Okay, if your going to get an egg, you only need :

Pteranodon with good health and melee, just in case if you get latched onto.

Torches, better be prepared so you don’t end up like me all the time.

Bait, just in case.

Go to chalk hills with your ptera and look for a nest, if you find one that has many near it, do not go there. I usually look for 1 or 2 near a nest because I can kill them. If the only one there is an alpha, try and lead it away with any high lvl thing you have. Next is to quickly go down and snatch it up, if it’s a low level don’t worry, these things in a pack at low lvls can shred through things with ease. Once you’ve gotten your egg, place 10 - 20 torches based on what your temperature is. When it hatches, put normal meat into it and imprint it. Have fun grabbing one!
