Many spinners love the English Angoras, but also, they focus on the Giant Hybrids due to the large size of rabbit, the extra fluff to clip every 3 months and prepare to spin.
The Hybrids are a cross of the German/Giant and French. The reason for the cross is to get color. As you know already, the German and Giants are ONLY REW. However, new imports of pure German have come in black. Therefore, the other colors are not available without a cross. Many people like to have the black, agouti, fawn, and other colors.
Below, you can appreciate two cute Giant Hybrids. One is Agouti and the other Black. They provide lots of wool for spinning! These Giant Hybrids are gentle in nature, so they are truly Gentle Giants!
