Dog groomer hack- use a comb to separate the hair from the skin so you know you're not going to cut the skin
Ariel Boschet why not just use plastic clipper guards?
This makes me want angora bunnies even more. I'll have to learn how to spin it too. Take care - Marcie
I sure wish I was not allergic to my sweet angora bunny - the cat and dog absolutely loved him, too. I was mistakenly told that he was she, so Agnes became Angus before I returned him to the breeder. What a sweetie. I found that I could detangle his knots by gently working from the ends toward the skin. It was time-consuming but a great incentive to keep up with it regularly.
Rabbits are hypoallergenic..most likely you’re allergic to hay or something else
@@ligaskirbauska8652 Nice to hear, But being allergic to cats and dogs, yet okay with my own, makes the symptoms familiar. Having the cat, dog, and Agnes, the bunny, might have just pushed me over the tolerance limit. He lived inside the house and had newspaper in hisBernards
He will be a year old this summer some time. I had no clue what to do with him when he was dumped on me. The sad thing is I had trimmed a lot off of him. You seen the pic of him of how I received him lol. Great vid hun good to see Bun Bun again I will have to have you make me something out of his fur so I can always have a bit of him with me. But boy when he was dumped on me he was wilder than a march hair and would fight and claw and bite lol.
You did a great job with him! They have to be fully clipped every three months and it can be quite the chore...he got wet when he knocked over his water so that is why we had to clip him so quickly. In the end I did all of the savable fiber and we took him to a dog trimmer for his legs since it would stress him less just to have his legs clipped. It took five minutes to finish him up and he was much more comfortable. I think I will do the legs and belly that way every time!
I keep watching these videos in the hopes that I will get intimidated by the grooming and not start with an Angora but I just fall more and more in love with the breed SOS
Omg same. I am besotted! Just got my first one a few days ago! I’m so in love.❤
Spinning so great ..I never could Get the hang of it . All I tried to Spin was wool. It is so great to see it being done and to see that wonderful little angora rabbit. M subscribed....just found your channel. Well done. I learned so much just watching this one video.
He is so adorable I also got 14 bunnies Angora that came matted I ended up clipping the Mets off carefully and now I have matted fluff to put in my shoes as a liner or in my boots which is really nice I just kind of felt it it more and then put it in the bottom of my shoe I'm very interested in your show this weekend so I have resubscribed
Felting! What a great idea!
And it keeps your feet just the right temp
I love this bunny!!!!! I am just learning to spin, so I might need to get one.
I’m getting a angora rabbit next week!!
I found this very educational. Thank you! If you ever let rabbits outside the home during springtime, do they need flea preventative?
He’s very calm.. is he a hybrid.. I’ve pet indoor angoras too for almost 4 years.. and mine are cage free.. no cages.. and fully trained.. I only clip once a month or 1 and half months.. I don’t spin my bunny’s wool coz I need to learn to spin.. anyway, thank you for sharing..
Oh there are lots of.videos on u tube how to.drop.spin...
If nothing else do that thingnwith the barbed needles.
Hi! I just read your comment. We have one E.A. rabbit and are trying to figure everything out as well. Have you learned to spin already? I have a bag full of wool and need to learn how to spin. Do you have any pointers? ☺️
Have you thought of using the pieces you can't spin for stuffing(pillows, etc.)?
Birds like this for their nests. Dort gebe ich die verfilzten Teile nach draußen.
OK 🐇second cut/ correktin cut, to look after nice, for birds 😁
Mmmm, interesting.
We raise English angoras on our homestead. We've got 10 with babies coming.
Aw! I just read your post...do you spin all their wool or do you sell some of it? We only have one E.A. right now to learn the process and figure out the best care, and set up before adding any more. Ours is a real sweety and loves grooming time. I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts on care and set up if you'd be willing to share. 🐇
I found with my jersey woollies, using an razor knife works better then scissors. Try it you'll like it. :)
Cute bunny! ♥
Isn't he?!
