(In the immortal words of Scar from the Lion King: “Be Prepared”). Do: Have your baby dino food before the baby arrives, by at least 5 minutes, so you can imprint upon and feed the baby dino.(and you don’t know the gender until mashing a combination of accept and cancel on the naming tab) (My first baby dino, a dilo named Diego suffered that fate. This is usually when the baby can die, because it needs food mere seconds after birth. Don’t: Name your baby immediately after imprinting.Do: Name your baby once it’s after the critical first 5% of it’s maturation, when its hunger is at a stable point.Finally, if there are twins from your egg or mother animal, and you aren’t in creative mode or extremely well off and have the food to raise 2 babies, you will have to choose a twin to “release to Elsewhere” (I hope someone understood that literary reference from The Giver). Some babies eat very specific foods, like baby otters only eat fish, and baby vultures only eat rotten meat, so don’t get caught unprepared.There is one final meter to watch when the baby is born/hatched, this is the Maturation Meter, which goes up as your baby dino grows up. You need to place that dino’s taming food in the baby’s inventory, and keep watching that inventory to continue stuffing food into it. During the last few minutes of those timers, stay crouched and close to that egg of mother animal, and imprint on the critter immediately. For example, a dire wolf’s time is within 20-25 minutes (Which honestly feels like nothing) and then you get a dire wolf puppy.Īfter you keep that egg at that perfect temperature and wait through that gestation timer, you will have a baby dino that needs to be imprinted upon and fed. This bar is the Gestation meter, and depending on the species, the timer varies. After the mating meter reaches 100%, a second meter appears for the female. Mammals give live births, in case you didn’t take science class in third grade, and the same applies to Ark. Some dinos can only be tamed via egg theft (i feel like a jerk writing this :l) Which is were the use of a oviaraptor comes into play, because egg theft tames are AGGRESSIVE when you try to get eggs, like trying to be one of the pigs in the Angry Birds cartoons. Use Fireplaces, campfires, or A/C units to keep the egg at a proper temperature and make sure the egg doesn’t die before hatching. Every fertilized egg has a 7-day spoil timer and a health bar, which will go down if the egg is too hot or cold. There is no gestation period after the breeding, and the egg is laid as soon as the breeding meter reaches 100%. So all people just starting to select “enable mating” on your dodos’ Behavior slot, read this guide so you don’t end up looking like the poor critter in the picture when you get the notification of your dodo chick dying of starvation in front of his parents.ĭinos that lay eggs include all birds like pteras and argies, reptiles like rexes and gigas, and amphibians like beezulbufos (I swear, if i spelled that right i will scream). This guide will cover the breeding basics of egg laying animals, mammals, the do’s and don’ts of raising your newly hatched or birthed creature, and establishing a bloodline in which a mutation can surface. Do’s and Dont’s of Raising Your New Babyīreeding is a way of showing you are quite well-off on The Ark, from having the resources needed to incubate and egg and keep the baby alive, and having enough dinos to establish a decent bloodline in which mutations can occur.
