Phoenix Egg

An egg from the Phoenix

Phoenixes drop this egg, and in ARK: Survival Ascended, where the drop is random, it serves as food and as an ingredient for kibble. The ASA item text describes it this way: "Tremendously nourishing by itself, this egg provides superior nutritional value in many cooking recipes." The egg is also recorded for ARK: Survival Evolved, where its item text instead links it to Super Heat. The ARK Wiki also names a fertilized variant, the Fertilized Phoenix Egg.

Superior Kibble from Phoenix eggs

In ASA, besides being eaten, the egg is used to make Superior Kibble. The ARK Wiki lists that kibble for taming creatures such as the Argentavis, Megalodon, Snow Owl, Daeodon, Paraceratherium and Xiphactinus, and for anything else that eats Basic, Simple or Regular Kibble.

Breeding and collecting

In ASA, two Phoenixes that mate produce an egg that hatches into a baby Phoenix. A tamed female lays eggs you can collect, and she lays more often when a male Phoenix gives her the Mate Boost and an Oviraptor is nearby. Be careful around wild Phoenixes: taking an egg while they are present makes them hostile, and they attack. Kept in an Egg Incubator at its ideal temperature, the egg's incubation time can drop by up to 20%, according to the ARK Wiki.

Weight and spoilage

An egg weighs 12 and they stack to 100, so a full stack weighs 1200. It spoils after 8 days (192 hours). Our records place it on Scorched Earth and Astraeos.
