The 4-passive stacking rule
Each parent contributes up to four passives to the pool. Children roll 1-4 passives from that combined pool, weighted by parent count.
Filter parents with Musclehead + Ferocious first
Farm the two most common combat passives on cheap parents (Lamball, Cattiva) before chasing Legend.
Cake efficiency
One Cake per breed cycle — batch 20 Red Berry Cakes before starting a passive chain so you don't stall the ranch.
