Here’s a small yak in her natural condition. Pampered, of course.

Very cute little yak. Mine aren’t so “yakkish” yet.

I will play…my two gelding yaks! I was fostering them for a rescue that shut down, and here they stayed! The silver bay (red) is 34, the paint is in his mid-20’s. They are both with me until the end, when one crosses, so will the other as they have been together for 12 years.
They didn’t want to pose as it was dinner time

This isn’t his most Highland cow moment but he gets really hairy. His legs look like they’re wearing leg warmers when in full fluff mode.

We’re getting there! His October clip is quickly growing into his November clip. No sheets/blankets needed yet.

I call this guy my Amish Mini when his cheek fuzz forms the traditional Single Man beard.
Here he’s helping himself to the AYCE hay buffet:
The other 2 are more plush than Wooly Mammoth:

We don’t quite have the chin beard going this early in the winter, but it will come. Until then, here’s a placeholder of the end-of-season 2023 yak.

This is one of our yaks. I realize that she is a different species than the other yaks mentioned, but since she spooks at the wind like some thoroughbreds I’ve known, I thought she might qualify.

Yikes! It’s grown even more in a few days. He gets a 3D effect when the white sections grow longer than the brown. (Holy crap my hand looks old! It could be my mom’s hand.)

This is the rough coated yak. The other one is a smooth coated yak. She gets a lot of hair, but doesn’t get real shaggy. This year she got body clipped; it’s been wonderful.

My Connemara cross isn’t in full yak mode but his pony legs are fully fluffed out. So much so that as I was watching my farrier shoe him this week I asked “Is that leg fat? Or just fluffy?” (Fat as in stocked up/swollen). He laughed and said just fluffy!

I know a couple pintos who do that dual length winter coat thing!

Our old yak some years ago, at 30, also had double length grey over shorter sorrel hairs:

My AppX has spots that grow a different length than the rest of him.

That’s cool. I’ll have to look closer at Matilda’s Paint coat.
