Champagne D'Argent Rabbit Breed Profile

From Charlet Simpson, Washington

Group	Commercial
Varieties	Standard. Bluish white with longer black hairs throughout the coat, giving the rabbit the appearance of old silver. See Also: Picture Gallery
Weight	Males: 9 to 11 pounds, Females: 9 to 11 pounds
Physical Attributes	The body is medium in length and round. The ears are upright. The color is what makes the Champagne D'Argent so special. Kits are born pure black and they gradually turn silver as they get older. Only the nose, the ears, around the eyes remain somewhat dark. An old Champagne D'Argent might be entirely silver except for the nose and the ears. See Also: Picture Gallery

Coat Type and Grooming	Champagne D'Argents have a short, easy to care for coat. Weekly grooming with a slicker brush are fine, except during shedding season when bi-weekly grooming may be required.

From La-Poppasmurf, Louisiana
These Rabbits do not handle heat very well and should be kept cool by misting or fans. They are a wonderful breed and are usually very docile.
