A local person breeds an angora buck to a cashmere doe every year ...
it is more laziness than anything else - neither animal is breeding
quality ... anyway that is an entirely different topic! But the
resulting babies seem to have fleeces that differ depending on the
animal. Some lean more toward the angora and some seem to lean more
toward the cashmere. I know of one of them who is sports a very lovely
fleece each year (almost silk-like) - but others that definitely have
a so-so fleece not worth the effort.
