Corrupted Pteranodon Egg & Breeding Calculator

After hatching or birth, the baby Corrupted Pteranodon matures slowly, reaching adulthood in about 1 day and 13 hours at 1x maturation. The most labor-intensive part is the baby phase (0–10% maturation) when it can't use a Feeding Trough yet.

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.

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

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%

7:24:26

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

Adolescent

50% - 100%

9:15:33

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 ~222 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~15h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~19h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.

Don't skip imprinting - each successful imprint boosts the Corrupted Pteranodon'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.

Use the raising calculator to plan food requirements for raising Corrupted Pteranodon babies through all three growth stages. The Baby phase (0–10%) takes ~222 minutes and is the most hands-on, requiring direct feeding or a Maewing.

The multiplier feature helps plan large-scale Corrupted Pteranodon raises by totaling food across all babies. 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.

The Corrupted Pteranodon is a flying, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It belongs to the Variant category.

Its base Stamina of 150 gives it moderate endurance. Melee starts at 100% - solid damage output that scales with level-ups. At 210 base HP, the Corrupted Pteranodon is not particularly tanky. It carries 120 base Weight - modest carrying capacity.

The Corrupted Pteranodon is a wild creature that cannot be tamed through conventional methods. Defeating one in the wild grants 3 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.79 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
