How to Get Jitterbug in Steal An Egg
The Jitterbug is Update 7's secret pet. You can't steal or hatch it from normal eggs — it only comes from the hidden room behind the Enchanted Tree, and the Mushroom Puzzle is the only door.
Quick Answer
- Step 1: unlock the Enchanted Tree — complete the Grow Your Wisp questline and return the Wisp.
- Step 2: find the portal to the secret room around the tree.
- Step 3: solve the Mushroom Puzzle.
- Reward: the Secret Egg (hatches the Jitterbug) plus the Cricket's Banjo.

Requirements Before You Can Get Jitterbug
- Enchanted Forest access — the biome's reported Speed gate is ~50B.
- Finished Wisp questline — three quests plus returning the Wisp; this is what unseals the Enchanted Tree.
- The secret room portal — once the tree is open, look for the hidden entrance/portal around it leading to the puzzle room.
Player reports vary on exactly where the portal sits relative to the tree — sweep the area behind and around it once you're inside.
The Jitterbug Egg
The room's reward is a Secret Egg that hatches into the Jitterbug — a secret-rarity pet that sits outside the eight regular Enchanted Forest index slots. Current reports treat the egg as a guaranteed puzzle reward, not a drop chance, but launch-week sources are thin on details; if your egg behaves differently, treat the in-game result as the truth.

Cricket's Banjo
The same puzzle also grants the Cricket's Banjo — an equippable guitar-style weapon themed after the biome's cricket. Per current reports you receive it alongside the egg, so one clean puzzle solve covers both secret rewards in the room.
