Kibble (Spino Egg)

A kibble that left PC and console

The ARK Wiki lists Kibble (Spino Egg) as a Superior Kibble of ARK: Survival Evolved Mobile. PC and console ARK: Survival Evolved had it too, until the Homestead! Kibble Rework patch moved kibble to quality-based types: on PC with version 293.100, on Xbox with 784.13 and on Playstation with 533.14. The Nintendo Switch edition dropped it in its remastered version, from 601.0 on. Our database still keeps entries for it in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. Its description presents it as carefully balanced pet food for nearly any creature native to the island, with plant fibers for digestion and egg holding the mix together.

What it does in taming

Kibble is fed to creatures you are taming. The wiki explains that it tames more strongly than food such as berries or meat: the taming meter climbs faster and taming effectiveness falls less, leaving more bonus levels when the tame is done. On PC and console this kibble was once used to force-tame a Megalodon, and on Mobile it still is. Other creatures value it at only 66% of regular meat and berries, and the wiki advises against feeding it to them.

Crafting it on Mobile

On PC and console there is no longer any way to craft it. On ARK: Survival Evolved Mobile it is still made in a Cooking Pot or an Industrial Cooker, and the TEK Kibble Processor can produce it from any kibble adding up to a value of 10. Mobile also has a Super Kibble (Spino Egg), made by using a Super Fertilized Spino Egg in place of the normal Spino Egg; it tames creatures faster and with better taming effectiveness.

Weight and spoilage

A piece weighs 0.1 and they stack to 100, so a full stack weighs 10. It spoils after 72 hours, which is 3 days.
