The Rex Egg is one of the Eggs in ARK: Survival Evolved.

Overview

Rex Eggs are randomly dropped by  Rex. They can be eaten or used to make  Exceptional Kibble for taming  Basilosaurus,  Brontosaurus,  Giganotosaurus,  Karkinos,  Managarmr,  Mosasaurus,  Quetzal,  Rex,  Spino,  Therizinosaur, and  Tropeognathus.

After two  Rex mate, the resulting egg can be hatched into a baby  Rex.

Grabbing an egg in the presence of wild  Rex will cause them to become hostile and attack the survivor.

Incubation

Main article: Incubation

The Rex Egg takes 4h 59m 58.561s to hatch. It must be in the temperature range of 32 to 34 °C / 90 to 93 °F to successfully hatch, otherwise it will start to lose  Health. The female  Rex needs between 18h and 2d before having the capacity to lay eggs again. The incubation time can be reduced by up to 20% if the egg is placed in an  Egg Incubator at the ideal temperature.

Collecting

A flying mount, such as quetzal, or argentavis, and a quick ascent after retrieving a Rex Egg is a good idea, as even one Rex can prove to be a challenge on foot, let alone any others also offended by stealing the egg as well. If the egg is near a sufficient body of water, an aquatic mount can also provide an effective means of escape, as Rexes are poor swimmers. A well-planned assault or distraction with other players and/or mounts can also make egg retrieval easier, though the risk of losing tamed animals to a Rex is a questionable sacrifice for an egg. A Pteranodon is also an ideal mount to escape with, just make sure it can carry it.

Alternatively, you can tame some female Rexes to easily obtain eggs with no risk, as they will not retaliate if you pick up the eggs A Male Rex can speed up the egg laying process with Mate Boost, and an Oviraptor will also help
