The first yak calf of the season!
We had our first calf on Sunday, June 10th. It is a little heifer calf, with one white sock on a hind leg. This is Lacey's third calf, and she is a very good mom. We went out with the tractor to catch her and give her a vaccine a few hours after she was born. The calves are very small at birth, and we have never had to assist a birth. This one weighed in at about 30 pounds, and is super cute. Hopefully we'll have several more to come this summer!
