Limited and Restricted Pets - The Daily Neopets (2024)

Draik Eggs

One of the more valuable and popular restricted pets - arguably the most popular and valuable - is the Draik. We did a quick run-through of Draiks here, but Draik Eggs come in many different colors, prices, rarities, and can be obtained various ways. They are also considered Gourmet Foods if you need a Draik Egg for that purpose.

Draik Eggs are the only way to hatch a Draik yourself. Other options to obtaining Draiks are adopting, trading, or morphing with a potion. Draiks will never be available on the Create A Pet page, which is what makes them so exclusive.

Here is a list of the various Draik Eggs, with prices, rarities, and alternative ways to obtain them if applicable. All Draik Eggs are available for purchase at Merifoods if you are lucky and fast enough to get one.

Once you actually obtain the Draik Egg, you make your way to the Draik Nest and hatch your egg. Be sure to have an open space for another Neopet, which means have only 3 neopets if you're a regular user and only 4 if you're a Premium user.

Come to me, I shall turn your eggs into beautiful Draiks!

Alternative Ways to Obtain A Draik

As is obvious, Draik eggs can cost a fair amount of neopoints, so for those who cannot quite ut their money where the egg is, there are dailies that give out items that will be of help. The available items are the Pirate Draik Morphing Potion and the Pirate Draik Egg which are both available from either the Forgotten Shore daily. The Pirate Draik Morphing Potion is an available prize when opening a Treasure Chest from the Forgotten Shore.
Note: You can only access the shore if you have obtained all the map pieces.

Krawk Petpets

To obtain a Krawk, you need to first obtain a Krawk Petpet. These unique petpets can be purchased from Tyrannian Petpets rarely.

Once you obtain a Krawk Petpet, you must bring it to the Fungus Caves so that it can eat the Fungus and turn into a fully grown Krawk! How exciting. Now, be sure that the petpet has a good name because it will be your new Krawk's name and you won't want it to be named 1337 would you? Unfortunately, you have no control over the gender, so if you wanted a specific gender you may have to do some finger-crossing.

If the petpet was previously painted prior to visiting the Fungus Caves, that will be the color of the Krawk you receive. Petpets that are zapped into a Krawk cannot be changed into Krawks at the Fungus Cave however, so a lucky zap will not help you obtain a Krawk.

There are many different Krawk petpet colors, all with different rarities and prices. They are compiled here so you know what to look for when buying a petpet to obtain this exclusive pet.

Once you obtain the Krawk petpet that you desire, you bring it to the Fungus Caves and make sure you have an open space for an extra pet, this means bring 3 pets if you're a regular user and 4 pets if you're a Premium user. The lovely fungus will then help you obtain your exclusive new pet!

Yum, Fungus! Now your petpet is a big strong fully grown Krawk!

For those of us who do not have the millions to spend on a Krawk Petpet, there are a few ways to obtain a Krawk via a few Neopets dailies. This is a way to gain that dream pet without spending a neopoint!

The available items are the Pirate Krawk Morphing Potion and the Magical Pirate Krawk Plushie which are both available from either the Forgotten Shore or the Anchor Management dailies.

Are there any other ways of having a limited or restricted pet?

Fortunately, there are other methods to obtaining a rare Neopet. These include morphing potions, transmogrification potions, and plushies. There is also the somewhat useful Mysterious Swirly Potion than could be used as well.

Magical Plushies- If you let a Neopet play with a Magical Plushie, then it will instantly transform into the color and species of the toy. An example of this would be allowing a Blumaroo play with a Magical Green Kiko Plushie so the Blumaroo will become a green Kiko. A Magical Plushie is a one use item, so it will revert into its regular form once is has been played with. These toys look differently than the regular plushie - usually having a faint glow or sparkle around them - so they are easily recognized.

Morphing Potions- Simply put, Morphing Potions do exactly as their name suggests. The name of the potion reflects what your Neopet will look like if it drinks it. A Blue Koi Morphing Potion will transform your pet into a blue Koi, for example. Be advised though, morphing potions may be an expensive decision depending on the species it turns pets into, such as Draiks and Krawks.

Transmogrification Potions- These vile potions work similar to morphing potions. The only drawback is that the only color available to Transmogrification Potions is mutant. Giving a Draik Transmogrification Potion to a pet such as a Buzz would transform it into a mutant Draik. Sometimes Dr. Sloth will hand out Transmogrification Potions in random events.

Mysterious Swirly potion- Able to be caught from the Underwater Fishing cavern, Mysterious Swirling Potions have the ability to randomly turn your Neopet into either a Kiko, Koi, Cybunny, Chomby, Tonu, Poogle, Hissi or Jetsam. The color of the pet that is given the potion will remain the same after coverting into a limited edition pet, unless the color is currently unavailable to the pet. A Tyrannian Moehog, for example, would be unable to turn into a Tyrannian Kiko since that color does not exist for Kiko's yet. In this case, the pet would become a Kiko of a random basic color.

The Pound and Lab Ray also are able to retrieve limited and restricted Neopets, although the chance of them doing so is random and not too often, as all the regular Neopets are retrieved too.

Conclusion

There are many ways to own a limited or restricted Neopet, although some of the methods may become frustrating at times or they are too expensive. Just continue trying and hopefully that special pet will be in possession within no time.
