Megalania Egg — Detailed Guide
Where Megalania Eggs come from
The Megalania Egg appears in both ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. The ARK Wiki says
Megalania drop these eggs at random, and our records also list the
Aberrant Megalania as a source. Take care when collecting one: picking up an egg with wild Megalania around turns them hostile, and they will go after you. The in-game text: "Tremendously nourishing by itself, this egg provides superior nutritional value in many cooking recipes."
Eating it or making kibble
Survivors can eat it or turn it into
Superior Kibble. On the wiki, that kibble tames creatures such as the
Allosaurus,
Megalodon,
Direwolf,
Mammoth,
Argentavis,
Dire Bear and
Woolly Rhino, plus any creature that takes Simple, Basic or
Regular Kibble.
Hatching figures from the wiki
When two Megalania mate, the egg they produce can hatch into a baby Megalania; the wiki names the Fertilized Megalania Egg and the Fertilized Aberrant Megalania Egg as variants. It gives a hatch time of 1h 59m 59.424s and says the egg needs between 29 and 35 °C (84 to 95 °F), losing health outside that range. An
Egg Incubator set to the best temperature can shorten incubation by up to 20%. A female needs between 18h and 2d before she can lay again.
Weight and spoiling
Each egg weighs 7 and they stack to 100, so a full stack weighs 700. An egg spoils after 192 hours (8 days). Our records list it on 14 maps, including The Island, Ragnarok, Genesis Part 2 and Fjordur.
