Wild Elderclaw egg tending timers and info while using shovel.

-first you need the 6 tend items: Sap, Giant bee Honey, black pearls, bio toxin, ammonite bile, and leech blood

-It took 19 total tends to pop. No matter lvl ( i used 15, 90, 130)

-Shovel does effect tend timer ( took timer from 5 mins to 4:07 sec)

-First 5 tends is 4:07 min then it goes mildling

-2 after mildling is no timer then 1 at 4:07 min.

-2 after that double tend time to around 8:30 min, then goes to growthling.

-Next 3 after going growthling is no timer.

-Then last 1 was 3 min timer

- Total time was 45 mins with shovel and 300% greenhouse effect

Traits do pop out of eggs on wild baby eggs. And u can see stat of the wild lvl stat on the plant.

When grown if you dont miss any timers the lvl will come out like any hand feed 100% tame effectiveness. Like my 130 came out 195. As of right now x2 event does not effect wild eggs

I'd recommend snatching a baby for your first elderclaw. Taming one the "legit" way involves killing an adult, planting the seed it drops in a greenhouse, feeding it crazy things like biotoxin and ammonite bile, then raising the hatched cub like a regular baby. The reason I recommend stealing a baby for your first tame is because an adult Elderclaw can spawn in the six different craved foods of the seed version via its corpse blossom ability.

For those playing on Xbox and you are trying to feed the freshly planted seedling 'baby' whatever its tending 'craving item' is:

Face the seedling, hold down the Y button to access a radial dial and then at the top of the radial is the item it wants to be fed. As long as you have it in your inventory, click on the item to feed it, and it'll remove it from your inventory.

When I looked at the seedling, it showed what it wanted to be fed, but it did not say what button to press to feed it, which is dumb. I couldn't find this info anywhere, and discovered this in a last minute panic trying to feed it.

Idk if anyone posted this but I will say it, if u find a mother and a baby NO KILL IT THE BABU only kill mother. especially if u are getting one first time, use ur elderclaw that u grew to get the materials required for the seed and taming. U do this by corpse blossoms to harvest them use ur vine burst move to harvest have a blessed day anyone who reads this.
