Instead of laying eggs, the Brute Basilosaurus carries its young through a gestation period.Gestation takes approximately 8 hours at default rates.

The baby Brute Basilosaurus takes approximately 4 days and 19 hours to fully mature at default rates - over many real-world days, demanding serious time investment.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 ~694 min and requires constant hand-feeding.Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~46h - it can eat from a Trough now.Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~58h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.

Don't skip imprinting - each successful imprint boosts the Brute Basilosaurus'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 Brute Basilosaurus raising calculator breaks down food needs per phase so nothing goes to waste.Expect ~694 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 Brute Basilosaurus babies at once - essential for batch breeding operations.Match your food choice to your play schedule - longer spoil timers mean less babysitting.
