Tips & Strategies
Idk why i find these guys cute there’s defo something wrong with me.
—TIP TIME—
PASSIVE, AGGRESSIVE, OR NEUTRAL?
Theris are aggressive, only if you approach within touching distance or hit them first. The Explorer notes are slightly misleading, saying that they are full aggro. Basically just don’t bother them and they chill.
TAMING
The easiest way to tame a Theri is through a trap (search one on YouTube or just use one with metal billboards) BUT be wary as those long claws can slice through thatch and wood! KEEP IN MIND that they are herbivores (idk how because they go on rampages) so make sure you have berries on hand or it’s favourite exceptional Kibble at hand. AND make sure to bring a plethora or narcotics/biotoxin as torpor SUCKS.
USES
Theris are the ultimate gatherers, having 3 different attacks, each gathering different things. The primary attack, which utilises the claws, is good for damaging enemies and clearing areas while also getting wood. It mainly harvests meat from corpses. The secondary attack, which is a bite, is extremely useful for gaining hide from corpses and berries from bushes. The tertiary attack, or, as I like to call it, the tickle attack, literally is the Theri just tickling. This does DOT (damage over time) during the animation, landing a few hits, and is extremely useful for fiber and thatch.
That just about does it for this tutorial, if you would like more please use the arrow to the sky! (This is my first tutorial btw)

Looking to tame a Tickle Chicken! Welcome! Before we start, let's get packing!
WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
-Knockout ammo (Tranq Arrows/ Darts or Shocking Tranq Darts)
-Knockout weapon(Bows, Crossbows, or Longnecks)
-Taming food(Mejoberries, Crops or its prefered Kibble)
-Lots of Biotoxin/ Narcotics
Now that you're all ready, let's get to taming!
Here are methods that you can use:
METHOD 1: Trapping
This is the most classic of all methods. Here is what you will need:
-Stone Foundations (4-9x), Stone Doorframes (Depends on how much foundations you're using) and Wooden Ramps(Depends on how much foundations you're using)
Now that the trap is built, lure the theri into the trap! (Make sure to use a flyer like a RG or PT, as theris are quite fast) After this, shoot down the theri and feed it your taming food. Make sure to be careful as their torpor drains rather quick so regularly feed it the biotoxin/narcotics you have packed. After a load of time and patience, name your newly tamed Theri and enjoy your Vegan Rex(or Tickle Chicken if you prefer)!
METHOD 2: The Cheap Method
This method is extremely cheap. Get onto a high rock or cliff where the Theri can't reach you and start shooting it down. When it starts running, chase it down. It may be a little annoying but you will eventually knock it out! After it's knocked out, just like the first method, make sure to feed it your biotoxin or narcotics from time to time(Also watch out for Raptors, they are a thing)! Wait a while and voila! Enjoy your new Vegan Rex/ Tickle Chicken and congratulate yourself!
Now, here are the utilities of the Theri:
The Theris have three attacks for gathering different items (They are also sometimes called the King Gatherer)
-The Bite Attack
-The Delicate Attack
-The Claw Attack
NOTE: There are different names for it online, but these are what I call them.
These attacks deal great damage and also gather a wide variety of items. A unique thing about the Theri's attacks is that they can damage both the mount and rider if you're on a PVP server (Tadaaa!!!)! They are also fast and are great mounts, with good health, attack and speed. The saddle is unlocked at level 69 (;) ) and is not too expensive!
That about sums up this guide. Thank you for reading and make sure to leave some feedback if there are any inaccuracies! Also make sure to check out my other tips which you may find helpful (I will list the most recent tip other than this down below) and happy taming!

Yay you tamed a Theriz!
Please arrow if helpful
So you decided to tame the Tickle Chicken huh, now here's what you need.
First build a trap, it's a must when you don't wanna risk dying. 4x4 trap with a ramp and STONE is a must. Sleep before taming or you will need a lot of Narcs because it's torpor drains fast. Bring Toxitant or Tranq arrow 40 to 50 depends on level, and use crossbow with good stats for faster knock. You won't need a lot of narcs to keep it down of you slept so feed it with Citronal for 90% up taming bonus. Kibble always makes things easier and faster if you have a female Sleepy Dino(Mobile). But citronal is a good taming food for this guys. Up so noob can see.
When u get 50 prime and realize it’s a vegan Rex not a carnivore😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hug the chicken
Trust me just hug it
You do not find tickle chicken. Tickle chicken finds you.
To get wood, use normal attack which is slashing with claws. To get berries, use bite attack. To use bite attack on mobile, change multi tap to alt attack 2 and tap with 2 fingers when riding the Therizinosaur. To get fiber, use the tickle with claws move. To use the tickle with claws move on mobile, jump when riding the Therizinosaur.
Found one that’s black with lavender feathers and claws with blue around her eyes. Up to tame
step 1 find therizino
step 2 therizino is chasing you
step 3 lure therizino to stone trap
step 4 you don't have a stone trap
step 5 AAAAAAAAA!!!!
Why does it break stones buildings! Up for devs to see this!
Ok so these might seem a monster to you, but these are actually the ultimate gatherers in the mid game, to tame this follow these steps:
1. Use the 4 stone gateway/2 door trap( make sure that you don't take more than 1 hit since 2 hits will murder you).
2. If you don't have much weapons, then use 2 primitive crossbows to knock it.( trust me 2 prim crossbows with 180+ tranqs is enough for a 270 theri )
3. I suggest using a balm or bring at least 150 bio toxin.
4. 3x balm with berries and toxin is enough.
5. Enjoy your theri.
Avoid them if you are not confident you can kill or subdue them. Despite being Herbivores they will not hesitate to use those large claws to slice you into ribbons before wandering off. These "Tickle Chickens" are certainly a threat to newcomers, and even more experienced survivors who find themselves unfortunate enough to have drawn the ire of a Therizinisaurus. I have no advice on how to fight one, only that you should avoid them.
Knocking it out is the easy part. Keeping it down? Better have a few hundred narcs
How to tame a tickle chicken!(that always kills you and your dinos)
Materials:
about 50+ tranqs for a high level.
Traps:
4 stone fence foundations.
16 doorframes.
Remember these are made from stone not wood
Method:
Trap:
1. Find a high level theri
2. Place a 口 shape with fence foundations. Put 2 doorframes on all but one side where only 1 is built.
3. Lead the theri to the trap.
4. Close the trap with the 1 doorframe.
5. Sleep!!!
6. Knock it out.
Tame on foot:
1. Sleep in a place where theri is rendered
2. Find a cliff.
3. Shoot shoot shoot shoot until it knocks out. Be careful I had a Rex chasing me on a 145 theri tame and that is a lotta work. Watch your surroundings!
Feed crop or mejos.
U do not need narcs because you slept with it awake and it lost all of its food!!! Tested with a 145 male redwood therino on mobile.
Tame it saddle it and massacre everything.
Utility:
Primary attack gets lotta wood a bit thatch some meat and hide and does 52 base damage.
Secondary collects a bit of wood and thatch but its main use is to get loads of fiber.
Third attack hits the rider on PVP. It breaks stone also. The third attack gives loads of hide and wood. I killed a iguanodon and it gave me 70+ on standard mobile harvest.
Boss dino for overseer and dragon.
Also does damage and has great health.
Enjoy using your tickle chicken!
Theris will drown if they pass out in water! Many tames won't drown when knocked out it rivers and streams, but these guys will. After 200+ hours the first 150 Theri I've found chose death over servitude...The hunt continues...
