Clipping Time.

Angora rabbits need clipping every 10-12 weeks. This not just to collect fibre, the rabbit will become very matted if neglected and that is a very sorry sight to see.

It takes about 20mins to clip Daisy. She gives about 55gms of pure white fibre and is very easy to do because I have had her a long time and she is very used to me. Rabbits don't like strangers.

 Don't have a fit when you see this picture. It is impossible to do a nice neat job, getting the fibre off is the important thing. Daisy does not mind what she looks like. I do have to make sure she keeps warm at this time of the year. In the summer the rabbits are glad to get rid of their long coats.

This scarf was knitted from 100% Angora so soft and warm to wear, my favourite.
