The Malfunctioned Tek Triceratops reproduces by laying fertilized eggs after mating.Incubation temperature must stay between 22°C and 28°C - use Air Conditioners, Standing Torches, or Dimetrodons to maintain the range.At the correct temperature, the egg hatches in approximately 2 hours and 29 minutes.

The baby Malfunctioned Tek Triceratops takes approximately 1 day and 22 hours to fully mature at default rates - slowly.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.

The Malfunctioned Tek Triceratops's growth progresses through three stages: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~278 min and requires constant hand-feeding.Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~19h - it can eat from a Trough now.Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~23h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.

Imprinting during maturation provides permanent stat bonuses.At 100% imprint, the Malfunctioned Tek Triceratops 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 Malfunctioned Tek Triceratops raising calculator breaks down food needs per phase so nothing goes to waste.Expect ~278 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 Malfunctioned Tek Triceratops babies at once - essential for batch breeding operations.Match your food choice to your play schedule - longer spoil timers mean less babysitting.

The Malfunctioned Tek Triceratops, a herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is a common sight across multiple maps.It falls within the Variant classification.

With 375 base Health, the Malfunctioned Tek Triceratops is reasonably durable.Dealing 100% base Melee Damage, the Malfunctioned Tek Triceratops brings respectable melee power to the table.Stamina sits at 150 base, providing average stamina.A base Weight of 365 means a solid weight pool.

The Malfunctioned Tek Triceratops roams the ARK as a wild, untamable creature.It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 22°C and 28°C.Killing a wild Malfunctioned Tek Triceratops yields 4 base XP.It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.23 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
