There are 2 good ways I use these birds kibble and putting them near my door inside my house on aggressive that way if someone raids they'll kill it telling me the raiders name so I can get pay back.
Dodo

What ARK players use the Dodo for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Easy meat and egg source nice tame for mainly those reasons
Good for storage, when you get an army of them you can really destroy a t-rex with them no joke
Tame a huge one(at least 3.0x size) and equip a “Dodo Decimation Bit” onto it. Ultimate raiding device. Can destroy Tek.
Here’s 3 geat things you can do with them:
1: Strap bombs to their beak and direct them to an enemy base
2: Make an army and give them really high melee damage
Tame every dodo you find and station them outside your base
3: Make a fake base out of thatch to make enemies…

You can use dodos to get away from T. Rex
These little guys can basically do anything. Get 10 for them to fight or make a huge egg farm for kibble. They also make cute noises and make your heart melt.
These little guys are very useful when used as a suicide bomber. First, strap it with c4. Next, throw it where want it. Finally, watch your enemies die to suicide bomber dodos.
I’m Arkytypes,Precious Wolf1709 or Dinoplayer45 if you want to know my Ark name :)
Don't underestimate the usefulness of Dodos. They are great for early game basic kibble. Just put them in a breeding pen and hope they don't die.
Dodo size under 0.80 can carry in shoulder
Starter tames. Die easily. Used as Distractions. Farms for prime meat. Pets. Jokes. There are so many uses. USE THEM AS DISTRACTIONS! They are like bombs. If you want to get past something. TAKE ALL YOUR DODOS AND BOMB THE CARNIVORE... HEHE..
To hatch an adorable dodo you need 3 campfires lit and how ever many are lit will hatch your egg if it’s the right temperature
let's petition to have a tek armor for the dodo with a cannon on it
Very kind loyal fluffy and loud
3 of my Dodoks killed a jellyfish
Yoy can actually kill a Rex with these dudes
This isn't a tip but how come I can't pick up dodos.
Most dodos are small and at first I thought other than eggs they were use less but you can breed them to be bigger than your character and actually ride them the huge ones are vicious beasts. ....it's awesome.
I am the great commander of dodos don't kill them for meat it's a waste make an egg farm with them instead, if you want meat kill those obnoxious dilophosaurs. If you kill one I will curse your dinos to never live longer than a day, consider yourself warned
