Recommended parent pairs for Mau
Ranked by accessibility: a pair scores by its rarer parent, because a higher CombiRank means a more common Pal. These are the pairs real players can assemble first — not just the first rows of the table.

Step by step: breeding Mau
- Build a Breeding Farm. It unlocks at Technology Level 19 and costs 100 Wood, 20 Stone and 50 Fiber. The palworld breeding farm setup guide covers placement.
- Pick a pair from the table below — one male, one female — and assign both Pals to the Breeding Farm. Any pair in the table produces Mau; the recommended pairs above are the ones most players can build first.
- Mind the genders. For ordinary pairs only the two species matter, never which parent is male. Mau's wild gender ratio is 50% male, which matters when you are catching parents.
- Stock Cake in the farm's box. No Cake, no Egg. Cake is baked from Flour, Red Berries, Milk, Egg and Honey — the palworld cake farm guide shows how to keep it flowing.
- Hatch the Egg. The pair produces an Egg of the type matching Mau's element. Put it in an Egg Incubator and check the palworld egg incubation calculator for its hatch time and ideal temperature, or read the palworld egg types guide.

Breeding Mau for passive skills
Species is only half the plan — the child also inherits passive skills from both parents. Once your pair is set, run it through the palworld passive skill calculator to see the odds of inheriting the passives you want, and read the palworld passive skill breeding guide for how inheritance actually picks its winners.
