A mohair kid for you to drool over

Looks quite pretty. Is it a common practice to take out and sell Mohair wool in Australia?

Adorable. I was looking at some pygoras a couple of days ago. They are pygmy crossed with angora

Wow, it's so tiny. I wish him the best. Thanks for sharing.

Aw, such a sweetie. We’ll call him Mohair Sam!

I'm sure the mohair wool is much harder to work with than regular fleece. I hope he is successful with his flocks.

That is so very cute. I can imagine how the fleece will look when it matures.

How beautiful! That is so cool.

Oh, he is so cute. Hope she may be able to establish this breed.

I like looking at goats' wools. Look pretty.

The wool of the mohair goat looks nice.

What a sweet picture. I bet their wool is very soft. I wish your nephew well in getting the breed re-established.

I love baby goats and always tell my family I want one in our apartment, but I'm just kidding. This one is so very cute.

I hope that your nephew is successful in establishing the breed again. That's an adorable kid. Just feel like holding it tight.

Wow, that's so cute. Mohair wool is expensive in Hong Kong.

I would love to touch his coat.

I had once the most awesome mohair wrap. I often wonder what happened to it. The several times I went in winter to the US with my husband I used it as a scarf for my head and ears. I would love to buy one again if I could get one now.

Awww, how cute. Such a shiny curly coat. Too bad I am allergic to wool.

@JudyEv He looks big to me. Are all newborns that size?

Angora goats are one of my favorite breeds because of their fleece and that they are not destroyed to get the hair. I design and make collectable bears that I eventually sell. Part of the reason for the drop in popularity in Mohair is that it is expensive, and people are kind of strapped for funds because of the cost of gasoline and other day to day items. Oh, and the wool, whether in clothing or stuffed animals, is very durable and sturdy. Teddy bears that date back over 100 years are still in great condition and highly collectable. I haven't seen any mohair clothing that dates back that far, but I know there is clothing that is still around that date back over 100 years. Mohair fabric, for teddy bears, is running over $200 a yard here in the United States. When you figure that a quarter of a yard is needed to make a bear and then add the cost of the artist's time and the other things needed to finish the bear the cost of buying the bear is over $100.00 American. I have no idea how much clothing made of mohair wool costs, but you can figure that a suit would cost dearly...as would a over coat or a lady's coat. I have a dear friend that owns a mohair fur fabric selling business and she reminded me of the shipping costs and also the cost of picking up the fabric from the import place (for the life of me I can't remember the place that imports go through, and the importers pay duties and have the stuff inspected for possible illegal stuff trying to be snuck in. It will probably come to me after I post this.) Anyhow the costs mount up considerably. But I do know that the fleece from the goats is well paying and that they can be sheered twice a year. The kidd is adorable! If I lived in a place where I could have "pets", I would have the angora goats for critters that I can spoil like I spoil the cats. Thank you so much for posting the picture, it brightened my dreary day a ton. I'm recovering from having broken my ankle in three places and having to have surgery to add plates and pins to stabilize it. I've been on crutches for 3 weeks and am already bored and depressed from being inactive. Thank you again for posting the picture!!!!

Really!?? That’s nice. How much the value of mohair goats in your area? Cause here is $300.
