The Feeding Trough in ARK: Survival Evolved simplifies the feeding of nearby tames, allowing them to swallow from a shared trough instead of having food in their own inventories, and thereby potentially reducing spoilage from multiple stacks.

Construction [ ]

The Feeding Trough does not crave a foundation for placement, and as such does not interfere with the spawning of natural resources. It does not snap to other structures. Feeding troughs may also be placed and used underwater for taking care of marine creatures. The trough works through walls and from higher elevations, and then in that location is no need to put them in water if you have a base in a higher place or adjacent to your water pen, nor is information technology necessary for animals in individual pens to accept private troughs.

Usage [ ]

The feeding trough holds anything that tin can be used as feed for any blazon of tame. This includes such strange items as stone or sulfur for Stone Elementals. Tames inside its range swallow from the trough before consuming food in their inventory. Any and all foods can be placed in the trough at in one case, and so Berries, Meat, and so on can all exist mixed together to feed all types of tames.

Tames belonging to allied tribes can also feed from a trough.

Spoilage [ ]

Nutrient placed in the trough has its spoil fourth dimension multiplied by 4, just as information technology would when carried by a dino. It is therefore advisable to go along nutrient in a nearby Preserving Bin or Fridge and only top up trough supplies periodically. For more data on spoil times, encounter Spoilage.

Range [ ]

The Feeding Trough allows tames to feed within a cubic range of xi foundations horizontally maximum (depending on the orientation of the map) and fifteen walls vertically from the point of placement. The tames do not have to motility as long as they are within this cube. Tames that wander through the range area are also able to feed from information technology. You can ostend which tames are within range past observing the feeding trough icon in a higher place each tame's proper noun. Tames display the icon regardless of whether the trough(south) they are in range of actually take suitable food for them. Since patch 311.74 or before, the Feeding Trough has an option to show the range with a light-green circle.

Notes [ ]

Other players can steal from a feeding trough if it is left unlocked.
Babe dinosaurs tin't eat from the trough until they reach the Juvenile stage.
Creatures but eat nutrient from the feeding trough if they would eat it from their inventory - herbivores will not eat meat, carnivores will not eat berries, and so on.
An icon appears above the proper noun on tames that indicates if they are within range of a feeding trough.

The Feeding Trough is treated as a thatch structure and can exist damaged by anything except non-explosive ranged attacks.
