So to tame one go to a lower south cave get spoiled meat and passive feed them and kill everything except dung beetles in the area
How to use them they are used to make fertilizer and oil put poop in inventory and build a box for it get it in the box put it on wonder and boom fertilizer and oil they sometimes prouduce oil
They can't eat massive animal feces for some reason
How to tame:
Go to South Cave and find it
Make sure a strong tame is with you and start feeding it some feces or spoiled meat
When tamed quickly pick him up and leave the cave.
For Mobile Players: There are multiple tips suggesting to put the beetle in a cage; don't. The little bugger has gotten out of mine several times and needed to be 'recalled'. Resorted to building a stone window frame box around him. Still gives access from any side, and he stays put.
The new owl pellets from Extinction don't work on the beetles for taming purposes.
1. To tame put poop in last hotbar slot.
2. Once it tamed it eats spoiled meat !
An easy tame if you have poop/rotten meat! I got two well leveling up in the bog today and they have very pretty colors so if you carry meat or pick up random poop and have something to KO them with then I suggest taming one!
They are passive tames. I always pick them up with my Argy and take them to my base and drop into a taming pen or at least somewhere safe on the map (whichever is closer). I’ve always used spoiled meat to tame and it doesn’t take much time at all.
You can find these on the center of Extinction, sometimes nearby the swamp area.
In Genesis they are also roaming around the swamp.
They can be found in the dunes near the blue obilisk on scorched earth
Were can you find them on extinction??
