Full maturation from baby to adult takes ~3 days and 20 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.
Maturation has three phases: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~556 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~37h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~46h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.
Don't skip imprinting - each successful imprint boosts the Brute Leedsichthys'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 Brute Leedsichthys. Budget ~556 minutes for the Baby phase - this is when hand-feeding or Maewing nursing is mandatory.
Raising multiple Brute Leedsichthys 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 Brute Leedsichthys, an aquatic, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is a notable presence across multiple maps.
With 100% base Melee Damage, the Brute Leedsichthys has decent hitting power. With 8,400 base Health, the Brute Leedsichthys is one of the toughest creatures in the game. Its base Stamina of 750 gives it exceptional endurance. Weight capacity starts at 2400, giving it massive inventory space.
The Brute Leedsichthys is a wild creature that cannot be tamed through conventional methods. A wild Brute Leedsichthys is worth 30 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0 Element plus 0 Element per level.
