I absolutely love the look of certain animals.
When we were picking up our Jacob's Sheep we also encountered some Angora Goats. Trust me, we would have liked to take the whole herd home... but we didn't. Anyway, we've been reading about and researching a lot of different sheep and goats, and some of the breeds that we see photos of online and in books are amazing. However, since I only like to show my own photos here in my posts, I have not shared photos of some of these breeds... until now!
ANGORA GOATS
Angora Goats are named after Ankara, Turkey and are commonly raised for their fleece, known as mohair. Much like people shearing sheep, these goats get "hair cuts," as many as two per year. Personally, I love the look of the coats and of the horns. What d you think?
A NICE SIZED HERD
In total, the people had twenty one. Seventeen of them were sale, and they all pretty much looked the same. I think that without different colored collars on them, I would not be able to tell them apart. Here are a few photos with more goats in them.
As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:
proof-of-angora-goats
Using a purple bead-headed mohair leech I had one of my best days flyfishing from my float tube one February day here in Oregon. It was a deadly fly for rainbow and brook trout. Nobody else on the pond was having luck that day but I had the secret tied to the end of my line. The hair of the angora goat gives the leech pattern an irresistible lifelike movement in the water. Great photos of some very cool looking animals. I want a few acres with a couple of them to run around the property. ;)

Interesting. Actually, we bought a pregnant doe. Will be giving her a haircut soon enough. I could ship you a free gift if you like to tie your own flies! We live close to Cotter, AR which claims to be "Trout Capital USA." A lot of little rainbows in there, but the brookies are built like salmon.
Used to love it when the Salmon ran in from Lake Michigan back in Wisconsin.

That is a most brilliant idea! I do like to tie my own flies and would love to have some of your angora doe's hair. I will write a post about it! And hopefully catch a fish to show how effective of a pattern it is. If there is enough I will give away a fly or two to our community at @myhuntingfishing. Thank you!

Forgive me, I should have also said I'd gladly make you some flies as well. And I can send you some Steem to pay for the shipping costs.
Those are some really nice fish! I hope you will consider posting a fishing story with the #myhuntingfishing tag!

we had angora/mohair goats when I was growing up. The billies can be a bit of a pain during rutting season. They are nearly impossible to keep from the females and climb, force though and otherwise figure out how to get around fences and other barriers. And they often butt you. But, great animals overall.

They are great for clearing thistles and brambles from paddocks, and for keeping the grass down in rocky areas where mowing is impractical.

They are beautiful! I wish my husband would let me have some! He's just not a fan of goats. He lets me keep a dairy buck and two does to eat the stuff in the pastures the sheep don't eat and to milk when the cow is dry, but that's about it. Enjoy them!

Angora goats look like ram. They both takes resemblance with the same horn type. I already mistaken it to a ram in your previous post, not until I see this post. From those pictures, the animals are hairy, can their fur be collected as fibre too??

Hi @papa-pepper I love goats too. In the mountains in Norway there were two large herds that we would meet on our walks They are fun, but especially for a kid can be quite impressive and overpowering if they all come in to you The goats ate all the young shoots and shaped the landscape Due to politics they no longer keep goats in those parts and we no longer have the same views We really miss the goats!

40-50 animals I least I reckon, they are playful and insistent, I remember being chased by a whole flock, they probably just wanted to have fun:) They are really part of an old scenery of mountain farming in Norway: we used to love to go and help out with the milking, feeding the little ones etc. Dream life for a kid.

Cool pics! I have had the privilege to travel to 35 countries so far in my lifetime. One place I have been is Turkey! Been to the big cities, Ankara and Istanbul. But the best part is when we travelled into the countryside as I am a country boy. Since we moved to the Philippines I have left many things behind, but i am sure I brought my CDs of digitized 35 mm photos from my many trips. Since joining Steemit I have been looking for them. Sadly no joy!
We visited farms, travelled by boat and long cruises by land.
Got to see these goats. Steem Acres is the place to be!

If you ever end up doing something with the goats hair that’s definitely something I’d be interested in. I’ve been trying to switch to more natural fibres with my clothing at home. It’s a topic that’s hot with me right now. Wool is great but I’m interested in some of the more exotic fibres too.
