Bungalow Farm is pleased to announce that Bungalow Farms Furrari, is the first German Angora in North America to be tested at over 2000 grams per year. In March, 2008, Furrari was judged under IAGARB standards and received 97.5 points out of 100. Her tested wool weight over a 90 day period was 513 grams (18 oz.) or 2052 grams annually.

At Bungalow Farm, we practice selective and intentional breeding using the set goals established by the IAGARB standard of perfection. We strive to improve on body type, wool production and texture. Most of our animals are IAGARB registered meaning they have been tested and have met the Standard of Perfection. However, there is always room for improvement. Using breeding stock that is registered, consistency and excellence is our focus.

Members of the International Association of German Angora Rabbit Breeders (IAGARB) are using these new lines to improve existing stock in the United States. Currently, members are able to register animals with IAGARB. Registration is awarded on the basis of individual merit. Each rabbit to be registered must be performance tested and evaluated by an IAGARB judge.

Angora wool is often blended with other fibers such as wool and silk to provide texture and warmth. Spun alone, it makes a wonderful luxury yarn. It can be dyed as raw fiber or as yarn.

Prime angora wool is defined as wool of uniformly-long length with no second cuts. It is free of matts and stains, and longer than 2.5 inches. It is an excellent choice for fine, regular yarns of any ply.
