Breeding the Corrupted Rock Drake produces fertilized eggs that require careful temperature control. Incubation temperature must stay between -90°C and -80°C - use Air Conditioners, Standing Torches, or Dimetrodons to maintain the range. At the correct temperature, the egg hatches in approximately 6 hours and 14 minutes.
After hatching or birth, the baby Corrupted Rock Drake matures over many real-world days, demanding serious time investment, reaching adulthood in about 3 days and 20 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.
Raising a baby Corrupted Rock Drake involves three maturation 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 Corrupted Rock Drake'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.

Use the raising calculator to plan food requirements for raising Corrupted Rock Drake babies through all three growth stages. The Baby phase (0–10%) takes ~556 minutes and is the most hands-on, requiring direct feeding or a Maewing.
The multiplier feature helps plan large-scale Corrupted Rock Drake 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 Rock Drake is a carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. Classified under the Variant group.
Its base Stamina of 450 gives it respectable staying power. Melee starts at 100% - decent hitting power that scales with level-ups. The Corrupted Rock Drake has 1,950 base Health - among the tougher creatures. Weight capacity starts at 400, giving it generous inventory space.
The Corrupted Rock Drake cannot be tamed and must be dealt with through combat or avoidance. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a -90°C–-80°C temperature window. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.82 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
