Where it comes from

It hatches from a Mossy egg in your island's hatchery (18 hours). The egg drops from monsters in The Gloam, The Lantern Mire, on about 0.05% of kills. Nestor the Egg Man in the Yard trades one for 100 sulky sporecap + 100 button cap. The Store sells it too. Two of them bred in your pen make a Greater one.

Wear, stow and name it in the Equipment tab. One at a time; the bonus stops the moment you stow it.
