Hatching the New Dango Penguins in Adopt Me: A Player’s Gu

[Ylvakeon]

If you’ve been playing Adopt Me recently, you’ve probably heard the buzz about the new Dango penguins. These adorable little creatures are only available from the new crystal eggs, and as many of us have discovered, getting one is no easy feat. The chance of hatching a legendary Dango penguin is only 5.9%, which makes it one of the rarer pets in the game. But don’t worry—after spending some time opening these eggs, I’ve gathered a few insights and tips that might help improve your chances, or at least make the process a little less frustrating.

Understanding Crystal Eggs and Pet Rarities

Crystal eggs are a relatively new addition to Adopt Me, and they come with a wide range of potential pets. These pets are divided into rarities: common, uncommon, rare, ultra rare, and legendary. In my recent session with a friend, we opened dozens of these eggs, and the results were all over the place. Some eggs yielded ultra rares like water opossums, while others gave us legendaries like the dragonfly or alicorn.

It’s important to note that even though legendary pets are exciting, they might not be the Dango penguins you’re hoping for. I’ve seen many players get distracted by the thrill of opening multiple legendaries, only to miss the one they really want. Patience is key here, as is understanding that random luck can swing wildly in a short period of time.

Tips for Boosting Your Chances

While there’s no guaranteed method to get a Dango penguin, a few strategies can slightly improve your odds or at least make the experience more enjoyable:

Open Eggs with Friends: As I discovered during my play session, opening eggs with a buddy can be more fun and keeps morale high, especially when the random results start getting disappointing. Sharing reactions and small victories helps keep the grind enjoyable.

Try Different Locations: Believe it or not, the spot where you hatch your egg might influence your “luck perception.” My friend suggested hatching eggs in the ice cream shop to change the vibe, and while it didn’t magically guarantee the penguin, it felt like it helped reset our streak of less desirable pets.

Manage Your Inventory: Keep an eye on what pets you have equipped. There’s some anecdotal belief among players that certain pets might influence your luck, though this is mostly for fun. In any case, swapping out older legendaries can help you focus on the eggs you’re opening.

If you’re looking to skip the grind entirely, many players also choose to buy Adopt Me pets from trusted platforms. While I personally enjoy the thrill of hatching, I understand that some players want specific pets immediately, especially those with limited availability like the Dango penguins.

Using Robux to Access Pets

For those with Robux to spare, the crystal eggs can also be purchased directly, making it faster to try your luck. This method—essentially buying the chance to hatch new pets—can save time, though it doesn’t guarantee success. If you decide to go this route, be sure to check reliable sources, as there are many marketplaces that sell in-game items. Many players use U4GM for safe transactions, which can be helpful if you don’t want to waste Robux on repeated unsuccessful hatches. Just remember to manage expectations—even when spending Robux, legendary pets remain rare.

Lessons from a Hatch Marathon

During my latest hatching marathon, the highs and lows of egg opening were intense. We started strong, getting legendaries on the first few eggs, only to have luck turn against us with commons and uncommons shortly afterward. By the end, despite opening dozens of eggs, we still hadn’t secured a Dango penguin.

One thing became clear: the thrill isn’t just in the end goal. It’s about discovering new pets, strategizing, and sharing the experience with friends. Whether you eventually hatch the penguin you want or not, the journey itself can be rewarding. A mix of patience, timing, and a little bit of luck is the best recipe for success in Adopt Me.


Getting a Dango penguin in Adopt Me is challenging, but not impossible. Understand the rarity system, experiment with locations, and consider opening eggs with friends for a more enjoyable experience. If you’re willing to spend Robux, that’s another option—but always approach it with realistic expectations. Most importantly, remember that the fun comes from the journey, not just the destination.
