R-Dilophosaur Egg & Breeding Calculator

Breeding the R-Dilophosaur produces fertilized eggs that require careful temperature control. Incubation temperature must stay between 28°C and 32°C - use Air Conditioners, Standing Torches, or Dimetrodons to maintain the range. At the correct temperature, the egg hatches in approximately 1 hour and 8 minutes.

After hatching or birth, the baby R-Dilophosaur matures over the course of several hours, reaching adulthood in about 21 hours and 2 minutes 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 dino is inside an egg, needing specific conditions to incubate and hatch. The ideal temperature range is 28 - 32 °C.

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%

4:12:31

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

Adolescent

50% - 100%

5:15:39

The dinosaur reaches the adolescent stage, becoming more independent and able to follow you while continuing to grow toward full maturity.

The R-Dilophosaur's growth progresses through three stages: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~126 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~8h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~11h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.

Imprint bonuses are significant: a fully imprinted R-Dilophosaur gains 30% extra damage and damage resistance with its imprinter mounted. 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 R-Dilophosaur babies through all three growth stages. The Baby phase (0–10%) takes ~126 minutes and is the most hands-on, requiring direct feeding or a Maewing.

The multiplier feature helps plan large-scale R-Dilophosaur 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 R-Dilophosaur, a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is a notable presence across multiple maps. Classified under the Variant group.

The R-Dilophosaur has 126 base Health - glass-cannon fragile. With 105% base Melee Damage, the R-Dilophosaur has decent hitting power. Stamina sits at 100 base, providing low stamina reserves. It carries 45 base Weight - minimal inventory space.

Taming the R-Dilophosaur requires rendering it unconscious first - use Tranq Arrows, Darts, or Shocking Tranq Darts to apply torpor. Basic Kibble is the most effective food for taming, offering the highest affinity per feeding.

After taming, the R-Dilophosaur is valued for its harvesting efficiency, collecting key resources faster than most tools. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 28°C and 32°C. Killing a wild R-Dilophosaur yields 1 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.12 Element plus 0 Element per level.
