Angora Goats
There is a lot of information available in books and on the web for information on the breed, care requirements, and properties of their fiber production, so I am just going to tell you my personal experience with Angora goats. They are pretty much all personality, and each one has their own way of relating to me. Some are all swagger, some are super shy and run away, but all of them will absolutely SWARM me when I am bringing them any kind of grain or other treat. So they are super easy to catch to give them their medicine and trim their hooves four times a year and shear them twice a year. They are remarkably healthy and disease-free.
My goats are so rewarding to interact and play with them. Some are so tame they won't leave me alone when I'm out in the barnyard working with them. One will playfully jump on my back, another will rub its head in my hair, most of them come up to look at me and see how I am doing. I think they like to smell your breath, like they are thinking "what have you been eating, I want some!"
