In ASA, I like to keep at least 2 oviraptor at my base, 1 Low level Oviraptor that is weighed down with stones and put on wondering to give the egg laying buff, and a second, high level Oviraptor dedicated to Collecting eggs. I love the new buff that these guys got
Oviraptor
What ARK players use the Oviraptor for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
it’s the level that increases range oviraptor picks up. NOT melee!
Don't know if it encourages egg laying, but I've never seen so many dino turds in my life.
The bunny version off this creature lays Dino candy’s feed them to your dinos to change there colour and give them a buff (only at Easter)
I might be wrong but if I think they should be given a drop point and when set on wonder they can get eggs and bring them to drop point(s)
Don't let people fool you,this is an underrated dino,he can pick up eggs and don't allert any other dino

On Ark ASA leveling melee damage does NOT have increase range of egg collection or buff. The only thing that increases its range is the total level of the creature. Only the number floating over their heads will control the range. The only stat you should be leveling is food to keep it fed longer.
The pickup radius for the Oviraptor is a cube not a circle. And the square is lined up to the North, South, East and West. So if your base is not perfectly lined up with the compass it might be harder to get the best range for egg collection.
Don’t try use these for actual egg gathering as it no longer exists in evolved, took me ages to figure out, it only gives the egg buff and that’s it
If they pick up an egg the parents don’t aggro
ASA Auto egg collection with oviraptors!
You want to have two oviraptors tamed,
1 for the egg laying boost (On Wander)
1 to collect eggs
The one used to collect eggs should be as high of a level as possible to increase the range it can pick up eggs. (No need to level a…

1 to collect eggs
The one used to collect eggs should be as high of a level as possible to increase the range it can pick up eggs. (No need to level a specific stat like weight or melee to increase range just level!)
Contrary to what I read below, you don't need to level up specifically melee or weight in order to increase the range of picking up eggs. It's the overall level of your Oviraptor that matters, so you can level up any stat.
Tamed ones can steal eggs when on follow bring them to nests with cryopods
These guys are a must-have if you find yourself needing to clean out 0:00 spoil timer eggs from nests. If you set one of these on follow near an egg, it’ll steal it without any aggro. You can then take it out of its hands without worrying about 6 wyverns chasing you down for…

You can then take it out of its hands without worrying about 6 wyverns chasing you down for that insta-spoiled lvl 20 poison egg that no one will touch. Up if helpful!!
Increases rate of unfertilized egg drop rate and has a chance of reducing the mating timer after a Dino lays a fertilized egg/gives birth.
They do eat meat when tamed don’t waste your eggs
These a EXCELLENT tames, because when their near female Dino’s the female lays an egg, so taming a female Rex or any other would be kind of smart.
There perfect for stealing wyvern eggs
Oviraptors are an easy knockout tame, then feed it Rex eggs.
ATTENTION: THE HIGHER THE LVL OVIRAPTOR, THE FURTHER AWAY IT CAN PICK UP EGGS.
It is very important you breed for the highest lvl possible to get the max range with an oviraptor. It does NOT matter what stats are…

It is very important you breed for the highest lvl possible to get the max range with an oviraptor. It does NOT matter what stats are out into it. MELEE will do nothing! It’s the OVERALL LVL.
Great for helping you’re dinos lay eggs.
Upgrade their food!!
Thats because they increase the chance to lay eggs OR poop
