Tips & Strategies
if you have access to a decent amount of metal and want to tame any level tickle chicken rather easily, follow this method. cratt 3 metal billboards and a large bear trap. place the bear trap and lure him into it, when he is trapped surround him in metal billboards in a triangle shape. he is now trapped and can't damage the billboards (from my experience) then you start tranqing and he'll be down in no time.
When I was a noob I approached one of these to read the name and look it up. I approached very, very slowly to judge whether it was hostile or not. When I reached it, I was surprised, but glad that it wasn’t going to attack me. Just as I got close enough to read the name, I’m suddenly thrown back. I close the app and use the app preview thing to read the name, then look it up. I haven’t stopped kicking myself for walking up to one of the strongest hostiles in the game
To fight it you need the high ground
This monster will chase you if you get too close! So be sure to have a fast way out or ranged weaponry. (It has a fairly decent aggro range, too!)
Edward scissor hands...
Me when I encounter it for the first time: wat Dat?
Me now: OH SHI-
This things torpor drain is out of this world high
To the npc who posted a awful taming method but somehow got over 1100 likes, a theri requires 275 narcotics per hour and a high level will be a 8 hour tame using mejoberries, no one cares that you play with 20x taming and dino lvl cap 10, on official settings a lvl 150 must be tamed with the appropriate amount of exceptional kibble, with a heavy stockpile of narcotics, must be trapped while knocking out or it will rupture your guts. Pls do not read npc posted tips unless you play with their settings...
They are hard to tame but it’s worth it all I did is go on a high land high enough so it won’t hit ya then over load it with Trang arrows recommend crossbow not bow and they eat berrys even tho they sound like they eat meat THEY DONT REMEMBER THIS!!!
The tickle chicken, a fearsome terror of the beaches. This horrifying creature’s diet consists of berries and probably your nightmares. If you encounter this loathsome monster in the wild then you should run as fast as possible in the opposite direction. If it attempts to tickle you try to lose it in a dense forest. If you do not have access to any dense forests then try outrunning any friends you may have with you, as it stops to rip them apart you can easily get out of sight. If you do not have any friends or forests with you, try to convince it to jump off a cliff. This is possible do to the fact that the tickle chicken will always run in a straight line towards you, however this may not work in Ark 2 do to likely AI improvements.
If theri eat berri then why theri eat me):

I've got this beautiful green Theri named Forest and just tamed her by knocking her out with tranq arrows and a crossbow I mostly shot her in the butt if the torpor is almost gone and she's pretty good a lvl 101 totally worth it if u have enough tranq arrows.
How to survive a Therizino encounter
1. Don’t encounter it in the first place.
Don't make the same mistake i did. I was taming a therizinosaurus and i left it alone for 30 seconds for water. When i come back, a pack of raptors came in and murdered him. WATCH YOUR TAMES PLEASE I FEEL SO SAD RIGHT NOW
