I have animals...wouldn't have it any other way.

BTW, do you have goats (I am fond of goats).

I use to raise Angora goats...beautiful creatures and with only the large breeding males did my hubby have to help me take down to trim hoofs...If not cross bred with another type of goat they are always pure white with curls and waves..Sheared them twice a year (a professional shearer). They shear mohair...The year my husband passed away we were up to almost 80 in the flock....started with 18..

if you google angora goats you will see how beautiful they are....not at all like other goats, originated in Turkey.

Texas has the largest population of angora's...virtually millions...

That most expensive fiber Cashmere also comes from goats...
