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 Rockwell
The baby Rockwell takes approximately 3 days and 20 hours to fully mature at default rates - over an extremely long period, one of the longest in the game. During the baby phase (0–10%), hand-feed it directly. From 10% onward (juvenile), it can eat from a Feeding Trough.
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.
Maturation has three phases: 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.
Don't skip imprinting - each successful imprint boosts the Rockwell's stats, and hitting 100% grants a 30% combat bonus when the imprinter rides it. Keep various kibble types on hand, as imprint requests are randomized between cuddles, walks, and kibble feeding.
Planning a mass raise? The Rockwell raising calculator breaks down food needs per phase so nothing goes to waste. Expect ~556 minutes of active care during the Baby phase before it graduates to trough-feeding as a Juvenile.
Adjust the dino count to calculate food for multiple Rockwell babies at once - essential for batch breeding operations. Match your food choice to your play schedule - longer spoil timers mean less babysitting.
The Rockwell is one of ARK: Survival Ascended's boss creatures, fought in its own arena with a prepared team. Classified under the Boss group.
With 400 base Stamina, the Rockwell has good endurance. Dealing 100% base Melee Damage, the Rockwell brings solid damage output to the table. Starting at 42,000 Health, it's one of the toughest creatures in the game. Weight capacity starts at 3000, giving it an enormous weight pool.
As a tame, the Rockwell is a powerful boss creature encountered in a dedicated arena fight. Defeating one in the wild grants 3000 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0 Element plus 0 Element per level.
