Despite what a lot of people will have you believe, dodos are easily one of the most useful and underrated tames in the game. Not only are they quick and easy meat (or prime meat if you have a tamed seagull shoulder pet) but they make basic kibble, which is easy to produce and satisfies all tames hunger. Use them to feed the pigs for the best mass healing. Also, if you are crossbow taming something with low health/torpor, and a high death risk, you can sacrifice a dodo to heal it on the fly. This let'you go much farther without having to waste engram points and resources on a longneck and bullets/tranks.
More Dodo Utility Tips
You can get prime meat from the babies, but it spoils very quick, so this is how to get it all to a predator:
1. Incubate lots of dodo eggs so they only have one or two seconds left to hatch.
2. Carry the dodo eggs as well as a campfire (you might need two) and fuel.
3. When you’ve knocked out the predator you want, light the fire and hatch some of the dodo eggs.
4. Kill the babies and harvest their meat with a metal pick.
5. Feed the meat to the predator and enjoy!
I’ve experimented, and it looks like you get two to six prime per dodo.
Dodo's have a chance to lay an egg every time they poop. So force-feed them a bunch of stimberries (That will make them poop, and lay eggs)! Just make sure that you have some regular berries because it will make their food go down. Never again will you have to worry about obtaining Dodo eggs. You will only need to tame one!
