Yutyrannus Egg

Where Yutyrannus Eggs come from

The Yutyrannus Egg is dropped at random by the Yutyrannus in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. Its description promises a lot: "Tremendously nourishing by itself, this egg provides extraordinary nutritional value in many cooking recipes." Be careful when collecting one: the wiki warns that taking an egg near wild Yutyrannus makes them hostile, and they will go after the survivor who picked it up.

Eating it or making kibble

The egg can be eaten, or turned into Extraordinary Kibble. The wiki names that kibble for taming the Yutyrannus itself and creatures such as the Megalania, Griffin, Thylacoleo, Cerberax and Shastasaurus. It also suits any creature that eats Exceptional, Superior, Regular, Simple or Basic Kibble.

Hatching a baby

An egg that comes from two mated Yutyrannus can be hatched into a baby. It needs between 32 and 34 °C (90 to 93 °F); outside that range it starts losing health. Hatching takes 4h 59m 58.561s, and an Egg Incubator set to the best temperature can shorten that by up to 20%. After laying, a female needs between 18h and 2d before she can produce another egg. The wiki lists the Fertilized Yutyrannus Egg and the Fertilized X-Yutyrannus Egg as variants.

Weight and spoiling

Each egg weighs 15 and they stack to 100, so a full stack weighs 1500. It spoils after 192 hours (8 days). Our records list it on 8 maps, among them The Island, Ragnarok, Astraeos and Lost Colony.
