Jellyneo.net provides Neopets users with game guides, helpful articles, solutions and goodies to guide your Neopets experience. With over 800 pages of quality content, you can't go wrong with Jellyneo! Oct 22, 2012 Just curious how others went about getting it? As I know most of probably forgot all about it when we first joined. So, Ive tried transferring funds to my side account and then once I go to the soup faerie and click for awhile, nothing happens. Ive done it three times now and its kinda frust.

Professor Milton Clodbottle has quite the interesting invention. Using his 'Habitariums,' Neopians could, for several years, raise their own petpeptets (or P3s) and watch them work, grow, and even interact with their friends' Habitariums. Those that took care of them could create quite a money-making machine. Habitariums were discontinued in September 2014, when the Neopets servers moved.

Choosing Your Habitarium

Habitariums came in three different layouts - Seedling Grove, Blossom Meadow, and Puddle Lake. Clicking the images below will give a preview of how the layout looked for a new player. After a layout was selected, players would move on to the official Tutorial, guided by the Professor. He gave tips on how to run your habitairum, and keep your P3s happy and busy.

The Petpetpets and their Professions

Species

Three of the known species of petpetpet could be found in Habitariums - Mootix, Larnikins, and Pinchits. Other than appearance, there were no differences between the species; they would all perform the same tasks based on their job type. Like all bugs, though, these petpetpets only had a short lifespan (if taken care of, they'd live about a week). If players lost all their petpets, the Professor would give them a new Nester to start over with. Players were also able to save their eggs indefinitely, so prolonged breaks were easily possible. Once a P3 died, a gem would appear in the habitarium, and would give XP when clicked; the amount of XP gained would depend on how long the P3 lived.

Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work we go!

Jobs

In addition to species, P3s would be divided up by job classes. Unlike species, this actually did impact their performance. There were three job classes, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Some skills could be performed by multiple job classes; bold text denotes the job class that would perform that skill the best.

• Nesters
  • The only kind that lays eggs
  • Have comparatively low HP
  • Can gather supplies
  • Can fight off invaders
• Workers
  • Can repair buildings
  • Can gather supplies
  • Can fight off invaders
• Soldiers
  • Can fight off invaders
  • Can repair buildings
  • Can go on raids
  • Will seek out and fight invaders automatically

Jobs are not affected by species, and could not be changed. Eggs would identify both the species and the job class of a petpet before they were hatched, so users could avoid having too many of one or another type. If the habitarium was full (maximum number of petpets currently active), an egg would have to be harvested before the job class could be seen (in the inventory).

Your Screen

Another busy day..

Above is a screenshot of a Habitarium. By number, here are the things that you see.

1. This is your level meter. This tells you what level you're at, and how much experience points (XP) you need in order to reach the next level.
2. These bubbles are your options. Click these to zoom in, zoom out, turn the sound on or off, turn the music on or off, open the Habitarium FAQ, or take a photo of your Habitarium.
3. These bubbles are your resources. Hover over each bubble to see how much of that resource you have.
4. This is your magnifying glass. This gives you information about the selected item, and gives you options of things to do with that object.
5. These are your friends. If your Neofriends have Habitariums, they will show up here.
6. The brown bag is your inventory and the blue bag is the Shop. Open your inventory to view your items, and open the Shop to buy more.

Things to Do

Within your Habitarium, there are many things to do to make life better for your little petpetpets. Some of these things may take time to complete, however, so it's recommended that you have another window or tab open while your petpetpets do their work.

Nesting

By placing a Nester petpetpet on a nest, that petpetpet will start to lay an egg. Once the egg is laid, it will need to be incubated for a short period of time. However, after the egg has been cared for properly, you can do a number of things with it. First, you can hatch the egg by clicking the center 'hatch' button located at the bottom of the petpetpet viewer. This will hatch the egg and give you a new member for your Habitarium. However, you might not have enough room for another petpetpet. If this happens, you will be forced to harvest the egg by clicking the 'harvest' button located at the bottom left of your magnifying glass. This simply places the egg in your bag so that you can hatch it later. Finally, if you don't want the egg your petpetpet has laid, you can click the button at the bottom right of your magnifying glass and discard it.

