Buying Oxen

[ford.dbford.david661]

Greetings- How do I purchase more Oxen? Thanks for your help

Build more hitching posts and buy oxen from there.... they will be allocated to that post on arrival. 1 post=1 ox. if you upgrade the post to a stable you can get 2 ox in that stable.
Hope that helps.

That is technically not how it works. They don't go to the one you buy them from, they go to them in the order they were built. So if you had several of them built, they would go to the first one built that is not occupied, no matter which one you bought it from.

They also take a while to show up, so you can buy them on day 1 from your starting post and build the hitching post while you are waiting for them to show up.

Greetings,

You have to wait 30 days between ordering Oxen.

- But there is a work around for that.
- At the livestock trading post you can order 3 or 4 Oxen at once and when you need one for an upgraded post to shed, it will come from the traders stock.

- I had 2 Oxen being kept at the trader, for a few months. The trader can store them in the small outback of his building. (shortens the arrival time of new Oxen.)
