Requirements

Before you are able to take part in any activities on the Ranch, you must meet the following requirements:

• 42 Farming
• 45 Construction
• Have 100 beans (the currency of Player-Owned Farms)

Location

The Ranch Out of Time is on an island just off the coast of Anachronia. There are two ways to reach the Ranch Out of Time. The first is to walk from the Anachronia Base Camp to the mystical tree by the Aquatic jadinkos and using that mystical tree to teleport to the Ranch. The other is to walk into the Farming Guild, walk up the stairs, and then walk out onto the North balcony to the use the mystical tree located there. Taking either of these routes will put you on the Southeast corner of the Ranch's island. Walk Northwest to find Prehistoric Potterington and the rest of the Ranch.

Getting Started

You will not be able to start raising ranch animals until you have purchased deeds for at least 1 pen. To do this, right click Prehistoric Potterington and choose "Farmers' Market." In the tab labeled "Farm Upgrades" you will find the deeds for all the the Ranch's pens. In order to build any pens on the Ranch you must meet the required Farming and Construction levels in addition to having the resources to build them (see our Anachronia Base Camp guide for information on resources). Building each pen yields Construction. All this information is laid out in the table below.

Note that even though Granny Potterington gives you access to the Farmers' Market, she doesn't have the deeds for anything on the Ranch, so you must do this part on the Ranch proper by talking to Prehistoric Potterington instead.

Paddock/Pen	Required Levels	Deed Cost	Resources Needed	Construction Experience	Maximum # of Animals
Small Dinosaur Paddock	42 Farming 45 Construction	100 beans	1,000 Wood 1,000 Vines 1,000 Stone	3,000	6
Medium Dinosaur Paddock	76 Farming 80 Construction	500 beans	25,000 Wood 25,000 Vines 25,000 Stone	4,000	4
Large Dinosaur Paddock I	98 Farming 90 Construction	1,000 beans	75,000 Wood 75,000 Vines 75,000 Stone	5,000	3
Large Dinosaur Paddock II	104 Farming 90 Construction	1,000 beans	75,000 Wood 75,000 Vines 75,000 Stone	5,000	3
Breeding Pen	55 Construction	1,000 beans	100,000 Wood 100,000 Vines 100,000 Stone	5,000	4

Basic Information

Just like at Player-Owned Farms, animals can only be sold on the Grand Exchange and will stack in the bank if they are unchecked. Once you have checked the animal, it will take up its own slot within your bank and, while it cannot be sold on the Grand Exchange, it can be traded with players around you.

Clicking on either a paddock gate or an animal will open the animal interface. Within this new window there are several bits of information. At the very top in capital yellow letters you will see your animal's name. Clicking an arrow to either side of the window will enable you to scroll through all the animals in that pen. See the list below for more about the various information on the interface.

• Purple - The second tab along the top will change the interface so that you can add and remove animals to the paddock without closing the window. Using the "Remove" button at the bottom of this interface will always close the window and place the animal in your inventory.
• Silver - This area provides a view of the animal in question and informs you of its age above it.
• Dark Green - Here you will find several bits of information including what breed it is and which pen it belongs in. You will also see their Weight, Speed, and Attractiveness ratings. As of now, these stats do not matter. In the future there may be contests where animals are graded on these stats.
• Light Blue - These bars inform you of the animal's Health and Happiness. Keeping these at higher levels increases the likelihood of the animal breeding.
• Yellow - This tells you what types of food your animal will eat.
• Red - traits are shown here. Clicking on one of them will give you a description of the trait.
• Dark Blue - This is a random description added to each pet. It is just here for amusement.
• Light Green - At each new Growth stage this button will become bright yellow. Clicking it will allow you to earn experience and (usually) gather resources from that animal.
• Orange - When bright yellow, your pet will have an Illness. Clicking on it will enable you to check your animal's symptoms and cure it.

Caring for the Animals

Now that you know where to obtain all of the animals for your Ranch, let us now go over how to take care of them all.

