Just so everyone knows, do NOT bring these things into the boss arena unridden. Just use them to heal your creatures after the fight. Their healing in the boss fight is pretty mediocre because they tend to waste all their food early on, and bringing multiple daeodons sacrificed damage from what could have been a few rexes instead. However, if you have more than 1 player ridden daeodons will be a lot less wasteful and the player on them can use a shotgun when they’re not healing.

For those wondering which meat is the best this is what I found out
Raw meat: 10 food. Cook meat: 25 food
Cook/raw prime meat: 50 food
Cook/raw mutton meat: 50 food
Raw fish: 5 food. Cook fish: 12 food
It can eat kibbles as well
Basic/simple/regular: 95 food
Superior and higher : 85 food
I've tested the number over and over it's accurate as I can get it. You're welcome to test it yourself as well but these are my results.
