ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies

If you want to tame one, they have to be in a house of some sort. The reasons why are:
1: they fly
2: if they stun you, something like a terror bird doesnโt come and kill you
Also, you might want a two layer roof, so you can go in between them and have the roof/floor have trapdoors so you can open it, shoot the mini raptor, and close it if it jumps at you. I did this with a Trike and it worked.

I hate these bastards with a burning passion. They have knocked me off my mount so many times in the red woods, get my health down while Iโm stunned and then some Carno or terror bird comes over and finishes me off. They will kill you, your family and anything you have ever loved.
Be ware!, they are the best kicker of all ARK. Imagine they hit your head with their super tiny leg, and surprisingly, with its power, they can knock u off from your mount and stunt both of you easily. Thats the power of the chiken leg
Oh yeah, dont forget with their massive scream. If you translate it, they say " u expecting an archeo, but its me MICRO!!! ORA!ORA!ORA!ORA!"
Iโm a lvl 100 with my favourite mount being a lvl 250 wyvern and if I see one on these I run away
I keep confusing these things for archaeopteryx and dimorphs. One will flee in fear and climb onto the trees, one wonโt react at all unless you attack them, and one will tackle you off your mount and eat your face.
That's a cute little birdie...RKO outta nowhere!!!

ANNOYING
Stegosaurus is the natural enemy of the things, as you canโt get knocked off by Micros on a Stego
I have never actually encountered one, I feel extremely lucky now after reading all of these, holy heck
I kid you not I spawned on north zone two and was just vibing I tamed a parasaur and a baby parasaur a lystro and a dodo but then a theri jumped out of no where killed my baby parasaur so I ran and then got bombarded by 15 million of these stupid pests and somehow didn't die but RIP my dodo Bob.
Doesn't attack when mounting a Theri, same with terror birds. Chicken family.
