Astrodelphis Egg & Breeding Calculator
Full maturation from baby to adult takes ~2 days and 6 hours (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.
Maturation has three phases: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~327 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~22h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~27h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.
Don't skip imprinting - each successful imprint boosts the Astrodelphis'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 Astrodelphis. Budget ~327 minutes for the Baby phase - this is when hand-feeding or Maewing nursing is mandatory.
Raising multiple Astrodelphis simultaneously? Set the dino count and the calculator scales food requirements automatically. 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 Astrodelphis is a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. Classified under the DMG group.
The Astrodelphis has 325 base Health - decently sturdy. Melee starts at 100% - respectable melee power that scales with level-ups. With 250 base Stamina, the Astrodelphis has moderate endurance. A base Weight of 280 means good carrying capacity.
The Astrodelphis is a knockout tame: apply enough torpor to knock it out, then place food in its inventory. Element is the most effective food for taming, offering the highest affinity per feeding.
As a tame, the Astrodelphis is primarily used for resource harvesting, excelling at gathering specific materials. Defeating one in the wild grants 3 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.67 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