Mama knows best!

Gathering

To buy things from the shop, you need resources. Handily enough, both Workers and Nesters can help you with that. To make your petpetpets gather a specific resource, place them near the resource tile that yields the resource you want. After a bit of scurrying around, your petpetpets will start to gather that resource. Not sure what resource yields what? Not to worry. Just check the table below to find out! (Keep in mind that of these six, wood, mud, and stone are the resources that you will need the most of.)

Your petpetpets can 'hold' 350 units of each resource amongst themselves (presumably they all have pockets). Beyond that you will need to build a storage facility in which to store the resources you gather. A level 1 storage building can hold 2500 units of each resource. Upgrading these buildings will increase their capacity to 3500 units at level 2, and 4500 units when maxed out at level 3. More about upgrading later.

All of your petpetpets will collect resources at the same time and then will all turn in what they have collected at the same time. Since this means they have to make the journey to the nearest storage facility and then back to their resource tile, some petpetpets will return to work more quickly than others. They will all continue to gather their individual resources for about 18 seconds or so from the time that the last gatherer returned to work. This means that your gatherers should all remain in sync with each other.

Neopets Hunger Levels List

Invaders may attack resources. If left unchecked for too long, they may temporarily damage a resource, making it impossible for your workers to harvest resources on that square. Damaged resources are readily recognizable from their wilted or ruined appearance. Damaged resources will automatically restore themselves after a few hours, or a Neofriend can restore your tiles once per day.

Fighting

Sometimes pests - or even your friends' Soldiers! - will get into your Habitarium trying to steal supplies! Don't worry though, your petpetpets will all band together to push out the intruders. If your petpetpets don't seem to notice the intruders, simply drop one next to the unwanted parasite, and they'll join the battle.

The site used to be independent until 2005 where it was bought by Viacom, the site was bought again by Knowledge Adventure in 2014.Power of the VerseThe verse has really impressive feats despite being limited to its medium. Capping at Large Planet level in destructive power and Massively Faster than Light speed.Every single Neopets is superhuman to a degree.

Occasionally you may come across a glitch where it seems your petpetpets don't recognise a particular pest invasion, and instead of fighting them off they just stand around with question marks above their heads. In these cases, in order to get them to 'recognise' the threat, move your petpetpet to a square which is enclosed on all sides (you can do this with decorative items for this specific purpose) and your petpetpet will somehow magically attack the pest even if there is a large distance between them. (Thanks to little_kitty13 for letting us know about this!)

Building

You can buy buildings from the Shop, but there is a little construction required. To build the buildings you buy, all you need to do is place Worker or Soldier petpetpets next to the materials. Your bugs will get to work and, when the green bar is full, you'll have one fully functional building.

Abracadabra, alakazam!

Leveling Up

Leveling up your Habitarium to the maximum of level 50 can be quite the task. In the earlier levels, only a small amount of XP is needed to reach the next level. However, in the later levels, you will need quite a bit more XP. So, to make things a little easier, here is a list of XP earning tasks.

• Defeating an invader - 30XP
• Discard an egg - 200XP
• Hatching an egg - 30XP
• Help out a friend - 50XP
• Have a petpetpet reach the end of it's life cycle - 50/100/150XP depending on that petpetpet's longevity
• Gather a resource - 1XP per resource gathered
• Finish a building - 200 XP
• Upgrading a building - 300 XP
• Repair a building - 5XP per level of decay

Also, by leveling up your Habitarium, you can earn items, an increased maximum population, and more space in which to place those spiffy decorations. To see all of this, check the table below:

Level 50

Currently there is a level cap in place which prevents you from leveling up beyond level 50. Once you reach this point the experience bar at the top of your Habitarium will be replaced with a purple bar. Each time you fill it a purple gem will appear somewhere on your Habitarium board. Clicking on these gems will grant you 500 NP.

