Want to tame one of these? Well, you came to the right place! These guys are pretty hard to tame. (Took me a month to find one) Here is a guild on how to tame one:

What You need to pack:

50 tranq arrows or 30-40 tranq darts

1crossbow or 2 crossbows or 1-2 Longneck rifles

50 raw prime meat or more

200 raw meat

500 narcotics just in case

Grappling hooks

What tames you might need:

Tapejara with its saddle ( 3 seater)

Argy with its saddle

Way number 1 ( I did it this way)

Hop on your argy and look for a quetzal (They usually spawn around the red obelisk near some islands)

Since Quetzals never land, look in the air for one.

Once you found one, Jump from your argy and grapple it. You may want to practice before you try to tame the quetzal. Whistle attack on the quetzal and hit it with tranq ammo. Feed it meat and there you go!

Way 2

To make this way short, do the same this as with the argy but use a tapejara and sit on the extra seats. Tranq it and feed it meat!

If u reach around lvl 71 on mobile and do the hunt argentavis quest, u can get a free quetz saddle.

Tame it using a tapi. Get on the front seat, then set your tapi to attack a creature on the ground. Before it attacks the creature, whistle go here toward the Quetzal. From there you can just continue to follow the Quetzal by typing go here while you're tranking it.

(MOBILE) My way how I tamed a quetzal is:

I found a quetzal arround the green obelisk

Then I killed it with my argy (don't harvest quetzal)

Then took his implant from him

Placed revival platform and built thatch things arround, so he cant escape

Then I knocked with tranq.

You can bring ur friend so he can help u tame it, with Tapejara, Argentavis, Pteranodon,

With Tapejara, ur friend controls Tapejara and you sit on the back and knock out the quetzal

With Argentavis, your friend picks you up with Argentavis and then he flies to Quetzal and you try to knock it

With Pteranodon, same like with Argentavis

-Hope this helped.

Use a tapejara to tame, Whistle it to follow and bang

To the mobile player who can’t request or unclaim their missing Quetz, sorry. You can’t do anything, you have to wait until they eventually starve to death, as you cannot request them so if they had plenty of food in their inventory, you’ll have to wait an extremely long time for that tame slot to be free. Sorry man, hope this isn’t too bad for you.

Upgrade health maybe 2 or 3 times, then soam levels in weight and stam because you can just go into air, stop sprinting, stop moving and sit up there for days on pvp servers and if ur high enough your safe

Or mosa and go deep underwater

Have fun not sleeping because breeding takes so long

Get yourself a flyer a net gun, a parachute and yoir weapon to tranq it out(optionally a trap) First get on the flyer and find your quetz then jump off using the parachute and shoot it with the net gun. Then land and build a trap or tranq it out right there

Wild quetzals need to have a look at trees and land dinos, not just clouds and other birds

I literally found it on my base lol

Is it a possibility to take an egg and have one Aggro on you, or is that too dangerous?

They are usually around red woods and swamp also I would recommend using tranq arrows or darts mostly arrows cause damage in the arrows upgrade the torpor

My way that i am willing to do to Tame these guys is to kill it, revive it with a revival platform and tranq it 😊

Position them so that their wings go through each other and they wont move away from one another during breeding. Learned this a few months ago.

The best thing to do is 1. Get a arge, 2. Fill it up with stone or another heavy thing, until its ALMOST over-encumbered (aka so its slower when you grapple but not to slow. Now grapple onto that sucka and whistle attack target. Happy taming :)

The best way to knock it out is too ride a griffin and take out your Tranq gun and shoot it in the head.

A easy way to tame the Quetz is just by taming a Griffin first and having kibble. Once you tamed the Griffin you can shoot of it even in the air so I just chased it with my Griffin and it got knocked

If using Metal gates Cover the top with roofs as it can fly through the top of the gate somehow

Pls /\ if this helped

You can carry megalosaurus using quetzal in mobile!
