Kibble (Tapejara Egg) — Detailed Guide
A kibble from before the rework
Kibble (Tapejara Egg) comes from the kibble system that ARK: Survival Evolved used before its kibble rework. On PC and consoles it stayed in the game until the Homestead! Kibble Rework patch (293.100 on PC), which moved kibble to quality-based types, and the Nintendo Switch edition dropped it in its remastered version from 601.0. The ARK Wiki now files it as a 
Superior Kibble of ARK: Survival Evolved Mobile. Its in-game text presents it as balanced pet food built from protein, plant fibers and egg, which humans have trouble digesting.
Its role in taming
Kibble is fed to a creature you are taming. Compared with Berries or Meat, it raises the taming meter faster and lowers Taming Effectiveness less, which leads to more bonus levels once the tame is done. On PC and console this kibble was once used to force-tame a 
Kaprosuchus, and on Mobile it still is. For any other creature the wiki values it at only 66% of regular Meat and Berries and advises against using it.
Crafting it today
On PC and console the kibble can no longer be crafted by any means. On Mobile it is cooked in a 
Cooking Pot or an 
Industrial Cooker, and a TEK Kibble Processor can make it from any kibble that adds up to a value of 10. Mobile also has Super Kibble (Tapejara Egg), cooked with a Super Fertilized Tapejara Egg in place of the regular 
Tapejara Egg; it tames creatures faster and with better taming effectiveness.
Weight and spoilage
A piece weighs 0.1 and stacks to 100, so a full stack weighs 10. It spoils after 72 hours, which is 3 days.