A number of players have reached this point and then set up their Habitarium so it continues running in the background while they do other things or even leave it running all night to amass a large quantity of gems. We strongly advise against this. This behaviour falls into a grey area as far as The Neopets Team and their rules for playing the site are concerned; leaving the game running could be interpreted as letting the computer play the game for you, which is frowned upon. As such some players have experienced a 'lock out' when returning to their game if it has been left running with a number of gems on the screen.

Lock Outs

Being 'locked out' of your Habitarium means that when you try to load it you get stuck at the little 'loading' wheel and your game won't actually load. People mostly experience this at level 50, but it can happen at any time. Factors which seem to increase the likelihood of being locked out include hoarding large quantities of items, refreshing whilst there are a number of purple gems on the screen, and leaving your Habitarium running for extended periods of time.

If you do get locked out there are ways of resetting your Habitarium, although none of them are particularly simple. Your best chance at fixing the problem would be to seek help on the Habitarium Neoboard; there are a number of users there who have experienced with this glitch who can talk you through what to do next.

The Shop

Who doesn't love shopping? Well, even if you don't there are tons of useful items in the Habitarium Shop. The categories of items are as follows:

• Buildings
• Supplies
• Ink (Ink Droppers and Ink Bottles)
• Decorations

Check here for a list of all items and their functions. Also note that some items that need NC to be purchased.

I hope you brought your grocery list..

Upgrade

When you get to certain levels, you can start to upgrade your petpetpets and your structures. The more you upgrade, the more advantageous your petpetpets and structures will be.

At level 11, you can upgrade petpetpets, which helps them to do their jobs better by giving them increased health, food, and rest counts. This way, your petpetpets can go much longer doing their jobs before they need to rest or eat.

Neopets Hunger Levels 2

Upgrading structures will make them more useful. At level thirteen, you can upgrade your houses, which will then be able to hold two more petpetpets (from a maximum of three to a maximum of five). At level seventeen, you can upgrade your nests, which will then have shorter incubation times (the blue bar will fill up faster). Finally, at level 21, you can upgrade your storage, which will then be able to hold more resources, exactly 3500 of each resource, to be precise.

Upgrading will cost you resources, however, so check the table below to see how much of each resource you'll need.

Looks like this could use an upgrade, too.. Or a replacement..

Interacting with Neofriends

As well as take care of your own Habitarium, you can also interact with your Neofriends' Habitariums. Although, it's up to you you'd like to be kind or tricky.

Gifting

Using the gifting option, you can exchange gifts between friends. To give an item to a friend, click on the present icon below their username at the bottom of the screen. From there, you can simply drag and drop the item you wish to give them into the empty bubble. Keep in mind that you cannot transfer items purchased with Neocash to other users.

Raiding

If you're feeling particularly treacherous, you can raid your friends' Habitariums by clicking the sword icon below their username. This will send out your soldier petpetpets to take resources from their tiles. However, be warned! If your friend has a good number of petpetpets, it will be extremely difficult to gain any resources without a good number of soldiers to counter. In the end, if you don't think that your petpetpets will be able to gather resources without being killed by your friend first, it is not a good idea to go on a raid.

Helping Out

Helping out is one of the most useful functions of being able to interact with friends. Once you click the hammer icon below their username, you will be presented with the three options below.

• Take Care of a Petpetpet: This option will restore the health, rest, and hunger of one of your Neofriend's petpetpets.
• Repair a Building: This option will remove one level of decay from one of your Neofriend's buildings.
• Repair all Resource Tiles: This option will repair your Neofriend's resource tiles so that their petpetpets can gather a maximum yield.

Closure

Following their purchase by JumpStart in early 2014, Neopets moved to new offices, and new servers. As a result of the move, the site had to be shut down for several days. During this period it was announced that Habitarium was no longer going to be featured on the site. As such, Habitarium officially closed on September 17, 2014.

