Bemerkenswerte Fakten
The name 'd'Argent' (silver) refers to its silver-colored fur — actually a mix of blue-white short hairs with longer black guard hairs.
Zuchtempfehlungen
- Average litter 5–8 kits; mature weight 4.5–5.5 kg.
- Slaughter at 12–16 weeks for the best balance of meat quality and pelt value.
- Calm temperament makes management easy; good first commercial breed.
- Common pitfall: relying on extensive 80-day cycles instead of 42-day intensive cuts annual productivity in half.
