Regarding the hay issue you could try possible the same as I do with my sheep?
I mount a hay rack at nomming height on the outside of their door so they can eat all the hay they want, but as it comes through a few strands at a time they get less loose dropped bits to tangle up .
You would have to make sure that this wouldn't put bunny off eating enough hay though. It's fine with a sheep as mine would have to be dead to refuse hay and will go to any means possible (and some I though IMpossible) to get to it. Buns sometime just don't bother if it is tricky though.
Good luck with the spinning :thumb:
If you are determined to spin angora then I personally would rather you have your own pair of buns to clip as long as you are prepared for a lifetime of hard work.
I have always wanted to spin angora, but will not buy in the stuff as I KNOW it will have come from poor caged creatures and I will have no part of it.
I also don't have time in the day to cope with such high maintenance buns so for me, for now it remains a dream :wave:
