Today Mom and I went to Salem IN and picked up 2 Angora wethers.

This is Bobby and Billy. Bobby is the one in front, Billy looks more like a Buck then a wether since he was wethered late in life. I am hoping that wont affect his fleece too much. Bobby's fleece I think is going to be really nice but I truely dont know a lot about Angora goats so will have to wait till spring when I can shear and spin some it.
In these 2 pics you can really see how stout and buck looking Billy is. I was originally going to name them Bobby and Buddy but Billy still has some of that billy goat smell going on so I called him Billy instead. I am really hoping that goes away now that he has be cut so if anyone knows for sure please let me know.
I have 3 litters of babies bunnies as well I need to get pics of them posted. They are all part of my Colored Giant projects. 2 litters are Tans and Otters and the other I was hoping for blacks but all the colored babies are going to have white spots so if anyone stays it will be REWs. Hope you enjoyed the pics of the new kids I will try to not let it be so long before I post again. God Bless Dustin
Good to hear from you again - and that you haven't gotten completely out of rabbits after your herd reduction. Hope you are doing well.
