Glory Farms LLC

Glory Farms LLC breeds yak in Towner, CO, Kiowa County and the high plains near Pueblo. Chris Stum and Jennifer Stum have been raising yak for nearly a decade, following guidelines from national livestock associations and ensuring each animal receives routine veterinary check-ups. Their herd grazes on wide pastures with access to three-sided shelters, and calves are socialized daily to encourage calm behavior and strong bonds with caretakers.

The farm emphasizes sustainable pasture management, using rotational grazing to support grass health and minimize environmental impact. Many of their yaks contribute fiber suited for spinning and craft projects, and the couple maintains selective breeding to promote sturdy conformation and gentle temperaments. All yaks undergo regular hoof trimming, dental exams, and parasite control to ensure long-term well-being.

With a focus on transparency, they share health records with new owners and welcome visits to observe daily routines. Visitors appreciate the farm’s quiet setting and the careful stewardship that underpins every aspect of animal care.
