Ankylo Egg

An egg for Regular Kibble

Ankylo Eggs come from the Ankylosaurus, which drops them at random, in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. Survivors either eat them or turn them into kibble. The game's description: "Tremendously nourishing by itself, this egg provides regular nutritional value in many cooking recipes."

Kibble made from it

The egg is an ingredient of Regular Kibble. The ARK Wiki names the creatures tamed with that kibble, among them the Pteranodon, Carnotaurus, Stegosaurus, Sabertooth, Thorny Dragon, Velonasaur and Anglerfish, and it also suits creatures that take Basic Kibble or Simple Kibble.

Collecting eggs

Eggs can be gathered from wild or tamed Ankylo. Steal one from a wild female and she chases the thief relentlessly, and picking up an egg near wild Ankylo turns them hostile. A tamed female hands over her eggs without getting aggressive, and she lays more often with an Oviraptor nearby and a male Ankylo giving the mate boost.

Hatching

When two Ankylo mate, the egg they produce can hatch into a baby. The wiki lists:

• a hatching time of 2h 37m 52.927s, which an Egg Incubator set to the best temperature can cut by up to 20%
• a temperature between 16 and 20 °C (61 to 68 °F); outside it the egg loses health
• 18h to 2d before a female can lay again

Fertilized variants exist as well: the Fertilized Ankylo Egg, the Fertilized Aberrant Ankylo Egg and the Fertilized X-Ankylo Egg.

Weight and spoiling

An egg weighs 5 and stacks to 100, 500 for a full stack. The ARK Wiki gives its spoil time as 28800 seconds. Our records list it on 9 maps, among them The Island, Aberration, The Center and Valguero.
