Hi: In answer to your posting about seeing angora ferrets in NH - They came from Quality Ferrets who can answer your questions better than we. However, we purchased two of them a few weeks ago and are delighted with them. They are expensive because they are difficult to breed and are imported from Europe. We understand that their soft fur grows to 3 to 5 inches in length as adults. Lars Eriksson's home page has a photo of a full grown Black-self angora. You can reach him and Quality Ferrets at <[log in to unmask]> Mary & Joel & the magnificent seven [Posted in FML issue 1602]
