"There are no such things as Dragonaches! They're imaginary." --Quote from "Chewnicorn in the Garden" episode

The ground shakes as it moves, the trees quiver when it roars, its breath can scorch the earth. Truly incredible and utterly terrible, and all the more desirable for it.

Classic Requirements

Finding a Dragonache (pronounced drae'gahn ahsh; rhymes with panache) egg is a matter of luck and patience. First, you will need a Mine in your garden. These are available from Willy Builder at level 26, for 16,500 chocolate coins. Second, you will need to hire one or more Diggerlings from Arfur's Inn. The Diggerlings are now able to unearth a Dragonache egg, however it may take a while. (See the Mine article for tips on improving production.)

Each garden may have its own Dragonache, however, you will have to build a Mine and hire Diggerlings to unearth that garden's egg. There is only one Dragonache egg per garden, and the egg cannot be broken, or crated.

Once obtained, the Dragonache egg won't hatch on its own, as other eggs do. Instead, you will need to purchase a Cluckles from Miss Petula's Paper Pets. Direct () the Cluckles to the egg to hatch it.

The newly-hatched Dragonache will be a baby, but won't cocoon on its own. To mature it into an adult, you will need to feed the young Dragonache a bottle of milk, a snapdragon flower, a Dragumfly, a Reddhott, and a Salamango. Shortly after eating all five items, the Dragonache will cocoon, then emerge as a quite larger adult.

Species variants

The Dragonache variants are uniquely obtained. Each has its own color, style of teeth, mane, ridges, wings, and tail. The terrain where you hatch its egg will affect the color of the Dragonache. The other features are completely random. It is estimated that there are over 20,000 Dragonache variants.

Note: If you've whacked all the hard earth with your shovel, and no longer have any dried/cracked earth left in a garden, there's no way to get a patch of it back. Plan in advance to leave some in a garden, if you wish to hatch a gold Dragonache there.

Other information

If you decide that your Dragonache is getting in the way, you can dismiss it by selecting it, bringing up the menu (), and selecting dismiss. When you want it back, Gretchen Fetchum is happy to fetch it for you, free of charge!

Gretchen will only fetch a dismissed Dragonache back into the same garden that it was dismissed from. Also, she cannot be hired to hunt for additional Dragonaches in the wild.
