Aberrant Gigantopithecus Egg & Breeding Calculator

The Aberrant Gigantopithecus gives live birth after mating, skipping the egg-incubation step entirely. Gestation takes approximately 6 hours and 39 minutes at default rates.

Full maturation from baby to adult takes ~3 days and 5 hours (1x rate), progressing over many real-world days, demanding serious time investment. Hand-feeding is required until 10% maturation. After that, a Feeding Trough handles the rest.

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.

The dinosaur is in its mother's womb, requiring time and care from the mother for successful gestation and birth.

Baby

The hatched dinosaur, now a baby, needs constant attention and food placed directly in its inventory to survive, or a nearby Maewing to take care of its needs.

Juvenile

10% - 50%

15:25:55

The dinosaur reaches the juvenile stage, where it can now eat from a feeding trough, reducing the need for direct feeding.

Adolescent

50% - 100%

19:17:24

The dinosaur reaches the adolescent stage, becoming more independent and able to follow you while continuing to grow toward full maturity.

Maturation has three phases: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~463 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~31h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~39h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.

Don't skip imprinting - each successful imprint boosts the Aberrant Gigantopithecus's stats, and hitting 100% grants a 30% combat bonus when the imprinter rides it. Keep various kibble types on hand, as imprint requests are randomized between cuddles, walks, and kibble feeding.

The raising calculator above shows exactly how much food you need for each maturation phase of the Aberrant Gigantopithecus. Expect ~463 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 Gigantopithecus 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.

The Aberrant Gigantopithecus, a tamable, herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is a notable presence across multiple maps. It belongs to the Variant category.

Its base Stamina of 300 gives it moderate endurance. With 106% base Melee Damage, the Aberrant Gigantopithecus has solid damage output. The Aberrant Gigantopithecus has 614 base Health - quite durable. Weight capacity starts at 220, giving it a reasonable inventory size.

Taming the Aberrant Gigantopithecus doesn't require unconsciousness. Instead, sneak up to it and hand-feed its preferred food. Its preferred food is Regular Kibble.

After taming, the Aberrant Gigantopithecus is primarily used for resource harvesting, excelling at gathering specific materials. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. A wild Aberrant Gigantopithecus is worth 20 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.35 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
