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 Lost Spino
After hatching or birth, the baby Lost Spino matures slowly, reaching adulthood in about 2 days and 23 hours at 1x maturation. The most labor-intensive part is the baby phase (0–10% maturation) when it can't use a Feeding Trough yet.
Offspring inherit parental stats and have a small chance to mutate, gaining +2 levels in a random stat. Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.
Maturation has three phases: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~427 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~28h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~36h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.
Imprint bonuses are significant: a fully imprinted Lost Spino gains 30% extra damage and damage resistance with its imprinter mounted. You'll be asked to cuddle, walk, or feed specific kibble at regular intervals during maturation.
Use the raising calculator to plan food requirements for raising Lost Spino babies through all three growth stages. The Baby phase (0–10%) takes ~427 minutes and is the most hands-on, requiring direct feeding or a Maewing.
The multiplier feature helps plan large-scale Lost Spino raises by totaling food across all babies. Consider food spoilage when choosing what to feed: Kibble lasts days, while Raw Meat spoils in minutes.
Found throughout the ARKs, the Lost Spino is a carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It falls within the Variant classification.
With 100% base Melee Damage, the Lost Spino has decent hitting power. Health-wise, the Lost Spino sits at 805 base, making it quite durable. Stamina sits at 350 base, providing good endurance. A base Weight of 350 means a solid weight pool.
The Lost Spino is a wild creature that cannot be tamed through conventional methods. Killing a wild Lost Spino yields 60 base XP.
