Angela Gets a Haircut







Carol has a chestnut agouti French Angora doe named Angela who is a real beauty.


Angela won Reserve In Show at the San Jose show in March under Doug King.



At the same weekend in the San Jose show, Angela won Reserve In Show again under Jordan Miner.



In April at a show in Colorado, Angela was the only French Angora in the entire show and she won a Reserve In Show again under Wendy Lane.



Angela would have won more top honors if it were not for the strong competition from Betty's English Angora Aurelia and Carol's American Fuzzy Lops Green-Burb Wish and Green-Burb Moody Blues.  When some of the best rabbits are all wool breeds, the chance is that only one would be selected.  It is very unusual for a judge to pick two Angoras or an Angora and another wool rabbit to be the Best In Show and the Reserve In Show.
By June, Angela's coat is very dense but lost some finish.   It's time for Angora to get out of her heavy coat and go into the next phase of her life.  




Angela gets cut down and getting ready for motherhood.   Can't wait to see her little ones coming out of nest and going onto the show table.  




Look at this gorgeous color and texture and the length of Angela's wool, can't wait to see what Carol will make from it.
