Pet mutations

Big and Huge Hedgehog in GAG2

Hedgehog can rarely spawn with a pet mutation. Grow a Garden 2 has two pet mutations -- Big Hedgehog and Huge Hedgehog -- a rare appearance change that boosts the pet's effect. The Big mutation roughly doubles a pet's passive boost (for example a normal Bunny gives +5 speed, a Big Bunny +10), and Huge is even rarer. The exact spawn odds are very low and unconfirmed, and the exact Huge Hedgehogvalues are TBA. See all pet mutations for the full mechanic.
