The raising calculator above shows exactly how much food you need for each maturation phase of the Aberrant Baryonyx. Expect ~278 minutes of active care during the Baby phase before it graduates to trough-feeding as a Juvenile.
The multiplier feature helps plan large-scale Aberrant Baryonyx raises by totaling food across all babies. Different food types have different spoil timers - factor that into which food you stockpile.

During the Baby phase (0-10%), you must hand-feed or use a Maewing to nurse. From Juvenile (10%+), dinos can eat from a Feeding Trough on their own. Use Preserving Salt in troughs to double spoil times.
Breeding the Aberrant Baryonyx produces fertilized eggs that require careful temperature control. Incubation temperature must stay between 29°C and 35°C - use Air Conditioners, Standing Torches, or Dimetrodons to maintain the range. At the correct temperature, the egg hatches in approximately 1 hour and 59 minutes.
The baby Aberrant Baryonyx takes approximately 1 day and 22 hours to fully mature at default rates - requiring significant patience. The most labor-intensive part is the baby phase (0–10% maturation) when it can't use a Feeding Trough yet.
Each baby inherits stats from both parents with a chance of mutation - +2 wild levels to a random stat plus a color change. Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.
Maturation has three phases: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~278 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~19h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~23h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.
Imprint bonuses are significant: a fully imprinted Aberrant Baryonyx gains 30% extra damage and damage resistance with its imprinter mounted. You'll be asked to cuddle, walk, or feed specific kibble at regular intervals during maturation.
The Aberrant Baryonyx, a tamable, piscivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is a notable presence across multiple maps. Classified under the Variant group.
Dealing 106% base Melee Damage, the Aberrant Baryonyx brings solid damage output to the table. At 422 base HP, the Aberrant Baryonyx is moderately tough. Stamina sits at 325 base, providing moderate endurance. A base Weight of 325 means a solid weight pool.
Taming the Aberrant Baryonyx requires rendering it unconscious first - use Tranq Arrows, Darts, or Shocking Tranq Darts to apply torpor. Feed it Regular Kibble for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.
After taming, the Aberrant Baryonyx is primarily used for resource harvesting, excelling at gathering specific materials. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 29°C and 35°C. Killing a wild Aberrant Baryonyx yields 5 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.52 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
