I raise French Angoras and really need to get a handle on culling and using the meat and pelt.
I've been tossing the first crop of wool, harvesting the second crop and butchering after that... That generally puts me at around 4 months to butcher, but the skin seems too tender (fleshing is really difficult...).
Does anyone have advice on when to butcher for the best pelt, meat and wool from French Angoras?
Thanks,
Zinnia
