If you care about limited pets, this is a simple week: spend old currency smartly, grab leaving items first, then farm for the new bird.

↖ Adopt Me Summer Camp Journey Part 3 Release Time

Summer Camp Journey Part 3 launches on Friday at 4:00 PM UK time.

The update moves from water to air. The boat activity leaves. The new airship activity becomes the main way to earn Compass Coins.

↖ What Is Leaving: Nurse Shark, Boat Tour, and Pet Wear

The current water phase is ending. That means several limited items are likely gone after the update.

If you do not own the Nurse Shark, buy it before the update. Pets usually matter more than accessories in trades.

If you already have the Nurse Shark, grab the pet wear next. Limited pet wear gets ignored during events, then becomes annoying to trade for later.

↖ How to Get the Pilot Gull in Adopt Me

The Pilot Gull is the new rare pet for the air travel phase.

Expected method:

1. Join Adopt Me after the Friday update.

2. Go to the Summer Camp Journey area.

3. Play the new airship / flying tour activity.

4. Earn Compass Coins.

5. Spend Compass Coins on the Pilot Gull.

The gameplay loop should be close to the Nurse Shark phase: complete the event task, collect currency, buy the pet.

↖ Pilot Gull Price: How Many Compass Coins You Need

The exact price may appear in-game on release, but the safe estimate is around 6,800–7,000 Compass Coins.

Previous journey pets landed near that range. Plan for 7,000 Compass Coins and you are covered.

If you are under 7,000 Compass Coins, stop wasting currency on small items. Farm first. Buy after.

↖ Compass Coins Warning: Do Not Save Them for Main Summer Camp

This is the mistake many players make.

Compass Coins are for the Journey phase only. The main Summer Camp update is expected to use a new currency.

Do not hoard Compass Coins expecting to use them later. Spend them on Journey rewards while they matter.

↖ New Pilot Gull Pet Wear

The Pilot Gull update adds aviation-themed pet wear.

The Gold Aviators may age well. Glasses-style pet wear usually fits more pets than bulky accessories.

If you trade for looks, buy the full Pilot Gull set. A themed pet with matching wear is easier to sell than a random single item.

↖ Sheepdog Ducky: Admin Abuse Pet

The Sheepdog Ducky is tied to Adopt Me's next admin abuse event.

This one is important because it is not expected to be a normal 500 Bucks buy.

That means fewer copies may enter the game compared with earlier duckies. Better scarcity usually means better trade potential.

If you are free-to-play, join this event. No heavy Bucks saving needed.

↖ What to Buy First

Here is the clean priority order.

Hard rule: pets before pet wear unless you already own the pet.

↖ Trading Strategy for Pilot Gull and Sheepdog Ducky

Do not overpay on day one. New pets always get hype-taxed.

Use this simple approach:

• If you get Pilot Gull early, trade only for strong overpays.
• If you miss it early, wait. More players will farm it.
• If you get Sheepdog Ducky, do not dump it instantly.
• If offers look weak, hold. Event-only pets often settle after a few days.
• Keep one clean version if you collect long-term value pets.

Best practical trade setup: Pilot Gull + Flight Helmet + Gold Aviators. Full themes usually move faster.

↖ FAQ

↖ When does the Pilot Gull release in Adopt Me?

The Pilot Gull releases with Summer Camp Journey Part 3 on Friday at 4:00 PM UK time.

↖ How do you get the Pilot Gull?

Play the new airship / flying tour activity, earn Compass Coins, then buy the Pilot Gull from the event shop.

↖ How much will the Pilot Gull cost?

Expect around 6,800–7,000 Compass Coins. Farm at least 7,000 to be safe.

↖ Is the Nurse Shark leaving Adopt Me?

Yes. The Nurse Shark, Boat Tour, and nurse-themed pet wear are leaving when the new update arrives.

↖ How do you get the Sheepdog Ducky?

Join Adopt Me's admin abuse event on Saturday at 5:00 PM UK time. It is expected to be event-based, not a normal Bucks purchase.

↖ Summary

The smart play is simple.

Buy the Nurse Shark before it leaves. Grab nurse pet wear if you already own the shark. Save about 7,000 Compass Coins for the Pilot Gull. Do not save Compass Coins for the main Summer Camp update, because a new currency is expected.

Then join the Saturday admin abuse event for the Sheepdog Ducky. Limited access pets usually have better trade potential than easy shop pets.
