Baby: The hatched dinosaur, now a baby, needs constant attention and food placed directly in its inventory to survive, or a nearby Maewing to take care of its needs.

During the Baby phase (0-10%), you must hand-feed or use a Maewing to nurse. From Juvenile (10%+), dinos can eat from a Feeding Trough on their own. Use Preserving Salt in troughs to double spoil times.
More about breeding the Corrupted Chalicotherium
The Corrupted Chalicotherium gives live birth after mating, skipping the egg-incubation step entirely. Gestation takes approximately 8 hours at default rates.
The baby Corrupted Chalicotherium takes approximately 3 days and 10 hours to fully mature at default rates - over an extremely long period, one of the longest in the game. The most labor-intensive part is the baby phase (0–10% maturation) when it can't use a Feeding Trough yet.
Each baby inherits stats from both parents with a chance of mutation - +2 wild levels to a random stat plus a color change. Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.
The Corrupted Chalicotherium's growth progresses through three stages: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~494 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~33h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~41h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.
Imprint bonuses are significant: a fully imprinted Corrupted Chalicotherium gains 30% extra damage and damage resistance with its imprinter mounted. Imprint requests include cuddling, walks, and specific kibble - check the wiki for which kibble to stockpile.
The raising calculator above shows exactly how much food you need for each maturation phase of the Corrupted Chalicotherium. Expect ~494 minutes of active care during the Baby phase before it graduates to trough-feeding as a Juvenile.
The multiplier feature helps plan large-scale Corrupted Chalicotherium raises by totaling food across all babies. Different food types have different spoil timers - factor that into which food you stockpile.
Found throughout the ARKs, the Corrupted Chalicotherium is a herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It falls within the Variant classification.
Its base Stamina of 300 gives it average stamina. Dealing 100% base Melee Damage, the Corrupted Chalicotherium brings solid damage output to the table. The Corrupted Chalicotherium has 600 base Health - solidly tanky. It carries 400 base Weight - a solid weight pool.
The Corrupted Chalicotherium roams the ARK as a wild, untamable creature. A wild Corrupted Chalicotherium is worth 6 base experience when killed.
