Yep. It's a Royal Persian Angora. You can't even buy them in North America.

 

[LoveBug]

oh my gosh its sooo furry. it's cute though.

 

[momenteller]

Okay, I may be in the minority here, but this one just looks like its blowing fur to me. The tail is kinda pretty.

I do like the curly ones, though.

 

[Charliespooks]

I love the spunky fur sticking out around the ears. Itsh soooo cute x3

 

[AznTiger]

wow thats the most expensive Ive seen. i never knew chins can get that expensive. wows

 

[moon]

I think he's really cute, but he's over a year old and 434 grams? I don't think so.

 

[ticklechin]

I love the tail! Other than that it looks like a chin that got a poor grooming.

 

[Cuddlebug]

He's cute, but tiny. I wouldn't want a breeder that small. Are all of them still small like that?

 

[CrazyForChinchillas]

Whoa. It's kinda cute, but way too expensive, lol.

 

[Jenn]

wow! I love the ears and tail. Can't imagine paying that much, though...

 

[javachin]

Yep. It's a Royal Persian Angora. You can't even buy them in North America.

Is this due to a restriction, or they're just not available here?

 

[EMSChins]

I think they are cute but have no desire to own one - what's the point unless you have the talent and resources to work with such a mutation???

Give me a nice big, fat standard any day!

Besides doesn't this mutation remind anyone else of an old man with copious amounts of ear hair??? Ewww!!!

This is the fur that will go over very well with spinners. Donna who spins fur has asked me in the past to save all the fur I groom - especially on the long-furred animals because it will be easier to spin.

The original ranchers do not want anyone in the US to breed them so they are strictly for overseas customers.

yikes... that would burn a hole in my pocket. I'd rather use that money to spoil my chins

 

[CJR]

If I had more money than sense, he would be mine. So cute. So ridiculously, stupidly cute. The only chin I've seen that's cuter is Tab's Vanilla Nut.

 

[Godofgods]

personaly i find it dispicable that anyone would breed and sell pets jsut for profit, dispite the price.

 

[Riven]

There may be a market in the pelt world for them eventually, at one time mutations where worth nothing, ranchers would give them away or put them down.

An animal is only worth what someone will pay for it. Obviously people pay that much.

Really? Breeders should not make a dime?
