Tips & Strategies
Three easy and simple steps for babies
1. Bash it up
2. Feed it yummy berries
3. Keep breeding until Ark 2 comes out in 2030
Try landing body shots, because they have such low health but take 3x to headshots so you could accidentally kill them
Up this for new players!
I hatched triplets, two died within seconds, one survived and she is the chosen one

Mabey it should be able to attack
I recommend breeding these guys for size as soon as possible. They unlock cool new abilities as they get bigger!
Size 1.55: now drops dodo feathers off its back, used for crafting items like sail plume, dodo decimater, and dodo cultivator
Size 3.00: you can now ride them without saddles, and equip dodo decimater and dodo cultivator.
How to breed for size:
Select biggest male and biggest female dodo
Build a 1x1 pen (doesn’t need roof)
Put the dodos in the pen
Enable wandering on both dodos (tap skull icon in top left corner)
Wait
Pick up fertile dodo egg
Make campfires (at least 2)
Fuel campfires (at least 20 fuel per fire)
Light campfires
Drop egg next to (not on) campfires
Wait for egg to hatch
Claim baby (skull Icon)
Feed baby (they eat a lot)
Wait for baby to grow up
The new dodo will be anywhere in between his parents sizes, most likely on the edge, with slight variation (size 1.00 and size 1.50 would have a baby of size range 0.95-1.55, most likely bigger than both parents)
Other breeding facts:
Mating bar: at 100%, a fertile egg will be laid
Maturation bar: at 100% it will progress to next stage of growth. (Baby, juvenile, adolescent, adult)
Imprinting bar: increases strength when working for you (whistling, riding)
Wants ____ in __:__ giving it what it wants increases imprinting
Fun fact: did you know, you can get twins and triplets from eggs? The chances of this happening vary by species.
Hope you find this helpful!

Every new player should tame as many of these as they can they can one shot all bosses 😏
Originally one of the bosses was going to be a massive bronto sized dodo, I wonder why it changed to a prickly green spider queen?
If you see a pack run 🦤

The things you need to tame a dodo
1) Flyer (recommending an argy).
2)4-5 dinosaur metal gateways.
31-2 large bear traps.
4)10x soothing balm if your playing on mobile.
5) Your KO weapon (most recommended are ascendant longneck rifle or ascendant crossbow).
6) Your KO ammo (bring a decent amount).
7) Taming food of your choice (most recommended is raw prime meat or kibble if you can).
8) Decent amount of narcotics or bio toxin.
FIND DODO: dodo usually spawn on beaches.
SET YOUR TRAP: take 3 of your metal gateways and make this shape _ then put a large bear trap or 2 in the middle. It's easier if you build the trap on flat ground.
TRAP THE DODO: get the dodo to follow you and make it go inside the trap, then make sure it's caught in the bear trap. When it's stuck in the bear trap go behind it and complete the trap with another gateway. The final shape of the trap looks like a Trapezoidal.
KO THE DODO: even a low level giga has a lot of torpor and it drops fast so keep shooting no matter what. It's recommended for a tribe-mate to help you.
START FEEDING: put the food in the dodo inventory and keep an eye on it's torpor.
PLEASE HELP ME THERE IS A DODO OUTSIDE MY BASE IT KILLED ALL MY RAPTORS WHAT DO I DOOOOOOOO
On mobile these can be bred to get insane sizes, like huge, bigger than an Allosaurus and they have 8 abilities unlocked at certain sizes. I only know 2 abilities, one is the dodo gains an immense amount of speed and charges towards the target. The other that I know of is that it jumps up and slams into the ground which stuns surrounding enemies. Do not underestimate the potential that these have on mobile, they can become beasts.
A day interviewing Dinos: dodo
The dodo, sometimes called "the ancient chicken" was a animal that first appeared in 1507 and went extinct in 1681. One of the most popular quotes for the dodo is "Dodo Tossing, Sport of Champions!" You can tame them with plants and kibble, you can't ride them, but they can ride you on your shoulder and dodos are breed-able. They are found in the beach, hill, and forest biome. Dodos are an easy food source for players and dinosaurs. In Ark Survival Mobile, they will occasionally attack if they are attacked or their egg is stolen. Dodos occasionally get stuck on driftwood on the beach. Dodos have a big variety of colors, they have 20 colors that can be found on their body, 6 on their face, 10 on their beak, 10 on their forehead, neck and feet, 21 on their head, and 11 on their wings. In mobile, they drop a dodo trophy, and a dodo feather if the dodo is size 1.56x or bigger. In primitive, they drop fresh poultry, hide, and feathers, in the other versions, they drop raw meat and hide. The best places to find dodos are on the beach, the second best in the forest, and third, the hills of the island. The fastest food to tame a dodo is with one basic kibble, for a level one it takes 22 seconds, all other food options take 48 seconds or more. To tame a level 30, it takes one basic kibble and it takes 22 seconds. A 60 requires 2 of them and it will take 43 seconds. A 90 requires 2 basic kibble and it will take 43 seconds. A 120 takes 2 of the basic and will take 43 seconds. And 150 will take 3 basic kibble and that will take 1 minute and 4 seconds. A dodo's peck deals 5 damage. Hitting a dodo on the head will do triple the damage than the body, causing the dodo to be killed quickly. To kill dodos use a spear, a hit on the head is a one hit kill. Anything as strong or as stronger as a triceratops can kill a dodo in one hit. I recommend not using your spears. A dodo wouldn't be considered a threat. It's predators are the apex predators, dimetrodon, archaeopteryx, lunar biome creatures, amphibious creatures, compies, bosses, and corrupted creatures. A dodo is a worthy tame, they can provide easier gameplay further on in the game than other people who don't have at least one dodo. Some tribes have dodo farms. A dodo farm is when players put their tamed dodos into an enclosed area, then collect their eggs. Another way to get wild dodo eggs is to make a open roofed pen wood quality and above, collect as many females as possible (one male can speed up the process), then drop a tamed oviraptor in the pen that's set to wander. A good way to get a oviraptor is to steal their eggs when both the female and male aren't watching. Dodos are a easy way to get hide for beginners. A C4 can be attached to dodos, that are set to wander, and their air drop it into a enemy tribe's base. Dodos move very fast in the water compared to other land creatures. Setting a dodo to aggressive outside your base makes a good alarm. Dodos are a easy distraction when there is a carnivore outside your base. Dodos can hold a decent amount of items in their inventory, making them living storage. In ARK: Fear Evolved, there is a zombie variant of the dodo that will attack the player. Dodos size 0.8x and smaller cannot be mounted on the player's shoulder. Dodos size 2.4x size and bigger can be ridden. The max dodo size is 3.5x.
I will start a dodo army and rage war on all brontos after they killed my para. With the right amount of dodos anything is possible.
To tame a dodo you need a couple berries and a wooden club. You knock it unconscious and put the berries in its inventory! Ta-da! A dodo!
