The Aberrant Lystrosaurus reproduces by laying fertilized eggs after mating.Incubation temperature must stay between 24°C and 28°C - use Air Conditioners, Standing Torches, or Dimetrodons to maintain the range.At the correct temperature, the egg hatches in approximately 50 minutes.

The baby Aberrant Lystrosaurus takes approximately 15 hours and 25 minutes to fully mature at default rates - at a medium pace.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.

Raising a baby Aberrant Lystrosaurus involves three maturation phases: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~93 min and requires constant hand-feeding.Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~6h - it can eat from a Trough now.Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~8h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.

Don't skip imprinting - each successful imprint boosts the Aberrant Lystrosaurus's stats, and hitting 100% grants a 30% combat bonus when the imprinter rides it.Imprint requests include cuddling, walks, and specific kibble - check the wiki for which kibble to stockpile.

Planning a mass raise?The Aberrant Lystrosaurus raising calculator breaks down food needs per phase so nothing goes to waste.Expect ~93 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 Aberrant Lystrosaurus babies at once - essential for batch breeding operations.Match your food choice to your play schedule - longer spoil timers mean less babysitting.

Found throughout the ARKs, the Aberrant Lystrosaurus is a tamable, herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended.It falls within the Variant classification.

With 100% base Melee Damage, the Aberrant Lystrosaurus has respectable melee power.Health-wise, the Aberrant Lystrosaurus sits at 90 base, making it very frail.With 100 base Stamina, the Aberrant Lystrosaurus has tires quickly.Weight capacity starts at 90, giving it very limited carrying capacity.

This is a passive tame: no tranquilizers needed.Get close without startling it, then offer food from your last hotbar slot.Its preferred food is Rare Flower.

As a tame, the Aberrant Lystrosaurus earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster.It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 24°C and 28°C.Killing a wild Aberrant Lystrosaurus yields 0.5 base XP.It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.33 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
