Player-written tips for Keratin in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

Kill the gaint octopus and harvest it with metal spike it give tons of keratin

Ankylosauruses are a great source of Keratin after the Early game(mid to late game)

On fjordur in a small mountain cave use a wyvern to harvest the bones with wing flap and boom 1000s of chitin

To not kill the turtles and still get keratin kill tickle chickens or pachys.:):):):):):)

On ab there is a spot that is by the surface (you wont die to the sun) where you can go with a mining drill (or pickaxe) and gather the bones on the ground, ive seen people get 10,000 in one ark day, even less

Go to the surface entrances on aberration with a minig drill and harvest the bones

Carbonemys will drop a decent amount of these you an find them in swaps commonly

Deathworms drop like 300+ keratin and aren’t that hard to kill. Alpha deathworms I believe drop more but I haven’t tested that yet

Also you don’t need this inferior material, just tame a megatherium and become the insect anti-Christ!

Thylas give really good keratin jus build a thyla trap then lure low levels into trap and kill they give like 30 keratin at high levels

A tip to get a lot of keratin early game is to go around with a crossbow and kill Carbonemys. They give between 5-20 keratin a piece and are very easy to kill.

Go to the blue zone surface entrance on aberration and farm the bones with a mining drill,you will get black box within 10seconds

Chitin is way easier to get than keratin, however, if you want the challange and go for keratin on mobile, get a spino and circle the beachs for carbos and trikes and other things that drop keratin. Tested in SP.

If you are in the Arctic, tame a dire wolf or sabertooth and bola a megaloceros. They never fight back, and provide a decent source of keritin if you kill a bunch.
