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

Overview

Rex Eggs are randomly dropped by Rex. They can be eaten or used to make Exceptional Kibbles for taming Basilosaurus, Brontosaurus, Giganotosaurus, Karkinos, Managarmr, Mosasaurus, Quetzal, Rex, Spino, and Therizinosaur. On ARK: Survival Evolved Mobile, they can be used to make Kibble (Rex Egg) for taming Plesiosaurus and Quetzals.

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

Picking one up in the presence of nearby Rex (excluding domesticated ones) will cause them to become hostile and attack the survivor.

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

Super Fertilized Rex Eggs are a type of Rex Egg exclusive to ARK: Survival Evolved Mobile.

These Eggs can be obtained after a female Rex with a Carnivore Pheromone applied has laid one. They will hatch quicker than normal Rex Eggs and the baby Rex will have better stats when it has hatched.

They can also be used to craft Super Kibble (Rex Egg), which will tame Creatures faster and with more taming effectiveness.
