Grand Tortugar Egg — Detailed Guide
The egg of the Grand Tortugar
The Grand Tortugar Egg comes from the 
Grand Tortugar on Astraeos in ARK: Survival Ascended. It carries the in-game line "Tremendously nourishing by itself, this egg provides exceptional nutritional value in many cooking recipes." Survivors can collect it from wild or tamed Grand Tortugars, and the ARK Wiki says the creatures drop eggs at random. The wiki also lists a fertilized variant, the Fertilized Grand Tortugar Egg.
Collecting and hatching
Taking an egg near wild Grand Tortugars turns them hostile, and the wiki warns that a robbed wild mother will keep chasing the thief. A tamed female avoids the problem: her eggs can be picked up without her becoming aggressive. Keeping a male Grand Tortugar near her for the Mate Boost, plus an 
Oviraptor nearby, makes her lay more often. When two Grand Tortugars mate, the egg they produce hatches into a baby Grand Tortugar.
Weight and spoiling
Our records give the egg a weight of 10 and a stack size of 100, which puts a full stack at 1000. Left alone it spoils after 8 days (192 hours).
