Tips & Strategies
Dodos are AMAZING tames for beginners for these reasons
1. They die for you ( other beginner tames usually run away)
2. Enough dodos can kill a turtle (carbonemeys)
3. They lay eggs fast (good for simple kibble farms)
4. You can carry them (you can grab them and run away from danger)
5. If you want to breed them you can just trap them in between some small storage boxes. You donβt even have to make walls for them to breed in
6. They are disposable. They are very common and easy to just tame another one if your original dies
7. They poop consistently (good for beginner farms)
8. They are simple (you can give them a lot of berries and they wonβt go hungry for a long time)
9. You can tame them by knocking them out with your fists
10. If you level up their health you can grab one and throw it at a dangerous creature as you run away.
Those are ten reasons why dodos are great tames for beginners

These tames can be used as a bomb. You place C4 on the dodo and drop it into a base. Detonate and watch the fireworks!
In Ark Mobile you can breed dodos to get larger or smaller. Dodos below 0.8 scale can be mounted on your shoulder and above 2.4 scale they can be mounted and ridden.
Very fun for single player
When you get lonely itβs always There
For the guy who said that it would be cool if a dodo could sit on your shoulder: on ark mobile, a dodo smaller than .75 can in fact be carried on your shoulder. Dodos over 2.6 can be ridden. Fun fact. :)
If you are playing on Extiction tame a high level one of them. Mine fought against a lvl 70 Defense Unit and won because it was too small to be hit by it.
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 youβve 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!
Iβve experimented, and it looks like you get two to six prime per dodo.
Dodos are a pretty useful farm animal:
1. Build a 3x3 box or pen, get 10-ish dodos, 1 male, oviraptor and dung beetle and put them all inside
2. Set the dodos to mate, oviraptor and dung beetle to wander
Dodos have a chance to lay an egg every time they poop, giving you lots for kibble. The oviraptor will auto pickup eggs, and the dung beetle will pick up the poop giving you fertilizer and oil
You can also hatch fertilized eggs and kill the babies for prime meat. Yummy!
Dodos have a chance of laying an egg every time it poops. Unlike all other tames, which have a chance to lay an egg approximately every 25 minutes.
