Archelon Egg

An egg from the Archelon

Archelons, wild or tamed, drop this egg at random in ARK: Survival Ascended. Survivors can eat it as it is or use it as a kibble ingredient. The game's description reads: "Tremendously nourishing by itself, this egg provides regular nutritional value in many cooking recipes."

Regular Kibble and the creatures it tames

According to the ARK Wiki, the egg goes into Regular Kibble. That kibble is listed for taming a long line of creatures; among them are the Stegosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Carnotaurus, Baryonyx, Sabertooth, Pteranodon, Velonasaur and Thorny Dragon.

Collecting eggs without a fight

Taking an egg while wild Archelons are nearby makes them hostile, and they attack the survivor who grabbed it. A tamed female changes that: her eggs can be picked up without her turning aggressive. Keeping a male Archelon close for the Mate Boost, plus an Oviraptor nearby, makes her lay more often.

Weight, spoiling and maps

Each egg weighs 6 and stacks to 100, so a full stack weighs 600. The ARK Wiki gives a spoil time of 28800 seconds. Our records place the egg on 5 maps: Valguero, The Island, Ragnarok, The Center and Astraeos. The wiki also lists two variants, the Fertilized Archelon Egg and the Fertilized X-Archelon Egg.
