Abby's fall fleece

I think Abby has the best fleece on the farm. She is a red Angora goat. The luster of it is just amazing. When I was washing it yesterday I thought maybe this fleece would not have that luster like last year's. But once it dried, WOW!! It just glows!

Washed kid mohair




I just LOVE kid fleeces! They have such beautiful luster and oh, so soft! I could go for a bed made from kid fleeces. :)

I have both white and black (the grey) kid fleeces available for sell.

Solomon and his 'ladies'

Solomon, a five year old black Icelandic ram. I just purchased him this fall and am very pleased with him! He has a good, respectful personality and the most incredible fleece I have ever seen! His fleece is so heavy with thel! So excited to have him on our farm!

Cookie, a yearling black mouflon Icelandic ewe. Also a new addition this fall. Nice heavy, soft fleece.

Daisy, a seven year old black spotted Icelandic ewe. Also a new addition this fall. She is a very nice ewe with wonderful fleece! 

Here is Daisy's fleece!! Looks almost like Merino! It is a little short, I should not have sheard her, but was not thinking. Next year I won't shear her in the fall and see what her spring fleece looks like.

Cocoa, a two year old moorit Icelandic ewe. Also a new addition this fall. Gorgous fleece on her.

Ursula, five year old moorit, grey Icelandic ewe. Also a new addition this fall. A very friendly ewe with very nice fleece.
