I measured food values for wyverns and gigas at a range of maturations and consumption speeds. I set the baby age speed to 0 so I could hold a dino at the same age indefinitely.
Giga
basefoodrate: 0.002314,
babyfoodrate: 45,
extrababyfoodrate: 20
max = 2.0826
if min = baseminrate * baby * extrababy * consumption
min = range(2.0826, 0.1395, 0.9) => 0.33381
if min = basefoodrate * consumption (this one better fits the observation below
min = range(2.0826, 0.002314, 0.9) => 0.2103426

We see a 3x increase in food consumption when a 99.999% Giga becomes an adult because of an additional adult food rate multiplier in giga's dcsc.

maxfoodrate's correct, but minfoodrate should be:
