How Big is the Rabbit and How Much is the Wool?






One of the most common questions an Angora owner get is: "How big is the rabbit? Is there anything under all the wool?"


Quintana is in full coat, doing quite well in shows.



Quintana has two heads?


It's Quintana's brother Quinton, he used to look just like Quintana!




Here is a picture taken in July, see

Without the wool, an English Angora is actually very small, just look at Quinton vs. Quintana. 
   Why is mama Betty cutting off Quinton's coat?   As Kenny Rogers sings in his signature song "The Gambler": " You got to know when to hold 'em, Know when to fold 'em, Know when to walk away, And Know when to run".    With more than 10 full coats being maintained for the ARBA convention show in October, one needs to make choices of which coat to hold and which coat to fold.   When the two brothers are so much alike and competing in the same class, it makes sense to hold one and fold the other.
