“ | Reedlings live and breathe music - literally. Somewhere in their evolution they forgot how to breathe through mouths and noses, so they developed flute-like breathing spines. Reedlings sometimes release the odd toot in their sleep. | ” |

Description[]
Reedling is a Triple-Element Monster that is first unlocked on Water Island. It was added on October 10th, 2012 during Version 1.0.3. It is best obtained by breeding Dandidoo and Noggin. By default, its breeding time is 12 hours long. As a Triple-Elemental, Reedling does not have a high Coin production.
Song[]
Audio sample:
Instrument: Flute
Reedling's contribution to the Island's song is a tune produced by playing the recorder-shaped spines on its back. Strangely enough, the timbre of the instrument is more similar to a pipe organ's than any other wind instrument (the pipe organ does include reeds in some of its pipes, making it an appropriate choice for Reedling). However, on Fire Haven and Tribal Island, it sounds more like a flute.
VSTs[]
Virtual Studio Technology is an audio plugin software that has libraries of sound effects and synthesized instruments. Within these libraries are SoundFonts, which are the individual effects and instruments themselves. The Monster-Handlers utilize several VSTs to create the sounds of instrumental and sometimes vocal Monsters.
- Natural and Gold Island
VST: Kontakt
Sound library: Peter Siedlaczek's Advanced Orchestra
SoundFont: 02 Alto Flute
- Fire Haven
VST: Kontakt 6
Sound library: Kontakt Factory
SoundFont: Flute
- Tribal Island
VST: HALion 6
Sound library: HS SE Basic
SoundFont: [GM 074] Flute, with reverb added to it
Breeding[]
Reedling can be bred using monsters that combine to provide all the elements of Air, Plant and Earth. Possible combinations:
- Of these, Dandidoo+Noggin is the best combination, as failing and breeding a Noggin lets you retry the combo almost instantly.
Reedling can also be bred in breeding failures. Some combinations that result in a Reedling in a breeding failure include:
- + Reedling and Rare Reedling
(Best choice, 100% chance of a Reedling if Rare Reedling is unavailable)
- + Reedling and Shellbeat
- + Reedling and Quarrister
(Good choice, 1% chance of a Jeeode/Humbug)
- + Reedling and Noggin
(Good choice, slight chance of Reedling but Noggin takes 5 seconds)
- + Reedling and Tring
Likes[]
Every Monster has different things that they like. For every unique object that they like that's placed near the Monster, the Monster's happiness will increase by 25%. Placing more than one of the same liked item near a Monster won't increase its happiness by an additional amount. If there's a Unity Tree on the Island, items don't need to be near the Monster. Below are the things liked by Reedling:
- Potbelly (requires level 9)
- Shrubb (level 9) ()
- Beeyoot Tree (level 8)
- Pipes of Cicado (level 10)
- Squeed Statue (level 16) ()

Earning Rate and Maximum Income[]
Earning rate is in Coins per minute and depends on Happiness % (Likes increase Happiness) and Monster Level. Each Monster also has a maximum amount of income it can hold at a time. Increasing the Monster's Level also increases this limit.
Feeding Monsters[]
Each Monster needs to be fed four times before it reaches the next level. Increasing the Monster's level increases the Coins earned per minute, as well as the maximum Coins earned.

Egg Consumption[]
While trying to breed other Monsters (particularly Monsters with a very low chance of breeding), the following Wublins, Celestials, and Vessels can be used to "dispose of" Reedling eggs immediately instead of putting them into a Nursery and having that Nursery not be available. Note that doing this for Rare Wublins will cause the Wublin to stop producing currency and the eggs will not expire.

Note that Monster eggs can only be "disposed of" before awakening Wublins, Celestials, and Vessels; afterwards those Monsters will not accept any eggs. Also note that Monsters to which you have already disposed the number of Reedling eggs that it accepts, will no longer be available as a "recycle bin" for such eggs. Awakened Celestials only accept eggs during their corresponding Celestial month.

Notes[]
- Reedling's name comes from the reed instrument.
- Ironically, Reedling's sound comes from a flute, which does not have a reed.
- Reedling is the only Monster to have an extra Like on every Island it appears on, as it likes both Potbelly and Shrubb, with the latter being its first Mystery Like.
- Reedling is depicted way smaller in the collection book than it actually is when placed. The same situation applies to other Monsters, with Potbelly and Scups being other notable examples.
- Reedling and Blabbit are said to share the same ancestor, which has yet to be revealed.
- Reedling is the last of the Natural Triple-Element Monsters to be available upon buying a new Island, being Water Island.
- On Composer Island during Spooktacle 2017, there was a bug where Reedling's face and ears appear in front of the Smunkin Mask costume, rather than behind it. A similar thing happened to the Thumpies and Mammott at the same time.
- Similarly, Reedling's face and ears appeared over its mask when wearing its Breath Tweeter costume on Fire Haven during its singing animations. Its mouth also overlapped the Oni-rous Mask during the animation, but it was less noticeable.
- Young Reedlings are called pups.
- A group of Reedlings is called a "Romp."[citation needed]
- Reedling is the only Triple-Element Monster to be on three consecutive Islands, those being Water Island, Earth Island, and Fire Haven.
- Despite the recorder-like spines on its back, Reedling plays a concert flute instead.
