Carrot

The Carrot is a collection item.

Obtaining
Carrots can be obtained through collecting in the Barn, the area under the Mountain, and through Carrot Minions or manual farms on the Private Island. Carrots can also be bought from the Farm Merchant for each. There is a very rare chance of getting a Carrot from a Zombie in the Graveyard.

Collecting carrots increases the player's carrot collection and can grant useful items or perks upon collecting a specific amount of carrots.

Carrots
Carrots is a glitched item dropped from Frosty when it was added in 0.7.5. Unlike most of the other glitched items, Carrots can be put on the Auction House. For some reason, the game treats Carrots as a block, and it can only be found in the "Blocks" section of the Auction House.

Trivia

 * It is not possible to craft a normal carrot on a stick. By attempting to do it you will obtain a normal carrot.
