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.
Meer over fokken: X-Ichthyosaurus
The X-Ichthyosaurus gives live birth after mating, skipping the egg-incubation step entirely. Gestation takes approximately 8 hours at default rates.
Full maturation from baby to adult takes ~2 days and 9 hours (1x rate), progressing over a lengthy period. 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.
The X-Ichthyosaurus's growth progresses through three stages: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~347 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~23h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~29h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.
Imprint bonuses are significant: a fully imprinted X-Ichthyosaurus gains 30% extra damage and damage resistance with its imprinter mounted. Imprint requests include cuddling, walks, and specific kibble - check the wiki for which kibble to stockpile.
The raising calculator above shows exactly how much food you need for each maturation phase of the X-Ichthyosaurus. Budget ~347 minutes for the Baby phase - this is when hand-feeding or Maewing nursing is mandatory.
Raising multiple X-Ichthyosaurus 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.
ARK: Survival Ascended features the X-Ichthyosaurus as a tamable, aquatic, carnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. It falls within the Variant classification.
Its base Stamina of 300 gives it average stamina. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it solid damage output. Starting at 275 Health, it's not particularly tanky. Weight capacity starts at 250, giving it good carrying capacity.
To tame the X-Ichthyosaurus, you need to knock it unconscious using torpor weapons, then feed it while it's down. Feed it Simple Kibble for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.
After taming, the X-Ichthyosaurus provides safe and efficient underwater traversal with good utility. It gives live birth after a gestation period, making breeding straightforward. A wild X-Ichthyosaurus is worth 4 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.66 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
