Angora Goat Crazy at the Iowa State Fair

 

 

Iowa State Fair has been the center of the world recently.   Those who are running for the president of the United States all congregated at the Iowa State Fair, some even had the pork chop on the stick in their hands.   

 

For the Angora goat enthusiasts, Iowa State Fair is the location of the Colored Goat National Show where all the top goat people attend.  

 

 

The judge for the national show is Dr. Fred Speck from Texas, Dr. Speck is the ultimate Angora goat authority.    Next to Dr. Speck is our ultimate rabbit authority Allen and Randy who are exhibiting their goats under Eureka Mohair moniker.




Another familiar face for rabbit enthusiasts is Eric and his partner Gabe who also drove a long way from PA to exhibit their Angora goats.
