New to bunnies! English angora!

[2BirdsFarm]

My fiance and I are the happy owners of three English angora bunnies. Two are sisters, and are a creamy fawn with lilac noses and lilac tails... And feet. The other one is white with hot pink eyes.

We are hoping to get into fiber arts, needle felting, spinning, etc., and all that kind of thing. One of our girls might be a lynx?

That's neat, you will have to post some pictures when you are able.

We have a pair of French Angora rabbits- buck is white and doe is fawn, both are super friendly and we are learning to spin the fiber.

Learn something new everyday. I new people raised angoras for their fur but I always thought that meant the pelt was used. I internet searched spinning rabbit fur and found out what you were talking about. It said angora was 7 times warmer than wool. Good luck with your endeavor.

thanks, it has been a slow process for us- mostly to find the time to sit and spin the fiber. The bunnies themselves are easy to care for- we comb them every other week- takes maybe 20 minutes to comb both rabbits. In fact the buck is my avatar picture.
