JO'S AWESOME ANGORAS

QUALITY NOT QUANTITY

HELLO..........

My name is Jo Ann. 

I have a small  registered rabbitry in  Clendenin,West Virginia about  20 miles north of Charleston where I raise and show English Angoras, English lops and holland and fuzzy lops.  I have a trio of Holland lops and 5 fuzzies.  I am an ARBA member. I raise a few to show and always have a few left to sell. My buns are bred for quality and type to meet ARBA standards. All are pedigreed. My EA have some GC lines including Silvertones, Adore, Angels, H-O-M, Candys and of course Awesome Angoras. Almost every color including BEW and brokens.

 Each and every breeding is contemplated to produce the best quality buns to meet ARBA standards. I only breed about 6 litters or so each year. If you  are interested in a specific color or breeding let me know.

Since I have severe carpel tunnel in both hands I felt the need to downsize my angoras, so I have only kept about 12 of my best to show and will sell 95% of the new babies for their well being and mine. I will still breed now and then to keep my does producing though.

I now have a side projest of breeding lionlops (small lop with a mane). They are doing great in the UK and I am following their standards.

Here are some wool facts :

1. Neutered Male rabbits produce more wool

2. Hand plucked yarn is considered top grade plus easier to spin and more luxurious.

3.All angora is valuable, you can card short pieces or matts and use them for felting.

4.Angora yarn is very delicate, a fine yarn holds together better than the heavier yarn.

5.Angora is one of the finest luxury fibers available.

6.Angora wool does not need to be cleaned before it is spun.

7 Most white angora wool does not need to be bleached.

8. Baby wool should not be combined with adult wool.
