Are you trying to breed a Humbug in My Singing Monsters? Humbug is an Ethereal monster, which means it takes a little bit more to breed one. It's not difficult, but it will require patience since the chance of getting a Humbug egg is very low. However, with some perseverance, you can welcome this great coin- and shard-producing monster to your collection.

Breeding a Humbug in My Singing Monsters

To get a Humbug, you need to breed a Quarrister with a Triple-Element Monster (such as Clamble, Thumpies, PomPom, or Reedling). You usually have about a 1% chance to breed a Humbug, but during a Breeding Bonanza, that increases to 500%-1000%.

  1. The best parents to breed a Humbug are a Quarrister and one triple-element monster. Some potential combinations are Quarrister and Clamble , Thumpies , PomPom , or Reedling . [1] This is also the best combination if you're trying to breed a Rare Humbug unless you already have a Humbug. [2]
    • There is about a 1% chance of successfully breeding a Humbug. If you breed for a Humbug 70 times, you have about a 50% chance of successfully breeding one. If you do 690 breeding attempts, you will have a 99.9% chance of getting at least one Humbug.
    • During a Breeding Bonanza, this chance is increased to 500% to 1000%. [3]
  2. Monsters must be at least level 4 to breed, so level up your parent monsters if they're not already at least level 4. [4]

  3. While not necessary, you can upgrade your Breeding Structures to reduce breeding times by 25%. You can upgrade your structure by spending 25 diamonds.
    • You can also add Wishing Torches around your Breeding Structure to help increase the odds of a rare monster being bred. [5] Wishing Torches can be lit for 24 hours by paying 2 diamonds or be lit permanently by paying 100 diamonds.
  4. Once you're ready to breed your monsters, put them in the Breeding Structure. A Humbug egg is furry with green and dark green stripes, similar to a Humbug. [6]
    • To get a Rare Humbug, you'll need to wait until a breeding window opens up. There are some promotions and events where all Rares of a certain element are available. [7]
  5. By default, a Humbug egg takes 1 day and 12 hours to hatch. However, if you've got enhanced Breeding Structures, it will hatch in 1 day and 3 hours.

  1. The chance of getting a Humbug is very low, even if you're using the best parents. Try waiting for a Breeding Bonanza for a better chance at getting a Humbug.
  2. You can only breed a Humbug on Earth Island. Make sure your parent monsters are on Earth Island before you try breeding them.
  3. While this isn't confirmed, some users have superstitions that using the same combo of parents to breed a Monster is unlucky.
    • Since you can breed a Quarrister with any Triple-Element Monster to get a Humbug, try switching up the other parent. The best choices to breed with Quarrister are Clamble, Thumpies, PomPom, and Reedling.