Growth

Animals on the Ranch will each progress from egg to elder. The amount of time between ages, and the amount of Farming experience gained at each threshold, varies by species. Note that if you miss gathering experience and resources for one of the growing stages, you will still obtain it when you gather at the next one. For example, if you put an Asciatops egg in a pen and do not check it until it is an adolescent, you will receive both the 12,500 and 18,000 Farming experience, as well as 130 Spark chitin as appropriate, when you gather the produce.

Also be aware that the experience value will alter depending upon the animal's Health and Happiness as well as boosts. The example above would only be correct under the condition that the asciatops' Health and Happiness were both at 100%! The values for experience below are assuming that your animal is both 100% Happy AND Healthy and you do not have any boosts active. A sick animal with 0% Health and Happiness will only provide 10% of the harvesting experience. Please see the Health and Happiness section below for how to improve your animal's stats.

Health and Happiness

Opening an animal's interface will present you with two percentage bars just below their image. These bars let you know how happy and how healthy your animal is. Keeping these at higher levels increases the likelihood of the animal breeding and the amount of experience received when harvesting produce from them. These bars are affected a few different ways: Honey and Milk, Food, and Illness.

Beehives and Milk

Though they are not obtained the same way, how you use these items and the functions they perform are similar. To use them on your animals, you do not need to step into the pen with them, just use the item on the specific animal. This will increase the appropriate stat(s) and consume the item. Note that diseased animals and eggs will refuse to eat these items. For more information on these resources, view the appropriate section of our Player-Owned Farms special report.

Food

When you have animals in a pen you will need to add food to the trough for them to eat. If they are given the proper food, animals will heal slightly and become a little bit happier each time. In turn, failing to feed them will cause these stats to lower and for them to potentially become sick. Animals consume different amounts of food based on their pen size (see the table below).

Small Pens		Medium Pens		Large Pens
Animal	Food Consumption Rate	Animal	Food Consumption Rate	Animal	Food Consumption Rate
Frogs	1 food every 18 minutes	Jadinko	3 food every 36 minutes (Averaging 1 food every 12 minutes)	Brutish Dinos	6 food every 54 minutes (Averaging 1 food every 9 minutes)
				Apoterrasaurs
Salamanders		Varanusaurs		'Tops
				Rexes

Each trough can hold a maximum of 1,000 pieces of food. These can be added noted or unnoted and from inside or outside of the pen. Clicking the trough will give you the option to select how much you wish to deposit. Adding food to a trough will automatically turn it to mush. As a result, you will not be able to reclaim any food put into them, but you can withdraw the mush created. Each animal will eat at least 1 type of mush. You can see these foods listed on the interface below the Health and Happiness bars. Or you can see the table below for which types they eat.

Frog		X
Salamander	X	X		X
Jadinko				X

Rex			X

Where to Obtain Food

• Flowers
  • Woad leaves are arguably the only flower worth using as food on the Ranch or at Player-Owned Farms. They can be bought in any quantity from Wyson the gardener in Falador for 25 Coins each.
  • It is worth mentioning that several flowers are used to make honeycomb varieties that improve the stats of an animal. See the appropriate section of our Player-Owned Farms guide for more information.
• Insects
  • Pet shops are the best place to obtain two items that can be turned into buggy mush: Beetle bits and Flies. None of the items stack, but they are fairly cheap from the store (expensive from the Grand Exchange, but doable if you have the coins to spare). Because the stock of the pet stores is independent by player, it is recommended to buy all of your insects from the pet shop in Yanille, the pet shop closest to a bank. To speed this process up, you can use a BoB familiar, even a Pack yak and make use of its Winter storage ability.
  • Players with 103 Farming can plant Stinkshroom spore in a mushroom patch to harvest later. A fully grown patch yields 40 Stinkflies. Unlike the Beetle bits and Flies sold in pet stores, Stinkflies stack in your inventory.
• Seeds
  • Barberry seeds can be bought relatively cheaply (typically less than 50 Coins each) on the Grand Exchange.
  • When harvesting Arc berries from the patch on Tuai Leit, it is typical to receive 6 to 10 seeds of the berries that were harvested.
  • Seeds can also be collected in large batches from your Kingdom, however, this takes a bit of time and it is of better value to sell other collected products and purchase seeds outright.
  • Pickpocketing Master farmers - just West of the Manor grounds or within Draynor Village market - is a quick easy way to get a handful of various seeds as well.
• Meat - must be raw
  • It is important to note that while many of the species you can raise eat meat, this doesn't include fish! None of the ranch animals will eat fish.
  • Cows can be slaughtered North East of Lumbridge or West of the Crafting Guild for quick collection.
  • Grizzly bears can be found in the East Ardougne Mine near the Player-Owned Farms location allowing for quick slaughter and collection.
  • After completion of As a First Resort, you can buy several raw meats from Chargurr; including 6 Raw bird meat packs that contain 50 pieces each.

