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 Sabertooth
The Lost Sabertooth gives live birth after mating, skipping the egg-incubation step entirely. Gestation takes approximately 4 hours and 12 minutes at default rates.
Full maturation from baby to adult takes ~2 days (1x rate), progressing requiring significant patience. Hand-feeding is required until 10% maturation. After that, a Feeding Trough handles the rest.
Each baby inherits stats from both parents with a chance of mutation - +2 wild levels to a random stat plus a color change. Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.
Raising a baby Lost Sabertooth involves three maturation phases: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~292 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~19h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~24h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.
Imprinting during maturation provides permanent stat bonuses. At 100% imprint, the Lost Sabertooth gains 30% bonus damage and resistance when ridden by the imprinter. You'll be asked to cuddle, walk, or feed specific kibble at regular intervals during maturation.
The raising calculator above shows exactly how much food you need for each maturation phase of the Lost Sabertooth. Budget ~292 minutes for the Baby phase - this is when hand-feeding or Maewing nursing is mandatory.
Raising multiple Lost Sabertooth simultaneously? Set the dino count and the calculator scales food requirements automatically. Different food types have different spoil timers - factor that into which food you stockpile.
The Lost Sabertooth, a carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is a common sight across multiple maps. Classified under the Variant group.
With 100% base Melee Damage, the Lost Sabertooth has respectable melee power. The Lost Sabertooth has 250 base Health - on the squishy side. Stamina sits at 200 base, providing decent staying power. Weight capacity starts at 200, giving it a reasonable inventory size.
The Lost Sabertooth cannot be tamed and must be dealt with through combat or avoidance. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. Killing a wild Lost Sabertooth yields 5 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.48 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
