About Our Animals

Growing up with animals is the most wonderful thing. What would we do without them? I learned to knit and thought that it would be really neat to have angora rabbits. With the little space I had in our back yard, they were the perfect animal for us to add. I was able to get two mixed angora bunnies from a lady and instantly fell in love with their wooly personalities. After doing some research I came to the conclusion that the German and German Hybrid angoras were really what would work best for what I was wanting; animals that produces a lot of high quality fiber, and have great personality. Since purchasing my first two Germans I am more and more convinced that my research has paid off. They have more then paid for themselves and fed my fiber hobby well.  My husband would testify and so would my basement.  I would love to share with you how they can work for you.

Thee Hare's Boys

Cadence Windsor Farms Cadence: Born 5/05  REW (Red Eyed White) 100% German Buck.  He is always looking for a good massage at the door.  He has a nice body with a good set of shoulders.  Every time I sheer him I am impressed again by the amount of crimp he has. 








Klondike Bungalow Farms Klondike:
Born 1/09. REW 100% German Buck.  Recently purchased from Erin at Bungalow Farms.  Nuf said.  This last 90 day shearing gave me 380 gr which shows that he is no slouch.  He is still nice and fine, and very clean.  He was such a good boy while I sheered.  As I turned him while sheering I could help but notice he is a hunk, maybe even a hulk.  I am sooo pleased he is here on the farm.   









Thee Hare's Thimble: Born 3/07 Black 98.5% German Buck.  I love his texture it is creamy.  There is just something about the color and the way it lays on him that makes you have to "feel that".  The best way to explain it is like waves of grain while the sun shines on it.  He is a black bunny, but I would almost describe his yarn as blue.











Mo Thee hare's Mophibosheth : Born 4/09. REW 98.5% German Buck.  He is such a sweet bunny.  Out of my best doe Boquer Tove.  I look forward to seeing his potential.  He is a very kind bunny with a sweet personality.  Mo is a treasure!!!   









 Harvest Moon's King Darius: Born 2/09. Black 88.8% German Buck. I love this little guy.  He is sooo funny with such a sweet personality.  And he loves to go go go.  As you can see I had a hard time getting a good photo of him, because he is a busy boy.
  Recently I discovered how much personality means to me when I came across a bunny who attacked me.  That bunny will never be part of my breeding program.  All angoras should be kind and Never bite.  Yes all their personalities are different, but mean is not an acceptable quality.

Fudge:
Recently here from the other side of OR.  Fudge is a bit on the neurotic side, but very kind all the same.  All of my bunnies get to go out on these little supervised yard excursions.     








   

Thee Hare's Girls

 

Symphony Thee Hare's Symphony: Born 6/06  She is a REW Hybrid 98.5% German doe.  She produces lots of clean free falling fiber and her mothering skills are excellent.    Her clip was 368 total grams (13 oz). 









 


Harvest Moon's Belle
:  showing her good side.  Actually she doesn't have a bad side just an ear that shows the character of what is inside.  She is very inquisitive.  I really like her!  Her 90 day clip revealed 380 g of beautiful long fiber.  100% German REW doe. 










Windsor Farm's Schwanli: Born 6/07 REW 100%German doe.  I love this bunny!!  We just seem to get along very well.  She is so fun and outgoing.  She loves the romp around the yard, and continually runs up to me for a good rub.  She is a big bodied doe from great lines.  She is exactly the bunny for the vision I have for my farm.  Her and all of her potential have a forever home here.



 

Harvest Moons Olympia: Born 12/08.  REW 92.2% German Doe.  This gal is still growing on me.  I find her quite quirky.  I love her length on fiber.  She has already proven herself, as far as wool production goes well over registration weight.  I can't wait to shear her again.  I am temped to do so before her 90 day time is up.  She is really amazing.  I am so blessed to have her as part of my barn. 



Lizzie Thee Hare's Lizzie: Born 6/09  She is a Black Hybrid 79% German doe.  When I was growing up I had a pygmy goat named Lizzie she was so much fun.  I look forward to see what this little gal produces. 








 
Kittie Thee Hare's Kittie: Born 5/09  She is a REW Hybrid 74% German doe.  This little gal feels pretty dense to me right now.  I look forward to shearing her soon to find out her potential is. 
  One thing I love about the IAGARB system is, it is all about the record keeping.  I enjoy looking at what these bunnies are doing even at young ages.  


 
Goshen

Amber Angoras Goshen:
 Born 3/22/09.  63% German 37% Satin doe.   I was amazed to see all the luster when I gave her her clip.  She is beautiful!  Her fiber had rings of color all the way to the bottom.
  Thank you Amber and Cheryl for such a fun girl.  I can't wait for more shearings of this.  


 
Muffin
Muffin
: a torte doe only 50% German.  My children have claimed her as their own.  Her color has not faded, in the almost 2 years I have had her.  For only being 50% German she is very nice.  As time goes on she is getting more and more sweet.    Her pretty mascara eyes make her quite the lady. 









 

Rabbit info

     Research, Research, Research!! Do your homework before you buy. Be prepared to invest your time in any animal you consider purchasing.  This list by no means exhausts all that you should do for your bunnies, but are key points for more research, and before getting your own bunny.

  • All animals need lots of clean fresh water.
  • Do your research about what foods are available in your area.  Along with a good quality rabbit pellet I also give my bunnies hay to prevent wool block (hairballs for rabbits).
  • Cage space and shelter adequate to your specific area.  Taking equal consideration for the cold and the heat.
  • Time to shear each bunny every 90 days.  Time to enjoy and get to know what is normal for your bunny.
  • Worming on a regular basis.
  • Treats and TLC to help them produce to their fullest potential.





