Adopt Me Ducky Driving Notes: Ruddy Duck, Ruddy Duck Waddler, S'mores Raccoon, and Forest Sprite
The official Ducky Driving Notes post went live on Friday, July 10, 2026. The update closes out Summer Camp with a new driving minigame, two duck-themed pets, a premium s'mores pet, a common forest pet, and another round of camp stickers.
What changed in Ducky Driving Notes
The headline addition is Ducky Driving, a short minigame where you drive a Ruddy Duck Waddler around Adoption Island and scoop up Acorns before the timer runs out. It is the kind of event loop that rewards repeat runs more than one-off grinding, so the fastest route matters.
The pets are simple to read from the official notes: Ruddy Duck is the Acorn pet, Ruddy Duck Waddler is the stronger Acorn pet, S'mores Raccoon is the Robux pet, and Forest Sprite is the cheaper common pet. That gives the final Summer Camp week one premium lane and one Acorn lane players can actually plan around.
| Pet / item | Rarity | How to get | Cost / requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ruddy Duck | Rare | Ducky Driving update | 29,000 Acorns |
| Ruddy Duck Waddler | Ultra-Rare | Ducky Driving update | 70,000 Acorns |
| S'mores Raccoon | Ultra-Rare | Premium pet | 150 Robux |
| Forest Sprite | Common | Summer Camp shop | 3,700 Acorns |
How Ducky Driving works
The official notes say you have 1 minute and 30 seconds to drive the Ruddy Duck Waddler around Adoption Island and collect as many Acorns as possible. The minigame is short enough that route choice matters: if you drift too wide, the timer eats your run faster than the Acorn payout can recover it.
For players coming in from the earlier Summer Camp weeks, this is a clean final-loop activity rather than a new currency system. You are still using the camp theme and the island route, but the loop is now about speed and control instead of fishing, treasure chests, or Compass Coin prep.
If you want the new pets, prioritize Ducky Driving runs first and hold extra Acorns until you decide whether you want Ruddy Duck or Ruddy Duck Waddler. If you are after the premium lane, S'mores Raccoon is a direct Robux buy, so there is no need to overtrade for it on day one.
Camp patches and stickers
The update also turns Summer Camp into a completion chase. The Taskboard now tracks camp patches that reward stickers for a set of returning activities and one Ducky Driving-specific badge.

S'mores and more
The July 10 notes also add a camp shop pass with sweets-themed gear. The one that will matter most to traders is the S'mores Raccoon, but the Acorn items are still worth noting if you are spending down the last of your summer currency.
| Item | Type | Rarity | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| S'mores Stroller | Stroller | Ultra-Rare | 20,000 Acorns |
| S'mores Earrings | Pet wear | Uncommon | 2,500 Acorns |
| S'mores Pogo Stick | Toy | Rare | 4,500 Acorns |
| Back Paddle | Accessory | Common | 10 Bronze Karp |
Are Ducky Driving values live?
Not yet. The article can cover the official names, rarities, and prices right away, but the trade layer should stay cautious until public tracker rows and early offers settle. Ruddy Duck, Ruddy Duck Waddler, and Forest Sprite are still market-forming, and S'mores Raccoon should not be forced into calculator math before there is a clean lane.
If you are deciding whether to spend now or hold, the safe rule is simple: use the official prices for planning and wait for actual trade data before treating any of these new pets as settled value anchors.
Bug fixes in Ducky Driving Notes
The July 10 notes also clean up a few rough edges. The remaining Admin Abuse issues were fixed, animated sticker odds now appear on the Premium Sticker board, switching to a baby while driving should no longer show a white screen, and the replayable goals in the guide are responsive again.
