Backflip for Animals! How to Get Pets – Pet Collection Guide

You get pets in Backflip for Animals! by stealing eggs from guardians and hatching them at your base. Backflipping is how you reach the biomes where guardians stand, and every hatched egg becomes a collected pet — the game itself notes that some hatch mutated.

The pet acquisition loop

The experience's official How-to-Play list lays the loop out in order. The first three steps are the acquisition path; the last three are what the game places after hatching:

Redeem steps

• 🤸 Backflip to reach new biomes

  Acquisition step — backflipping is how you reach the biomes where guardians hold eggs.

• 🥚 Steal eggs from guardians

  Acquisition step — guardians are the ones holding the eggs you carry home.

• 🐣 Hatch eggs to collect rare pets, some are mutated

  Acquisition step — hatching converts the stolen egg into a collected pet, and some come out mutated.

• 💵 Earn money from your OP pets
• 🏃 Train on the treadmill to gain Speed
• ⬆️ Upgrade your treadmill and base

Egg tiers and the collection goal

A listing description for the experience fills in collection details the short How-to-Play list leaves out. Eggs are explicitly tiered — the listing reads "Steal Common, Rare, Epic, Legendary & Mythic Eggs" — and stolen eggs must make it home before they hatch: "Bring the eggs back to your base", then "Hatch and grow powerful animals".

Progression is tied directly to the collection. The listing frames it as "Reach higher stages to discover even rarer eggs!", with the reward loop "Build your collection and become stronger" and the closing challenge "How high can you backflip, and can you collect them all?" The collection structure that can be documented here is those five named egg tiers plus the higher-stages/rarer-eggs progression — "collect them all" is the game's own framing for that climb.

What the listings can't tell you yet

The listing text doesn't name individual pets, so this page can't publish a pet list or say which pets hatch from which egg tier — the five tiers describe eggs, not pets. Mutation is documented only as "some are mutated", with no rate, trigger, or mechanic given. The listing text also doesn't document any in-game collection tracker or index, so what collection tracking looks like in-game isn't described here.

Wording varies between listing versions

Two versions of the game's listing describe the same loop with different words. The official Roblox How-to-Play list says "Backflip to reach new biomes" and "Hatch eggs to collect rare pets", while the Medal.tv listing says "Reach higher stages to discover even rarer eggs" and "Hatch and grow powerful animals". Both describe the same steal → hatch → collect loop — "biomes" versus "stages" and "pets" versus "animals" read as different listing versions of the experience rather than different mechanics. The experience is newly released and its listing text is already inconsistent, so check the official game page and your in-game progression for the current terms before relying on any detail beyond the loop itself.

Next step in-game: chain backflips until you reach a biome you haven't visited, take an egg from its guardian, and get it home to your base — that's one more pet toward the collection.
