A new yoke.

 Instead of putting a lot of time, money and effort into making or buying a real yoke for bright and bold,  i decided to make them one from a 2X6 board and some 1/2 inch plywood. It wasn't too difficult to make and only took a few hours, and it is a nice to not put too much work into something that the calves will soon outgrow.

  1. Very ingenious! Do oxen not mind the feeling of a yoke because they have thick hair, or is it just because they are trained to be used to it so young?

    1. to a pair of oxen who have been working together since they were very small, it is just a fact of life that they have to wear a yoke.
