booned Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Ptera's - Easy to tame, short maturity times. Wolves - Just use an Argy to carry a good levelled one to a pen. Carno's - The kibble you get from their eggs can be used for a host of mid / high tier dinos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobRoss Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 quetzals are always a good choice but good luck on finding new blood to mix into your bloodline other than that rexes are a solid go to for the bosses and you can make some good cash if you start getting good ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrist14 Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 For new people I'd say pteranodons, short breeding process, they don't eat too much, and they're useful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sal Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 You should breed what you use most first My recommendations Pteranodon, easy and fast breeding Quetz, your powerhouse for farming Ankylo, to get more metal especially with the imprinter sitting on it Rex, for meatfarming now, for boss-battles later Bears/Beavers for weight to carry stuff for you and farm resources Therizino, most OP farmer ever Giga, no dino will benefit more from imprinting, if you want to use gigas imprinting is a must have. Try to trade for eggs BEFORE starting to breed. Maybe friendly tribes will trade better bloodlines with you. Offer to fertilize their plants in return, most huge tribes will love this ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arboraxiskoa Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Could always get into breeding Monkeys both big and small from what I've seen a lot people are looking into buying good mutated monkeys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geneticbits Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I'd start with ankylo's. The other options everyone else posted are good choices, as well. But if you've never bred before - it's good start with a herbi to get a feel for it. And anky's tend to have hefty food stats so even a low level is not very likely to starve from the current feeding glitch. Then graduate to the carnivores.

Sh4rk Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Even though you won't be able to breed up super dinos right away, having backup flyers is always good. Try pteras or argents to get your breeding routine down before trying anythig else. Argies are a pretty easy raise because their carry weight is considerably more than a ptera, so you won't have to check on it as often while in baby phase. Good luck to you!

Thalantyr Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Pteras, Turtles & Vultures are all short, useful breeds to begin with. Rexes, Argies, Quetzal, they're not really good breeds to begin with. They take a fair investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyCrescent Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 If you're new to breeding, before you worry about "what" my first advice is to worry about "where." Depending on what you're breeding and where you're set up, you'll need to consider how many torches, or campfires, or (preferably) air conditioners you'll need to incubate your egg. I've found that 12 - 16 air conditioners arranged in a "u" shape is good enough for most critters. You should also consider investing in a number of refrigerators to stock up with meat / berries - babies eat a lot! and it's much less stressful to prepare ahead of time than have to do an emergency supply run early on. And, you should determine where you'll be raising the baby - if you're going to do it outside, with the risks inherent to an outdoor setup, or whether you're going to invest in an indoor area that helps guarantee the safety of a young animal. Before you commit to a baby, look up its maturation rate (easy to find on the wiki) and plan ahead if you intend to go the extra mile for imprinting - which it will need every three to four hours. In my mind, those are all things to get straight before you dive in. All that said! Utility animals are always a good choice, as mentioned above. Notably argents, anklyos and allosauruses are always good choices. Later game, rexes are great too. But if you're just looking to learn the ropes, you can always start with an animal that you're fond of, too. Breeding is my favorite element of Ark; I've found working on my bloodlines to be a tremendous amount of fun, with rewarding results too. I hope you enjoy it just as much, whatever dino you choose to start with. I hope this helps; good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
master33431 Posted April 1, 2017 Author Share Posted April 1, 2017 Thanks a lot guys ! Took some of the advice in account, but after some weeks i think starting with bears wasnt bad choice,- good dino for early-mid game, easy to breed and i dont need to hatch eggs...Pteranodon also awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