Use all of your skill and cunning to beat your opponents in a breath-taking game of Cheat! If you beat the 3rd, 5th or 7th rounds, you also earn a trophy! It only costs 50 NP per play. Neopets cheat game guide.

After the site was back online and running, TNT announced a set of prizes available to all users who had ever played Habitarium. By visiting the Habitarium main page, users can receive a Habitarium Goodies Chest as well as an exclusive site theme.

When opened, the chest will award users with the following items:

PET CENTRAL - In the past, there have been many articles about stat-raising Neggs and how they can increase the speed at which you can train your Neopet. However, none of them have ever discussed the biggest secret to training with Neggs of all – How to keep your pet from being too full to eat and what to do when your pet does get too hungry to eat the Neggs.

Not all of the methods discussed in this article will be new to an experienced trainer, but many people will be able to learn a lot from reading through each of the methods. Even experienced trainers will be able to come away from this with a better understanding of the way each method works and will probably learn a method or two that they never considered before. Each section will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each feeding method along with a description of how it actually works.

The first few feeding methods deal with getting your pet hungry again after they become too bloated to eat. Then, there will be a detailed section about a way to feed your pet more often, but not keep them from being bloated. Finally, there will be the ultimate method of feeding, whereby you can actually prevent your pet from ever being bloated in the first place.

DISCLAIMER: All of the procedures in this article are current; however, NeoPets can easily change how things work in the future.

Healing Springs

This method is probably one of the more well-known methods that people already utilize in order to feed more often. The way it works is after you feed your pet until they are too bloated to eat, you go to the Healing Springs located in Faerieland to see the Water Faerie. Once you click 'Heal my Pets', she can do any number of things, but what you are after is when she says 'and is not hungry any more' at the end of the message.

After you get the message that your pet is not hungry anymore, it will still be too bloated to eat, however, in exactly 3 hours you will be able to feed your pet again. It will still say bloated if you look your pet up in QuickRef, but you will be able to feed again. After you do feed again, you can start going back to the Healing Springs and repeat the cycle. Please note that you do not have to feed in exactly 3 hours for this to work. 3 hours is just the minimum amount of time you will need to wait.

If the Water Faerie does not give you the 'and is not hungry any more' message, then you will have to go back in 30 minutes and try again. You will need to continue trying until you get her to feed your pet.

Neopets Hunger Levels Map

Advantages: This method is low cost since the Healing Springs are free.

Disadvantages: Lately, the Water Faerie has not been very generous and it has become more difficult to get the 'and is not hungry any more' message now that she gives out snowballs too. Also, this can be very time-consuming because it may take many attempts before she does what you want her to do.

Earth Faerie Quest

An Earth Faerie Quest is not really a feeding method since Faerie Quests are so random, but it will still help with feeding/training. It is best to think of an Earth Faerie Quest as a guaranteed 'and not hungry any more' message from the Healing Springs. Once you do get the quest, you can feed your pet until they are too bloated to eat again. Next, you can complete the Earth Faerie Quest. Your pet will be able to eat again exactly 3 hours even though it will still show the pet as 'Bloated' when you look them up in QuickRef.

Advantages: This method is usually not expensive since most of the items the Earth Faerie asks for are low-cost. It isn't time-consuming because you will have a guaranteed time to feed 3 hours after doing the quest.

Disadvantages: Faerie Quests are random and it would be impossible to get the quests on a consistent basis. In fact, sometimes you don't get Faerie Quests for weeks. Also, not everyone would like the fact that when you complete an Earth Faerie Quest your pet gains 1 pound.

The Neolodge

This is one of the more unusual and creative methods to increase how often you can feed your pet. After feeding your pet until they can't eat anymore, you can book them in the Neolodge in Neopia Central. One of the purposes of the Neolodge is to feed your pet when you are away, but when it does feed your pet, since it was already very bloated, it actually lowers the level of hunger your pet has.

