Use the raising calculator to plan food requirements for raising Aberrant Purlovia babies through all three growth stages. Budget ~292 minutes for the Baby phase - this is when hand-feeding or Maewing nursing is mandatory.
Adjust the dino count to calculate food for multiple Aberrant Purlovia babies at once - essential for batch breeding operations. Consider food spoilage when choosing what to feed: Kibble lasts days, while Raw Meat spoils in minutes.

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 produces live offspring - no egg management needed. Gestation takes approximately 4 hours and 10 minutes at default rates.
Full maturation from baby to adult takes ~2 days (1x rate), progressing over a lengthy period. During the baby phase (0–10%), hand-feed it directly. From 10% onward (juvenile), it can eat from a Feeding Trough.
Offspring inherit parental stats and have a small chance to mutate, gaining +2 levels in a random stat. Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.
Raising a baby Aberrant Purlovia involves three maturation phases: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~292 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~19h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~24h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.
Don't skip imprinting - each successful imprint boosts the Aberrant Purlovia's stats, and hitting 100% grants a 30% combat bonus when the imprinter rides it. Imprint requests include cuddling, walks, and specific kibble - check the wiki for which kibble to stockpile.
Found throughout the ARKs, the Aberrant Purlovia is a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It falls within the Variant classification.
With 264 base Health, the Aberrant Purlovia is on the squishy side. Dealing 106% base Melee Damage, the Aberrant Purlovia brings respectable melee power to the table. With 300 base Stamina, the Aberrant Purlovia has decent staying power. Weight capacity starts at 400, giving it a solid weight pool.
You'll need to knock the Aberrant Purlovia unconscious before taming it. Tranquilizers are the standard approach. Regular Kibble is the most effective food for taming, offering the highest affinity per feeding.
As a tame, the Aberrant Purlovia earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. A wild Aberrant Purlovia is worth 6 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.32 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
