Baby: The hatched dinosaur, now a baby, needs constant attention and food placed directly in its inventory to survive, or a nearby Maewing to take care of its needs.

During the Baby phase (0-10%), you must hand-feed or use a Maewing to nurse. From Juvenile (10%+), dinos can eat from a Feeding Trough on their own. Use Preserving Salt in troughs to double spoil times.
More about breeding the Lost Ossidon
Instead of laying eggs, the Lost Ossidon carries its young through a gestation period. Gestation takes approximately 7 hours and 56 minutes at default rates.
After hatching or birth, the baby Lost Ossidon matures over many real-world days, demanding serious time investment, reaching adulthood in about 3 days and 20 hours at 1x maturation. Hand-feeding is required until 10% maturation. After that, a Feeding Trough handles the rest.
Mutations can add +2 levels to any stat and change colors. Stacking mutations across generations is the key to min-maxed breeding lines. Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.
The Lost Ossidon's growth progresses through three stages: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~556 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~37h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~46h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.
Imprinting during maturation provides permanent stat bonuses. At 100% imprint, the Lost Ossidon gains 30% bonus damage and resistance when ridden by the imprinter. Keep various kibble types on hand, as imprint requests are randomized between cuddles, walks, and kibble feeding.
Planning a mass raise? The Lost Ossidon raising calculator breaks down food needs per phase so nothing goes to waste. The Baby phase (0–10%) takes ~556 minutes and is the most hands-on, requiring direct feeding or a Maewing.
Raising multiple Lost Ossidon simultaneously? Set the dino count and the calculator scales food requirements automatically. Match your food choice to your play schedule - longer spoil timers mean less babysitting.
The Lost Ossidon, a carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is well-known across multiple maps. It belongs to the Variant category.
Its base Stamina of 420 gives it solid stamina reserves. With 100% base Melee Damage, the Lost Ossidon has solid damage output. Starting at 1,430 Health, it's among the tougher creatures. A base Weight of 500 means massive inventory space.
The Lost Ossidon roams the ARK as a wild, untamable creature. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. A wild Lost Ossidon is worth 60 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.89 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
