Champagne d'Argent

Champagne d'Argent Weight: 9–12 lb. ARBA-accepted varieties: Standard The Champagne d'Argent is one of the oldest known rabbit breeds, having existed in the Champagne province of France for over 400 years. At that time known as the French Silver for its silvery coat, it was once prized for its pelt in spite of the fact that it was a common breed. Kits are born pure black and begin turning silver gray at about 3 weeks. By 6 months old they are typically a shade of silver gray. Champagnes are not common in America today, but are increasing in popularity each year.
