Everything Breeding/Incubation/Feeding/Tips

[Ryker]

Currently Breedable:

Anky, Bronto, Dilo, Dodo, Parasaur, Pachy, Raptor, Rex, Sarco, Spino, Stego, Turtle

Wolves: but don't do anything (prolly first for testing live birth/no egg needed)

*mated two wolves, and nothing

Mating Process: Must enable wander on both male/female, they must stay near each other. you will see a mating bar on the female.



Methods:

1. Easiest way to mate them is to put them both on follow, then enable wander. Once this is done, then hit unfollow (U is default) and continue to spam this until they are done. This keeps them from moving.

2. create a small pen(depending on dino size, and stick them in it.

Patched Doesnt work 1. (easiest overall)Have two people sit on the dinos next to each other
Patched Donesnt work 2. Over Encumber the dinos, or Encumber 1 and sit on other


Incubated Eggs

A/C units are the way to go, the insulation is wonderful, 4 works wonders spread out a bit!

HUGE TIME SAVER/HELPER: You can place fertilized eggs in the fridge to continue at a later time, if you do not have time to watch it for 2-3 hours. So break it up in to increments if you like. (primitive server) Preservation bin works same way however ensure you have plenty of spark powder so it does not run out.

3 status indicators:

Incubating = Find perfect temperature, yellow bar dropping, when done will hatch and produce baby
Too Hot = Get in cool place/turn ac on, put in ac area
Too Cold = put camp fire/forge/grill next to egg or egg next to them to warm them up.

Air Conditioner seems to work wonders so far for the following eggs:

Dodo
Trike
Raptor

Primitive servers may want to take to caves, to keep cool and build fires/forges inside to control heat.


Does egg health affect stats? No proof so far.

Incubation time?

Cold/Hot issue/temps for each egg?

You can pick up eggs and move them, but must be on ground to incubate.

(temperature is in celcius)
(all are tested indoors)

Anky Eggs:
BAD: 7 / 24-30
GOOD: 17-23
next to AC unit: 17-28
(untested)
good: 13-21

Bronto Eggs:

Dilo Eggs:

Dodo Eggs:
So far both hatched dead

Para Eggs:

Pachy Eggs:

Raptor Eggs:
BAD: 30-38
Good: 17-29
next to AC unit: 17-37
(untested)
good: 14

Like warmer climate, A/C seems to work well so far.

Rex Eggs:

Sarco Eggs:

Spino Eggs:
GOOD: 25-33
next to AC unit: 21-39
BAD: -24 / 34+

Stego Eggs:

Turtle Eggs:


Hatched: You must feed them asap or they die!

Babies must be feed through their inventory, just place food in inventory, as he matures he can hold more and more in his inventory, once he leaves baby stage (after 10%), you can use trough to keep him fed, and can rely on it.

Raw Meat = Helps keep alive no bonus
Cooked Meat = Helps keep alive no bonus
Raw Prime Meat = Helps keep alive no bonus
Prime Cooked Meat = Helps keep alive no bonus
Cooked Meat Jerky = Helps keep alive no bonus
Prime Meat Jerky = Helps keep alive no bonus
Kibble = Helps keep alive no bonus

They have fixed the eating bug, so now you dont have to baby sit all day, just continue to ensure you have food for the growing dino.

ahu shima mod's ac + Rex egg = Incubation. Ive tried making wolves mate multiple times now and no eggs are dropping. Just tried for the third time and nothing v_v

erm... mammals.. bees.. birds and flowers...

dragoninahuman eredeti hozzászólása:

Fun fact: putting the fertilised eggs in a fridge, does not reset the incubating progress, in fact, it simply pauses everything, and it is treated like any normal egg would(it basicly won't spoil, so if you don't have time to fully hatch the egg/don't have time to feed the baby dino, you can hatch it later by putting it in the fridge)

Can I get a confirmation on this? I JUST realized, with my baby raptors about to hatch, that I need more meat than what I have.

you need tons and tons of meat

mine was 104 baby raptor
tribe mate was 126

[LadyofHats]

can someone confirm.. babies dont use feeders?

[Yuri Oorlov]

they use feeders but gods the amounts of food they need currently is untenable

[DickieDos]

I AM GROOT eredeti hozzászólása:

is there also a bar that indicates the growth status of the baby dino?

Yes there is a bar that shows up showing how mature it is. Also make sure you take the baby off wounder and follow.

lol there will be 0 dino's left on island with these babies!! mass raids for meat, dead baby dino's everywhere!

[Yuri Oorlov]

had my tribemates fill 2 argents a Rex and a SPino and still do no think its enough food

lol its not.... watch that mature bar lmao get more! Lots more someone needs to continue to farm meat as a sole priority, we only have 2 people and its not enough for 1 person to farm the meat.

[Ryker]

lol berries are so much easier, but its so much food... lol so far 60 slots in trough, 30 left of berries for a baby trike.

1berry per second.... equates to = you must have someone on 24/7 lol

feed babies like you would tame and animal with its torpor, just keep it stocked up on food, wont take 1000s. i was feeding my baby 167 raptor and for a few mins i gave it couple 100 meat till i noticed i didnt have to and just let food drop and then toped up again. slowly the mature bar went up, but due to not knowing how long it would take in hours, took 2 hours for the raptor egg to hatch. I let it die as i dint have 2 to 4+ hours left to mature it.

If you trought feed or just keep feed with stacks they just eat and eat when they have no need to, you have to hand feed it to keep its food right or you will use 10000000000s
