Horses

It is possible catch an wild horse and make it mine?? I bought a second space for the horse in the stable and brought an wild horse and couldn't make him mine...i cant put the sadlle in other horse cause the game dont show me that option. Or the only  way to get another horse is to buy him in stable?

Nope, you have to purchase the horses to keep them.

You can ride/use a stolen or captured horse during the game though but if you do missions etc, you will lose that horse and have to get another. I've actually used a secondary horse for a pack horse when I go hunting.

The worst part is the donkey/mule? also disappears, even if you fast travel.

They are way more rare than horses.

 

Those are kind of fun to ride, if you bump into one. I managed to hitch

one at my camp, but then it disappeared when I walked away a bit =/

Hmm, I never tried to pack an animal on the donkey, but have done

it with horses like you said (riding it with your horse following, with animals on it.)

 

You can't even keep/stable the donkey in single player, either =/

This needs to change! I do not have a donkey emote so I had to use a zebra...

If you wreck your wagon doing a Trader delivery and have more than one bundle to deliver, try to grab and ride the draft horse who was pulling your wagon before whistling for your main horse. You can ride the wagon horse and have your main horse follow, each one carrying a Goods bundle.

 

This is as close as you get to 'owning' a second horse without buying one.

I rode a "Mule" for the first time, it was by  Emerald Ranch (for some reason.)

 

Unlike the donkeys, its stamina runs out nearly instantly and it starts bucking (with no way to give it more.)

Whoa, that actually never occurred to me

Good idea, if I mess up on the Long Distance one I'm doing just for the

distance and there is more than one bag after I blow up the wagon

(almost always just one bag, but could be two at most.)

 

If I have more than one or two bags, I have the full load; so usually just quick join something/return

to camp and have the full local delivery again. I've only had to do that a couple times, when I was

going down the fairly wide railroad bridge on a Thieves' Landing delivery and the stupid horse

veers off.
