This is Brown Sugar being petted. He is our wether from our grey Angora doe Angie and our reddish-brown Nigerian Dwarf buck Cody. Brownie produces gorgeous brown cashmere type fiber which is fairly long in it's length and soft as can be. |

This is Angie, our Angora doe. She has gorgeous long mohair fiber that is a very grey color. She has been bred twice to our Nigerian buck and produced two black bucklings in addition to Brownie. |

This is one of the fleeces shorn off of Shama. I has the cashmere fiber and the guard hairs still in the fleece. I shear him once per year. |

This is Shama. He is our black Cashmere wether. He is strictly used as a fiber producer for dark cashmere fiber. |

This is Mr. D, our most recent Nigora wether out of our Nigerian Dwarf buck Cody and our Angora doe Angie. I am looking forward to using his golden cashmere-like fleece next spring! |

This is our new soon-to-be wethered red Angora buck before being sheared. He has a gorgeous red mohair fleece, although he is good at getting hay into it. |
