I have always wanted goats to add to the menagerie of animals at Wolf’s Head Farm and fell in love with these two little guys at a wool and fiber festival in Berryville, Virginia. They were so cute that I just had to have them. Addison wasn’t as thrilled with them as I was but with a little convincing two young angora goats came home with us. How can you resist them? We named them Mike and Ike and they make us laugh with their antics.
 Mike and Ike are angora goats and wonce shearing season arrives we will be shearing them and selling the fiber, which is known as mohair. Shearing season is generally twice a year, Spring and Fall or every six months. According to www.angoragoat.com “angora goats are the most efficient fiber producing animals on earth, producing up to 25% of their own body weight in fiber annually.” Mike and Ike are not dairy goats, they are strictly fiber goats. Mike and Ike came to us from Pinxterbloom Farm in Landenberg, PA.
