Chinchilla

Free gameMarket price about 95 carrots

Silver-ticked grey, bred to look like the animal it is named after. Frosty and elegant.

The real Chinchilla

The real breed comes from France. Bred in France by M. J. Dybowski and shown in 1913, for fur that looks like the real chinchilla's: slate blue at the base, ticked with pearl and black.

What the standard asks for

  • not a dwarf
  • upright ears
  • a normal coat
  • a solid coat
  • a coat in the chinchilla family

A rabbit that meets every point counts as a Chinchilla; among breeds it meets, the game counts it as the one whose standard it meets on the most points.

What the judge looks at

Once a rabbit meets the standard, the judge scores how close it is to the breed's ideal. Every point away costs it.

  • size: 50 on the game's 0 to 100 scale
  • ear droop: 0 on the game's 0 to 100 scale
  • ear length: 50 on the game's 0 to 100 scale
