Guide on Ark Mobile Breeding, Incubating, and Raising
Breeding:
Breeding is how you get fertilized eggs. It is very important, as when you breed, it is the start of the offspring that will probably have higher stats than the parents.
————————————————————————————————
How to Breed:
To breed, you need a breeding pen. A breeding pen is an enclosed area where the dinosaur you are breeding stays in the area and mates. A breeding pen should be preferably tight, although it should also have an entrance the dinosaur cannot fit through so you can hatch the egg.
————————————————————————————————
Breeding Requirements:
*****You must have the dino stay close to each other, or else it will reset the breeding.
*You need a breeding pen.
*You need an entrance to exit the pen.
Incubation:
Incubating is how you hatch eggs. You will need a required temperature. If it is too hot, the egg will slowly die. Vice versa, (if it is too cold) it will also die. You can check on how much time it incubates or how much health it has.
————————————————————————————————
How to Incubate:
You will need fires to a LOT of fires (or air conditioners!) to incubate an egg. Experiment on how much temperature it needs. Sometimes the egg will change how much temperature it needs. That’s why you should bring more than you think is enough.
————————————————————————————————
Incubating Requirements:
*****You need a certain temperature.
**You need more incubators than you think is enough to incubate.
**You need to monitor the egg.
Raising:
Raising is taking care of the baby when it hatches. You will need a LOT of food if you can’t monitor it. There are 4 stages. Baby, juvenile, adolescent, then adult.
————————————————————————————————
How to Raise:
You will need food. Make sure it stays alive until it is mature. Replace the food if not enough. There will be a bar on what percentage it will be mature. Self-explanatory.
————————————————————————————————
How to Imprint:
There is a bar below the maturity bar. Every 30 minutes the baby will want to do something. When you’re done doing it, it will raise the imprint bar. When the dinosaur is imprinted, it’s resistance and damage done will rise.
————————————————————————————————
Raising Requirements:
***You need food.
*You need a safe place.
*****KEEP IT ALIVE.
————————————————————————————————
Types of Imprint Ways:
Walking (Whistle the baby to follow you. Once it is following you, go around the place.)
Cuddling (Tap the baby.)
Kibble (Feed the baby a kind of kibble.)
I really hope this helps, I only know a little bit of those stuff.

More Dodo Taming & KO Tips
Taming a dodo is super EASY!
But good for first Dino 😄
if u are new to ark then yes u can tame one or two but don't let ot get tooo much. i know they are cute but that's it. they are not helpful and u need to take care of them. i had so much of them and it broke my heart to kill them because i couldn't tame more dinosaurs
Dodos are quite easy to tame, and have few uses, but here’s a guide anyway.
1. Find a dodo, they are found on the southwest, south, and southeast beaches, sometimes they are in the jungle next to the beaches.
2. Easiest way to knock out a dodo is to use fists, however it’s sometimes problematic with high level high health dodos, so I recommend a club or slingshot. Tranq arrows are kind of a waste, and can kill the dodo depending on level. No trap is needed because the player is able to outrun the dodo
3. Mejos work great, and won’t really affect the effectiveness so I recommend those, you won’t need narcs, and it is a quick tame, so just sit by it until it’s up
Happy taming!
P.S. I’m making an in depth taming guide for every creature in ark, so check those out, all my tips have this format and end in Happy taming! If these are helpful, please raise it to the top so it can help more people
Alright so this is how to tame a dodo for newbies
1: get some berries (make sure it’s a decent amount so you don’t run out)
2: find a dodo and punch it/club it until it's unconscious
3: feed the dodo the berries (give it more as needed)
4:you have a dodo! Give him a name and enjoy 😊
20 metal behemoth gates
Ascended longneck rifle 150+ traq darts
5 lvl 150+ Giganotosaurus for sacrifice
You also gotta wear the dodo wyvern mask skin
I hatched triplets, two died within seconds, one survived and she is the chosen one
From what I have heard you can breed dodos to be so big you can ride without saddle, or you can breed so small it can sit on your shoulder. Working on breeding them big. To breed small/big then just breed your biggest/smallest dodos together. Hope this helps. if helpful 👆, if unhelpful 👇
