German Angora
Rabbit
This breed, while not ARBA recognized, is common in the United States and Canada. It looks much like the Giant Angora. The majority of German Angora are ruby-eyed white or albino. In 2006, several black German Angoras were imported to the USA and Canada. Many hand spinners have bred the German Angoras with another type of colored Angora (or other breeds in some cases) in an effort to acquire color in the more dense nonmatting German-type wool. These resulting rabbits are called German crosses, not to be confused with the rabbits called German Angora hybrids. Briefly explained, a German hybrid is a rabbit that has a 3 generation pedigree with only 100% German Angoras listed as ancestors.
