The Rift Mosasaurus gives live birth after mating, skipping the egg-incubation step entirely.Gestation takes approximately 8 hours at default rates.

The baby Rift Mosasaurus takes approximately 7 days and 17 hours to fully mature at default rates - at a glacially slow pace - plan for a multi-day commitment.The most labor-intensive part is the baby phase (0–10% maturation) when it can't use a Feeding Trough yet.

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 Rift Mosasaurus's growth progresses through three stages: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~1111 min and requires constant hand-feeding.Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~74h - it can eat from a Trough now.Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~93h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.

Imprint bonuses are significant: a fully imprinted Rift Mosasaurus 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 Rift Mosasaurus.Expect ~1111 minutes of active care during the Baby phase before it graduates to trough-feeding as a Juvenile.

The multiplier feature helps plan large-scale Rift Mosasaurus raises by totaling food across all babies.Different food types have different spoil timers - factor that into which food you stockpile.
