Farm Terms & Financing
We need to sell several junior bulls so you might just get a very good deal here in April or May.
We also have 2 very nice 2017 Imperial heifers(sold out).
The more you spend the better deal you might get.
2025 UPDATE
Our animals are linebred to the greatest Foundation bulls and cows in the North American yak genepool. They work great in this prestigous 35 year breeding program but they will excell on unrelated females. That is the ultimate reward of linebreeding programs (hybrid vigor on unrelated animals). So consider a LDR bull to upgrade your program.
We have a selection of 5 year old bulls and one 8 year bull that are exceptional.
LDR BUFFALO BILL. Shiny 8 year Imperial bull. Great conformation and hooves with great temperament. This bull is incredible. I will put him up against any yak bull in North America. His mother is a daughter of LDR BLACKBERRY K074 the mother of LDR DR.LOCK O086 the greatest NA yak bull ever.
$15,000. But call if you are serious about yaks breeding.
3 shiny 2 year Imperial heifers. $4,000 each. (SOLD)
3 Super Wooly 2 year Imperial heifers. $4500 each. $12,000 for the trio. THE W0OLY TRINITY. Photos soon.
7 yearling bulls to raise for meat $750 each. 5 SOLD. 2 FOR $1,000 EA
3 yearling heifers Royal and Imperials. SOLD for $10,000.
SNOWDRIFT Imperial Trim $10,000.
WHITESIDE Royal 8,000.

At 76 and after spending 35 years breeding yaks I need to cut back on my yak herd. I love yaks and want to keep 2 breeding herds totaling 16 females. Take advantage of this and arrange a significant purchase.
The entire herd would be for sale to the Chinese government or the Tibetans if they have been following the incredible breeding program of Living Diamonds Tibetan Yak Ranch and can recognize the power of 35 years of a multi trait selection program in taking this gene pool of imported stock to new heights.
In the rush to buy up and slaughter yak herds for the growing meat demand the results of 35 years of pedigreed registered yak breeding may be lost and with it the genetic diversity that can only be maintained with verified pedigree.