Illness

Like animals encountered in the real world, animals in your Ranch Out of Time can become sick. Thankfully, treating your animals in Gielinor is far more simple. You will know that your animal is sick because the "Cure disease" button at the bottom right of their interface will become yellow and allow you to click it. If you have unlocked the status icons upgrade from the Farmers' Market, sick animals will have a skull icon above them in the pen.

This will open a new interface which will allow you to check various parts of your animal and to administer treatment when you have discovered its ailment - you do not need any special items to treat your animals. Some illnesses have similar symptoms, so be sure to check each body section. Thankfully, an animal cannot die due to their illness; but their health and happiness do lower as a result of it and they will not breed. Curing the animal will earn you Farming experience based on the animal and its age: 5% of its harvesting experience (meaning eggs cannot get sick) for the stage, or 1% if it is an elder. For exact experience, see the table below.

Animal	Baby	Adolescent	Adult	Elder
Frog	25	37.5	75	222.5
Salamander	150	225	450	135
Jadinko	150	225	450	135
Varanusaur	275	412.5	825	247.5
Brutish Dinosaur	550	825	1,650	495
Arcane Apoterrasaur	10,500	525	1,575	472.5
Scimitops	625	900	1,775	540
Bagrada Rex	625	937.5	1,875	562.5
Spicati Apoterrasaur	650	975	1,950	585
Asciatops	700	1,050	2,100	630
Corbicula Rex	750	1,125	2,250	675
Oculi Apoterrasaur	805	1,207.5	2,415	742.5
Malletops	875	1,312.5	2,625	787.5
Pavosaurus Rex	950	1,425	2,850	855

If you administer the wrong treatment, the animal's health and happiness will drop. You will then be presented with the examining options again and your animal will have rerolled their symptoms. Despite displaying new symptoms, the illness will not have changed.

Most of the time animals will randomly become sick on their own, but it is possible to make your animals sick by failing to feed them. This comes in handy because in order to complete the "Animal Whisperer" task, you will need to cure 100 animals of their ailments. Animals with the Sickly trait, for example, are also more likely to fall ill.

Perks

On each of the pens you have the ability to add a Farm totem, purchased from the Farmers' Market (200 Beans). But what do those do? When an elder of any given species is placed into a pen with a totem attached to it, you will enable its tier 1 perk. Placing a second elder of the same species within your other pen and adding a Farm totem to it will enable the tier 2 perk. See the table below for what species can enable what perks.

Animal	Perk Name	Tier 1 Perk	Tier 2 Perk

Breeding

Now that you have your first few animals and you've raised them to adulthood, you can begin the arduous task of having them reproduce. Note that only Adults and Elders can breed and the breed type do not have to match to produce offspring, only the species type - ie breeding a Phantasmal poison frog with a Golden poison frog will work. When you first start working on the Ranch, your animals will only be able to breed in the breeding pen, and only after you have constructed it. You can make it possible for the animals to breed in the other pens by unlocking that ability from the Farmers' Market.

To make sure your animals are capable of breeding, be sure you have at least 1 male and 1 female of your chosen species in the pen, ensure they are fully healthy and happy, have food in their trough, are not diseased, are adults or elders, and then proceed to wait. After a certain amount of time, they will produce offspring. It is suggested to promptly move it to a normal pen to grow if you were breeding them in the breeding pen. This is because the pen can only fit 4 animals in it. Once there are 4 in the pen, no more babies can be bred.

