Ceratosaurus Egg

Where Ceratosaurus Eggs come from

The Ceratosaurus Egg is laid by the Ceratosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended, and the ARK Wiki dates it to version 43.8. Wild Ceratosaurus drop these eggs at random, and tamed ones can be collected from as well. Taking an egg while wild Ceratosaurus are nearby turns them hostile, and a wild mother will keep chasing the survivor who took it. A tamed female does not react that way, and she lays more frequently with an Oviraptor nearby and a male Ceratosaurus present for the Mate Boost.

Food, kibble and hatching

The game describes it this way: "Tremendously nourishing by itself, this egg provides superior nutritional value in many cooking recipes." It can be eaten, or used for Extraordinary Kibble, which the wiki says is used to tame creatures such as the Yutyrannus, Thylacoleo, Griffin, Megalania and the Ceratosaurus itself. Anything that eats Exceptional, Superior, Regular, Simple or Basic Kibble accepts Extraordinary Kibble too. When two Ceratosaurus mate, the egg that results can hatch into a baby Ceratosaurus, and an Egg Incubator set to the best temperature can shorten incubation by up to 20%. The wiki also lists a Fertilized Ceratosaurus Egg as a variant.

Weight, stack and spoil time

Each egg weighs 15 and stacks to 100, putting a full stack at 1500. It spoils after 691200 seconds, or 192 hours (8 days). Our records list it on 8 maps: The Island, The Center, Scorched Earth, Extinction, Ragnarok, Valguero, Astraeos and Lost Colony.
