Hi
Sorry for late response. I'm in Wales.
I have problems with Angora hooves too, I think it is to do with the fleece growth. The two seem to be connected. I was doing their hooves every 7-8 weeks, but I'm changing that to every 5-6 weeks instead.
All mine, milkers and angoras, tend to run for cover when it rains.
We're not sure what we would do with the offspring. They would probably go for meat. I agree milking could be a problem if it looked feasible, but we tend to keep our Angora bellies clipped anyway. Stops it from getting too tangled when we get round to shearing time.
Old shep - we don't have vehicles suitable for transporting livestock, need to get that sorted out soon! If you were looking for a buck, maybe have a look through the classified sections of some of the smallholding mags, and try one of the breeders from there? There are normally a couple of them advertising.