Unlike the breeding pen, the normal pens also do not have "Failure Mitigation". This is where after 5 failed breeding attempts are made, you are guaranteed to have your animals breed. You can increase your chances of breeding by enabling the tier 1 or tier 2 Rabbit perk on your Farmers' Market and by using animals with the Studly and/or Virile traits.

Be aware that placing 2 animals of the same sex within a breedable pen may still "produce" offspring. In this situation, the animals will "have decided to raise a child together and have adopted a baby". It is not SUPER common to occur, but it is still possible. This method of "breeding" is not affected by the failure mitigation mechanic.

It is possible to keep track of which animal breeds you have produced in 2 ways. Firstly, you can view the breeding log by clicking on the dog next to Prehistoric Potterington (Stan the sheepdog), or you can pick up a copy of the Manor Farm breeding log from the table just inside the Manor farm. Depending on your settings, adjusted via the cog in the top right of the window, you can click on any of the animal breeds and announce if you have or have not managed to breed it. All animals bred will appear vividly colored, while unbred ones will be faded out.

When you obtain a "shiny" breed of an animal, you will need to wait until it is an adolescent before you can see the difference within the pen and animal interface. While a lot of ranch animal breeds can only be obtained through breeding, all of the shiny breeds fall into this category. In the breeds and species table, the shiny breeds are noted with an *. If the animal is in your bank, inventory, or a trade window, it will look like a normal animal of that species, but you will see "Shiny!" written just below the sex if you hover over it. Note that using a shiny animal to breed will not increase your chances of obtaining another shiny animal! You will still need the appropriate traits to increase your chances.

Traits

As seen on the interface, every animal has between 1 and 3 traits. These traits actively influence actions of your animal. For example, animals with the Sickly trait get sick more often than most animals. See the table below for the various traits and what they do.

When breeding, the most helpful traits include the following...

• Shiny, Glistening, and Radiant - Increase your chances of producing a "Shiny" breed. Note that the chances stack so having 1 of each will give you a 10% increase.
• Good Breeding - Increased chance of producing different breeds.
• Genetic Instability and Genetic Mutation - Increased chances offspring will have multiple traits.
• Studly and Virile - Increased chances of breeding.
• Charmed, Immune, Jovial, Joyful, and Robust - Increased Health and/or Happiness

After completing the breeding log, one of the most efficient trait setups for attaining beans and produce consistently would be a breeding pair where both have the Immune and Joyful traits (to maximize experience and harvest output), and then picking traits like Nice but Dim or Producer traits on them depending on what the player is most looking to gain from the pair. Because the odds of the offspring having a trait from the parents is high, these benefits will generally pass onto the offspring to maximize your gains. As an added benefit of the Jovial and Immune traits, the odds of the animal getting sick despite having no food drop significantly, and they will continue to produce offspring at a normal rate as long as they remain healthy.

Time

As mentioned before, the breeding pen has a failure mitigation mechanic. This guarantees that you will have to wait no more than 5 breeding cycles before you will obtain an offspring, assuming there is space within the breeding pen. Each species' breeding cycle lasts a different amount of time. Thus you could be waiting 5 minutes for a baby or up to a week. Once you have purchased the ability to have animals breed outside the breeding pen it is still suggested that you use it. In addition to being another place where the animals can breed, they are 5 times less likely to successfully breed a baby in any other pen, their breeding cycle functions as 5 times longer in other pens, and the failure mitigation mechanic does not apply to the other pens. The table below displays the data for breeding within the breeding pen.

Species	Breeding Cycle	Maximum Breeding Time
Frog	3 hours 20 minutes	16 hours 40 minutes
Salamander	16 hours 45 minutes	3 days 11 hours 45 minutes
Jadinko	11 hours 40 minutes	2 days 10 hours 20 minutes
Varanasaur	13 hours 20 minutes	2 days 18 hours 40 minutes

Malletops	21 hours 40 minutes	4 days 12 hours 20 minutes
Pavosaurus Rex	23 hours 20 minutes	4 days 20 hours 40 minutes

Selling

Now that you have produced some offspring, you will need to sell them to the appropriate buyer. When selling animals, not every animal will gain you the same amount of beans. Though you can sell at any age, for all species, adolescence is the age that will award you the most beans. See the table below for base bean prices you will earn for each age group.

