This mod brings immersive Cattle Herding with an integrated buying and selling system into single-player, letting you buy, herd, and sell cows across the frontier.
Gather your herd, drive them across the plains, and make your fortune. You can finally experience the cattle herding fantasy that Rockstar never gave us!
Features and what’s new!
Buy and Sell Cows
Purchase cattle at Emerald Ranch and sell them at Valentine Auction Yard.
Herd Management
Drive your herd manually across the map. Cows move naturally and Graze when idle, with a dynamic movement system and improved herding AI.
Dynamic Speed Control
Adjust herd speed with (Down Arrow/Up Arrow/Shift)
Money System
Fully tied into RDR2’s real wallet. Buying reduces your cash, selling rewards you with profits.
Blips & Prompts
Clear map markers for buying and selling, plus on-screen prompts for easy interaction.
O: Spawn Cows and Amount of cows spawned
K: Toggle Herding
Down Arrow/Up Arrow/Shift Herd Speed
U: Toggle HUD
How to Use
Travel to Emerald Ranch.
Hold the prompt key A to buy cows (buy cows blip on map), once you have bought your cows use F3 to round them up and get behind them to start Herding, Steer them by moving to the left or right of the Herd, Herding was tough work so you may need to sweep back and forth behind the herd to keep them moving and round up stragglers! (Cows naturally follow the leader of the Herd)
Drive your Herd towards Valentine Auction Yard.
Drive them into the sell zone (sell cows blip on the map), once all cows are rounded up close to the sell location stop herding them (F3) and hold X to sell them.
Sell your Cows and make a tidy profit! (I made the prices realistic for added immersion)
6. Use F4/F5/F6 to control herd speed.
7. Optional: You can still spawn Herd’s with F1 and herd them normally if you just want to Herd naturally (you can still sell them). This is fully integrated from Herding V2.

Great mod
This is a great mod, very immersive and a nice addition to the game.
Could you please add a setting to turn off always showing that information when we load into the game?
It’s helpful to know, for sure, but it’s unnecessary to show everytime we load into the game and have to manually turn it off
Other than that, it’s a great mod. Keep up the great wrok
