Anyone Raise Angora Rabbits?

They are beautiful. I am hopefully getting a couple more. I love mine. Rabbits are very sweet.

they ARE sweet! I'm so glad to have them. the breeder I got the white rabbits from spins, teaches classes, and sells yarn. I plan on taking her spinning classes this winter after I've had these gals a while. they are just so much fun to watch, just as entertaining as the chickens!

Its super fun. Their fibre makes the best hats!

I can tell you a funny story about an Angora rabbit. At least i thought it was funny. My husband was wondering around a large fair and he stopped to watch a spinning exhibition. This woman had a large pile of fleece on he lap. She was combing it off and as she did she spun it. All of a sudden this plie of fleece moved . It was a rabbit. Startled my husband. He thought it was just a pile of wool. Well, it was. But the wool was attached to a rabbit.

Here soon I will be getting a pair of tort English angora's and I'm going to try to learn how to spin the wool
