I've been considering buying an Ox...?

Question

Any suggestions on what I should look for, or avoid, in my search. Mostly, companionship is what I'm seeking, and I've read Oxen are quiet and calm animals. I need that in my life.

Anyone with experience or advice in this matter?

Answer 1

an Ox? thats a quite different animal, i would get a sugar glider, i think they are so fun and they really are worth what they cost, so look into them instead of a Ox? ahah

Answer 2

Okay, well, what you want is a steer. More specifically, a red steer. THe black steer are harder to get to know, and earn their trust. The red steer, are generally bigger, and are more amiable. But please be ready to get up at 5 in the am, and feed him and brush him. You must also be ready to be stepped on, kicked, and bitten. E-mail me for more info, I have had  steer before, and can give you advice!
