All important agreements are confirmed by a peculiar custom called _heskani_.

A deer-skin is spread on the ground before the caste committee, and the person making the agreement bows before it a number of times.

To break an agreement made by the _heskani_ rite is believed to involve terrible calamities.

The Khadras eat the flesh of animals and fish but not that of birds, and they do not drink country liquor.

When an estate is to be partitioned the eldest son first takes a tenth of the whole in right of primogeniture and the remainder is then divided equally.
