion
Note that due to the random nature of drops, individual users may receive certain potions at higher or lower rates than
Under the Inventory tab, you will see the potions you currently own. Click on a potion to use it. Once clicked, any eggs that you can hatch with that potion will be highlighted with a green circle. Click on a highlighted egg to use the potion; this will bring up a prompt confirming that you would like to hatch the egg using said potion.
If an egg is not highlighted, that means that you already have a pet of that type that was hatched with the potion you have selected. (For example, if you already have a red wolf, clicking on a red hatching potion will not highlight any wolf eggs in your inventory.) Should you attempt to use the potion to hatch an unhighlighted egg anyway, you will receive an error, and will not lose the egg or potion. However, once you have upgraded a pet to a mount, you may hatch a second pet of that type to replace it, enabling you to have a pet and mount of the same species and color at once.

Wacky Hatching PotionsEdit
Wacky Hatching Potions are similar to Seasonal Edition magic hatching potions in that they are available during certain Grand Galas or other recurring community events. They change a pet's overall appearance as opposed to only changing their color or physical attributes. There is currently only one kind of wacky hatching potion, the garden potion.
