About 4 to 6 nests on fjordour around 44, 74. Up so other people can see
Deinonychus: all you need to know
The deinonychus is a raptor-like carnivore best used in packs of at least 3. They do a bleed effect that can stack, so having multiple deinonychus will be no less than deadly to any enemies. You can’t actually tame a deinonychus in the wild due to their high intelligence and the strong bond they have with their pack. To acquire a deinonychus you must steal a fertile egg from one of their nests. It is best to distract the pack than to take it head on. The danger of this feat is being swarmed by a pack, so one should stay as far as possible from a actual wild deinonychus. If need be, to kill a deinonychus it is best to use a strong ranged weapon. You can use a sword or a powerful mount as well, but it is best to avoid hand-to-claw combat. Thank you for reading and I hope you have a nice day. ^ for more

Finally are on another map, near the hexagonal stone cliffs you can find these miniature allos and their nests. This map for me is currently easier to grab than valguero simply because of the amount of other dinos in the area. THANK YOU FJORDUR
Are strong in packs, do a bleed effect and can latch onto surfaces, it is tamed by stealing its eggs and raising them, it can take 9 to 10 standing torches. Eggs are found in the whites cliffs area ONLY on the valguero map. Like if helpful
Tame a bird and carry something as you fly over the nest to lure them away like an Ankylo. Drop the bait, then fly back to loot the nest. I got 5 eggs in 30 minutes. Please spread.
The eggs can hatch and you can claim them in the wild.
I found a nest at exactly 42.8 and 82.5
Found nests around 45° 75° near the castle there on fjordur hope this helps
Use torches not camp fires. Torches are hotter and smaller.
On fjordur go to 40 60 right by the realm portals up above it, you'll see a arch and boom nests, found 4 in that area
People on here are giving the most difficult tips to get the eggs. Just fly down there. Hop off when non is too close. Grab the egg. Fly away. It's as simple as that. No need for an argentavis with bait
You can't tame these guys by knocking them out. Instead, you need to steal their fertilised eggs (just like wyverns and rock drakes), hatch them and raise them, just a bit harder than knocking them out. The eggs can, of course, be found in their nests and do be careful while trying to steal one as the Deinonychus is very territorial. Hope this helps :)
Here's how to steal one early game: If you spawn in at chalk hills 3 and spawn next to a pond walk opposite to the pond. There are some nests right there. Snatch one quickly and run off the cliff next to the pond. Be careful and make sure to fall into the water. From there make a left and you should get to a beach area. From there it should be easy to find your base.
On Fjordur you can find nests in the flat grassland area that is above and behind the portal room
You don’t even have to use a flyer, just run in with a raptor or something while they’re away from the nest of distracted. Worked for me.
Easiest way I do it is have a flyer to get to and from the nesting area and grab an animal to be as bait either breed a small but tanky animal or some wild animal you can grab drop the bait down let the deinonychus find it and try to kill it and while their preoccupied take the eggs, also dropping a tanky friend in there and having them run around is good too they can also grab eggs while you do then you just grab them and fly away with about six eggs in total
These tips are so difficult I got a 145 egg and a whole pack max levels by just having a pt going down in the canyons that have a bunch of eggs in there grabbing some and then leaving it took me 20 minutes max :) up if this helped