Neopets Mood Levels

It doesn't matter how long you book the pet for or what options you chose. After you book your pet into the Neolodge, you should go to QuickRef to see your pets Hunger level. After a few minutes, it will drop from Very Bloated to Bloated. Once the hunger level drops, you should take your pet out of the Neolodge using the link at the bottom. Then in approximately 12 hours you will be able to feed your pet again and repeat the process.

Advantages: It is a low-cost method because it only costs 5 NP to book the pet into the Neolodge. It is also not time-consuming because after you are done withdrawing them from the lodge, you can go do something else either online or offline.

Disadvantages: You can't feed that many Neggs using this method, however, it is still faster than waiting for it to become less bloated on its own.

Rainbow Melt Pizza

The Rainbow Melt Pizza method of feeding is one of the most misunderstood ways of increasing how quickly you can feed. To really understand how Rainbow Melt Pizza works, you must first realize that there are multiple levels of being Bloated and Very Bloated. As some of the previous methods hinted at, there are levels of Bloated that you can still feed your pet. Rainbow Melt Pizza sets your pet's hunger level to Very Full. In fact, even if your pet had a lower hunger level, it would set it to Very Full.

The way to effectively utilize the effects of Rainbow Melt Pizza is to feed it to your pet right before you feed them a Negg. Since Rainbow Melt Pizza lowers a pet's hunger level to Very Full, after you feed the Negg it will be Bloated, however, it will be at a lower level of Bloated than if you had just fed the Negg and not the pizza. Your pet would be ready to eat again in about 3-5 hours even though it will still say Bloated for the Hunger level. At which time, you repeat the process by feeding your pet Rainbow Melt Pizza, then feeding it a Negg again. You will be able to do this every 3-5 hours.

You do not have to feed in exactly 3-5 hours for this to work. 3-5 hours is just the minimum amount of time you will need to wait.

Advantages: It is not time-consuming since you will get a guaranteed feed 3-5 hours after you feed the pizza and Negg. You can go do whatever you want while you wait to feed again.

Disadvantages: This method is extremely expensive. Neggs are already expensive enough, but Rainbow Melt Pizzas are an additional 20k-40k. Since you need a Rainbow Melt Pizza before each Negg, the extra cost adds up very fast.

The Anti-Bloated Method

This method is the most powerful feeding strategy of them all. If you follow this method, you will be able to feed your pets every 2 hours with no effort at all. Just as there are multiple levels of Bloated and Very Bloated, there are also multiple levels of Dying and Starving. It is really the opposite of the spectrum, but they behave in similar ways. When your pet is Very Bloated, it takes a long time for it to come out of that hunger level without you using one of the methods already discussed. When your pet's Hunger level is 'Dying' it has the opposite outcome – it actually takes more food for it to become a Hunger level higher than Starving.

Initially, what you would need to do is let your pet's Hunger level drop to 'Dying'. Depending on its current level, this could take several days. Once your pet's hunger level has reached 'Dying', you can feed a Negg, which will make its hunger level 'Starving'. In exactly 2 hours, you will be able to go to QuickRef and see that the Hunger level has dropped back down to 'Dying'. At this point, you can simply come back every 2 hours and feed your pet.

You do not have to feed in exactly 2 hours for this to work. 2 hours is just the minimum amount of time you will need to wait.

Neopets Hunger Levels Map

Advantages: This is a free method that you don't have to put forth any effort to continue using at all. It is not time-consuming because after you wait 2 hours, you can feed whenever you want.

Disadvantages: Since your pet will stay in Starving and Dying hunger levels, you will not be able to battle your pets. Also, their Moods will drop since they are hungry and feel they aren't being fed even though they would be eating more often than if they were bloated. If your pet gets sick, you will not be able to use the help of the Healing Springs to heal it for free. If you go to the Healing Springs, you risk the chance of the Water Faerie feeding your pets. You would have to wait a long time for it to get back down to 'Dying' again.

Neopets Intelligence Levels Guide

As you can see, there are several methods that can be utilized in order to feed your pets much more quickly. The strategies discussed here are not limited to stat-raising Neggs either; they can also have a huge impact in the Gourmet Club.
