Planning a mass raise? The Purlovia raising calculator breaks down food needs per phase so nothing goes to waste. Expect ~292 minutes of active care during the Baby phase before it graduates to trough-feeding as a Juvenile.
Adjust the dino count to calculate food for multiple Purlovia babies at once - essential for batch breeding operations. Match your food choice to your play schedule - longer spoil timers mean less babysitting.

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.
Instead of laying eggs, the Purlovia carries its young through a gestation period. Gestation takes approximately 4 hours and 10 minutes at default rates.
After hatching or birth, the baby Purlovia matures slowly, reaching adulthood in about 2 days at 1x maturation. Hand-feeding is required until 10% maturation. After that, a Feeding Trough handles the rest.
Mutations can add +2 levels to any stat and change colors. Stacking mutations across generations is the key to min-maxed breeding lines. Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.
Raising a baby 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 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.
The Purlovia is a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It falls within the Support classification.
The Purlovia has 275 base Health - relatively fragile. Melee starts at 100% - respectable melee power that scales with level-ups. Its base Stamina of 300 gives it decent staying power. It carries 400 base Weight - generous inventory space.
The Purlovia is a knockout tame: apply enough torpor to knock it out, then place food in its inventory. Regular Kibble is the most effective food for taming, offering the highest affinity per feeding.
As a tame, the Purlovia earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. It gives live birth after a gestation period, making breeding straightforward. Killing a wild Purlovia yields 6 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.32 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
