Parasaur egg
I got a parasaur egg that my parasaurs dropped and I don't see the Health bar that everyone says there is I did everything to incubate it: 4 campfires and a standing torch and nothing worked I saw that people say that it will show an incubate bar but i don't know what to do. Does anyone knows what to do?

Is it a fertilized egg? Or did you just find it on the ground?

If you didn't mate 2 Parasaurs to get that egg, it's not fertilised and therefore won't hatch. Useful for food (for you or taming an Oviraptor, barely) or as kibble. Wild dinos do not mate...yet...

Its not fertalized, To get a fertilized egg you must mate 2 tamed dinos of oposite gender.

Just to be sure - did you have 2 Parasaurs (a male and female) and set them to wander in an enclosed 'paddock' or fenced area? Did you observe the many-love-heart 'mating' icon. Female dinos drop eggs regardless of whether a male is present or not - just having as male nearby does not make them drop fertilised eggs. They have to be set to wander to mate, at which point they will drop a fertilised egg - which I'm pretty sure tells you it's fertilised... Haven't bred dinos for a while...

Yes the parasaur dropped it in a fenced area and I brought the egg to my house and tried to incubate it and nothing worked

Hmmm, in that case then I'm not sure what's happened. Last time I bred a dino, it dropped a fertilised egg, I dropped it in an A/C controlled room and watched it hatch...

Maybe your house was too warm? Not warm enough? I don't know without being there to see what you're doing...

if it doesnt have a helath bar and if it doesnt say the parent names it is not fertilized. End of story.
Take a screen shot of the egg hud and post it here.

Has to look like this:

It shows me the exact same thing without the health bar or the incubating and it shows me the parent name and the decomposing and the description. What can it be?

Please post a screenshot. Eggs dropped by tamed dinos do tell who it was dropped by. Doesn't necessarily mean it was fertilized. If it tells you parents: and then 2 dino names, then yea it was fertilized. If it only says dropped by, then no.

Or you won't screen shot it at all as you don't even own it on this account....
Note that a female can lay an unfertilized egg while she's mating -- I've had it happen, just as part of her normal egg-laying. Maybe you started the mating, saw one of those, and stopped the mating even though it wasn't done yet.
