Depends on the animal that was used to create the hybrids/chimera's brain. If that animal is quite stupid, its DNA would only know how to raise a young of such an animal.

If the animal is intelligent, the parenting skills are not coded in its DNA. Like humans, it will parent its young like it was raised itself. In the novels, the raptors were bred in a lab and were never properly raised, because the scientists didn't knew how. As a result, the raptors are terrible parents. I think the I. rex would be a terrible parent too. Raised in isolating etc.
