YAKS

THE YAKS ARE THE NEWEST ADDITION TO OUR FARM.  THERE ARE ABOUT 3000 IN
NORTH AMERICA.  NOW THERE ARE SOME IN INDIANA.  THEY HAVE BEEN
DOMESTICATED IN TIBET FOR MANY CENTURIES.  THEIR APPEARANCE IS VERY
UNIQUE WITH GRAND HORNS, BUFFALO HUMP AND LONG HAIR.  THE FEMALES
WEIGH 600 TO 700  POUNDS AND THE MALES WEIGH 1200 TO 1500 POUNDS.

ON THE LEFT IS PAT A THREE YEAR OLD COW.   SHE IS A TRIM.   
ON THE RIGHT IS OUR THREE YEAR OLD BULL, RUDY.  HE IS A
ROYAL YAK.

OUR TWO NEW CALVES ARE STILL BEING BOTTLE FED.  ON THE LEFT IS
TRUDY A TRIM AND ON THE RIGHT GABY, A ROYAL YAK.  BOTH ARE
FEMALE AND ARE THE FRIENDLIEST LITTLE CALVES I HAVE EVER SEEN.  
THEY WILL NEED TO GROW UNTIL THREE YEARS OLD AND THEN THEY WILL
START BREEDING.
