Breeding the Alpha X-Triceratops (Alpha) produces fertilized eggs that require careful temperature control. Incubation temperature must stay between 22°C and 28°C - use Air Conditioners, Standing Torches, or Dimetrodons to maintain the range. At the correct temperature, the egg hatches in approximately 2 hours and 29 minutes.

After hatching or birth, the baby Alpha X-Triceratops (Alpha) matures requiring significant patience, reaching adulthood in about 1 day and 22 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 Alpha X-Triceratops (Alpha) involves three maturation phases: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~278 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~19h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~23h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.

Don't skip imprinting - each successful imprint boosts the Alpha X-Triceratops (Alpha)'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 Alpha X-Triceratops (Alpha) babies through all three growth stages. The Baby phase (0–10%) takes ~278 minutes and is the most hands-on, requiring direct feeding or a Maewing.

The multiplier feature helps plan large-scale Alpha X-Triceratops (Alpha) raises by totaling food across all babies. Consider food spoilage when choosing what to feed: Kibble lasts days, while Raw Meat spoils in minutes.

The Alpha X-Triceratops (Alpha) is a herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended.

With 150 base Stamina, the Alpha X-Triceratops (Alpha) has decent staying power. Melee starts at 100% - decent hitting power that scales with level-ups. Starting at 3,500 Health, it's one of the toughest creatures in the game. A base Weight of 365 means a solid weight pool.

The Alpha X-Triceratops (Alpha) cannot be tamed and must be dealt with through combat or avoidance. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 22°C–28°C temperature window. A wild Alpha X-Triceratops (Alpha) is worth 4 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.23 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
