An experiment was undertaken on 138 German Angora weaners divided into 3 equal groups of 46 each, kept
individually in standard size iron cages and provided similar housing and management. After first shearing at the age of 50 days; rabbits of the group 1,2 and 3 were sheared at 65, 70 and 75 days interval, respectively, from second to seventh shearing. Parameters recorded were body weight after shearing (kg), wool yield (gm), staple length (em), fiber diameter (/Lm), medullation (%) and guard hairs (~%). In each group, significant gain in the body weight was observed from second to seventh clip; however, between groups this gain was significant (P