I am looking to buy a spinning wheel. Can you tell me what kind that is? Great video!
Thanks for sharing I enjoyed seeing the process. I would be so scared to cut their fur, afraid that I would cut them like you said.
I'm getting two English angora doe's and a buck at the end of the month. Im so excited
hi so excited
Use a 10 blade Andis clipper, those scissors are bound to cut the bunny.
You have an adorable angora-bunny!
Hello! Super cute Angora🥰 Do you have any recommendations for brushes and clippers for trimming the fiber? My Satin Angora is due for a clipping
We use a very soft dog brush and sewing scissors. Easier with a small thin blade than a big thick one. Go slow and you will do fine.
@@dirtpatcheaven Thank you for your tips! ❤️
Hello! I was thinking of your channel, and there you go!
Well good! Hope you liked the video!
We just got two English Angoras about a month ago. I was trying to pluck the hair on one and I just couldn’t handle how it sticks to everything. I am just planning on cutting from now on. They are outdoors though and I’m a little nervous about cutting them now when it’s still so cold here in MN.
Hi! I live in MN too and have one English Angora. How are yours doing? I've had a bunny before, growing up, but this is my first Angora. He's worth the extra work!
I love rabbits
Super gorgeous bunny i have a angora jersey wooly baby 🐰
Oh fun!
Well he doesn't seem nervous despite those scissors he's all yawning. Just waiting for his haircut. Lol
can i use shaving for bedding? And what is a good feed option for a single angora to start with?
What are your thoughts on salt lamps lights for the house??
do you have any english angoras for sale?
Ok
Cut on top of the hand so you can see the blades
That is a great idea. I cut really thin strips and I can see the blades.
My husband and I have 3 Angoras. Two males and one female. Both boys are fixed but they still fight like they're not. :/ We keep them separated because of this but yes, they are VERY easily matted. Mine are not calm like this little guy. They fight when I want to groom them.
Oh no! Which type of angora are they? English, French, Giant, Satin?
@@dirtpatcheaven They are English. I have their papers. Our female looks just like your little guy in this video. 😍 She's an alpha girl too. Shy? Nope lol.
How many ounces is one shearing? and are those Russian eared bunnies? they come from the coldest regions of the 7 continents - Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Australia/Oceania, Europe, North America, and South America. As the bunnies grow do the ounces of fur change?
This is an Angora Rabbit. We get about a grocery bag or two of fiber per shearing. Not sure what the weight is.
Hola donde puedes comprar esa hiladora porfavor?
Can find in Lilongwe Malawi ??
I don't know? Maybe too hot for them there?
Where can I find angora rabbits to purchase
Where did you get your spinner from. I'm going to need one? Also.. dog hair? Real dog hair?.. makes me wonder if all the hair thats comes off my sable GSD could be spun.
The soft undercoat of your GSD is very spinable. But the long outer guard hairs are not as spinnable. My GSD shed enough twice a year to make another dog practically.
I'm also curious about the spinner
Is it true that angoras can eat alfalfa hay because of their higher nutrient needs
Well any rabbit can have alfalfa hay just before 6 months, but I would presume they could eat alfalfa hay
Wie viel Wolle gibt ein Angora im Jahr? thx
It depends on the rabbit. I get enough off of one rabbit for all of my angora fiber needs. Some people use more than I do but I always have more than enough. Usually one full plastic grocery bag per clipping.
Hey. Is that a French angora buck/ just curious.
I love rabbits. Eventually i want to get a rabbit.
Sorry if i didn’t spell everything correctly
I believe that he is English angora because he is smaller in body than a Giant German and has more fiber than a French. Also French angoras have more sheen to their fiber than he does.
I would agree this is an English. I don’t think the French have the long hair on their ears.
It's a German. The ears have a flop like the lop the Germans are bred from. The ears also have very little fluff, unlike an English.
What color angora is he?
Black. I know it doesn't look black but that is what it is called.
Wool? Rabbits have fur. Sheep 🐑 have wool