     

    Pleasant Hill Farms Goat Gallery

    Pleasant Hills Farms is striving to breed hardy, stylish, well covered goats. We have a small herd consisting of quality colored and white angoras.  I love these goats for their quirky personalities who suit me just fine.  The bucks are always full of themselves, but are gentle and easy going herd sires.  The does are protective mothers, but are gentle with the other kids.  And the kids are just tooo much fun!  Aside from individual personalities each animal has a fiber quality all it's own.  Whether open or flat lock, smooth, silky, soft, and dense they rarely have a bad hair day!

    Bucks on the Hill


    MOBI:
    2002 creme dark belly.  CSPN Wolf x CHF Victoria Mobi is the Grand Ol' Man of 8 yrs.  His fiber this fall shear was awesome, it is still soft and silky with luster galore!  He is possibly the sweetest buck I have ever met, he never challenges, only wants rubs and scratches.  He is just a big ol' teddy bear.  I am blessed to have him live here at Pleasant Hill Farm. . .   Thanks Mobi










    Red Lips
    RED LIPS:   Solid Red. Kair Ian x WGC Gemini  -  Since I keep a small herd I have only 2 herd sires.  Like peas in a pod, consistent coverage, density, shine and conformation.  All you could ask for.  Oh, plus personality. The friendliest bunch of kids all-round.  Red is a very nice buck and his kids are proving it.  Good job Red Lips (his name came from a movie I like).  Our two boys are a pleasure to be around.     Good Job Guys~
     

     

     

     Girls of Pleasant Hill

    Lil
    LIL: 
    This old gal has out produced herself for at least 3 generations, and I have them all.  I don't think I am stuck in a rut, but when you have something that works why change.  Rose her doe kid was 1st place out of 14 at OFFF in Sept. I can't argue with that.   Lil's offspring speak for themselves.  Lil will have a forever home here and probably most of her kids will too.  I wish I could give credit where it is due, but in all my searching I have not been able to come up with a past for her.  She is a teenager tho.    She will never want by me. Thanks Lil~







    Lil
         Jill's  Lil x HRF Karlton  4/2005 - silvery dense fiber is just one of the reasons she passed her inspection with flying colors.  As you can see by the pictures she also did extremely well at OFFF "09".  Although the judge said she was "quite fit"  I will admit that our animals don't have a food shortage. This is another of Lils daughters, she truly is a beauty.   Jill gave us a buck and doe kid from Red.












    Lucy Lucy:   CSPN Mobi x Lil   3/2006, "I love Lucy"  She has the most incredible fiber.  It is so soft and dense with great character.  And its hard to beat that luster.   Her fiber is sold before she is ever sheared.  It is lovely to spin and when its dyed it takes on a whole different dimension.














    Create Your Own

    Memo:  CSPN Mobi x HRF Jill   White c/f doe.  Well actually she does have color showing, she has one brown spot on her nose.  But her fiber is where the rubber meets the road.  It is luscious!  The doll hair people love it!  I have sent some off for processing.   It is a dream to spin.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Rose
    Rose PHF Red Lips x PHF Lil  (3/1/09) she is the daughter of my all time favorite doe Lil.  Rose has the most luscious fiber.  There is nothing NOT to like about Rose!   She has always been friendly.  If she will just leave me alone when I go in the pen~   I am not sure she can replace her mother, but I am sure she will give it a shot. 










     

    Create Your Own
    Spun Sugar is a lovely 2008 Reg. white yearling. Her fiber is just as her name implies, soft, silky, and incredibly dense with lots of character. She is shy, until the grain comes out and then look out, she will eat off your back pockets!  She is a keeper.











    Create Your Own
    Kira MHF Cavalier x MHF 425  (1/16/09)  Kira came to live with us after Black Sheep Gathering in 2009.  Not to mention, she took 3rd place at the Nationals 2009.  Pretty sweet!  She is just a super little doe kid.  I love her black, soft, silky curls.   I call her my "little Nubian" you can probably guess why (is that Kira I hear?  Yep!)  She will be held over for breeding till fall 2010.   Kira has outstanding lines & we are very excited to have her at our farm.  You go Girl! 
     












    Create Your Own
    Talulah:  Chenny x Tiffany    This lovely silvery black 2003 doe.  She produces nice babies who produce lovely fiber, great for doll hair, and is soft, silky and dense.  RBB doe.

    Goat Info

    Research, Research, Research!! Do your homework before you buy. Be prepared to invest your time in any animal you consider purchasing.

    • Before you bring home your angora goat make sure your fencing is adequate. Goats love to expand their horizons, and may impose themselves on your neighbors and their prized rose bushes. At the first drop of rain your goats will head for shelter it’s important to have plenty of sheltered space for each animal.
    • Make sure that fresh water is always available.
    • Salt is a must. 
    • Feeding good quality hay will result in good quality fiber. Doing you research in this area will greatly benefit your animals and give you piece of mind. There is a never ending battle between the hay and the fleece but careful placement and good feeders can minimize this problem. You will find what works best for your animals.
    • A little about grain. I don’t feed much. It’s used as enticement and treats on our farm.
    • This is what has worked for me and my herd hopefully these guidelines are helpful for you.
    • The F.A.Q page will have additional information.
    • Feel free to call or e-mail any time with any questions.  I am more than willing to share any information that will help you with quality care for your animals.