Around the clearing with Prehistoric Potterington you will notice various NPCs. These are who will purchase your animals.

• The person North East of Stan and Prehistoric Potterington will buy 12 animals from your Small pen and reset daily.
• To the North West of Stan and Prehistoric Potterington is the person who will buy 8 Medium pen animals and reset every other day.
• And on the South West of Stan and Prehistoric Potterington is the Large pen buyer who will purchase 6 animals and reset every 3 days.

The buyer who will show up when a location resets is initially based upon what animals you have in the associated size pens. If the pen is empty, it will default to the lowest level animal for the size. If the pens have different types of animals in them, however, you have an even chance of either one showing up.

Alternatively, you can speak to Prehistoric Potterington about Contract options to have the opportunity to advertise that you are are looking for a specific buyer. These are done for each pen size individually and can be reset to the standard game mechanic by speaking with her again.

Animal	Buyer	Age
		Egg	Baby	Adolescent	Adult	Elder
Frogs	Anphi (frog collector)	10	21	108	91	75
Salamanders	Steven (salamander commander)	36	72	360	306	252

Brutish Dinosaurs	General Bentnoze (brutish dinosaur buyer)	207	414	2,070	1,759	1,449
Arcane Apoterrasaurs	Glout (arcane associate)	193	387	1,935	1,644	1,354
Scimitops	Doric (scimitops handler)	211	423	2,115	1,798	1,481
Bagrada Rexes	Daya (bagrada rex buyer)	221	443	2,214	1,882	1,550
Spicati Apoterrasaurs	Wizard Ilona (spicati selector)	230	459	2,295	1,951	1,607
Asciatops	Evil Dave (asciatops buyer)	252	504	2,520	2,142	1,765
Corbicula Rexes	Thok (rex wranger)	274	547	2,736	2,325	1,915
Oculi Apoterrasaurs	Odd Billy (bird fancier)	301	603	3,015	2,562	2,110
Malletops	Moia (malletops master)	327	655	3,276	2,785	2,293
Pavosaurus Rexes	Irwinsson (rex rider)	360	720	3,600	3,060	2,520

Note that in addition to age, there are several other factors that influence the amount of beans you will receive for each animal sold. From lowest to highest, these include:

• -10% - Nice but Dim trait
• -5% - Surly trait
• -2% - Limited Effency trait
• +2% - Lucky trait
• +5% - Unlucky for Some trait
• +5% - Animal farmer outfit
• +10% - Master farmer outfit
• +10% - Fortunate trait
• +10% - Buyer's desired breed
• +10% - Buyer's desired trait
• +25% - Buyer's desired breed and trait
• +52% - Highest possible bonus - Lucky, Unlucky for Some, and Fortunate traits + Master farmer outfit + desired breed and trait

Alternatively, you can sell any animal to Baby Shakes, a baby troll found on Granny Potterington's porch at the Player-Owned Farms. This baby troll will happily purchase any animal for 10% of the price that a normal animal buyer would. This provides players with a way to sell animals when the buyer they need is not present, as unlike other buyers, Baby Shakes is always present at the Manor farm.

While Baby Shakes is the official name of this person, his name varies. Every time he buys an animal from a player, he will say, "YUM! Me like [animal name]!" The troll's name will then become the name of the animal he was just sold, similar to the way the Baby troll pet's name functions. For example, if a player were to sell Baby Shakes a salamander named Bernie, the troll's name would become Bernie.

Resources and Potion

Upon reaching a new growth stage, animals will typically give you resources in addition to the experience discussed earlier. All animals on the Ranch will provide produce when they reach the ages of adolescent, adult, and elder. The following is the amount of produce obtained without any boosts, such as the Unlucky for Some trait. All of these items are used in the Herblore skill.
