Very often, sellers call rabbit fur a beaver or a chinchilla rabbit. Of course, Rex fur has nothing to do with a beaver. The confusion most likely went because of the original name of the rabbit breed “Castor Rex”, which translates as “King of the Beavers”. A chinchilla is called a rabbit for the similarity of fur in structure and quality.

What is a rex rabbit?

Rex rabbit appeared relatively recently in the fur market. The breed was bred in 1919 in France. Breeders kept all data secret. It all started by accident, when the owner of the rabbits, Desir Jalanion, drew attention to the mutation of the fur cover in rabbits of the breed “Belgian Giant”. The chestnut fur was very similar to the color of the beaver's skin, and upon careful examination, everyone agreed that the fur was very similar to the chinchilla. This is where the name “Beaver King” or “Castor Rex” came from.

For the first time, Rex got to the court of breeders-breeders in 1924 at a specialized exhibition in Paris. A year later, French rabbits were crossed with German rabbits of the usual breed with non-dominant genes. A new breed with fur in the form of plush was registered and gained rapid distribution in European countries. As its subspecies, breeders also bred a breed of mini-rex.It is 2-2.5 times less by weight of a standard rex.

Rabbits are bred in Germany and Spain. But basically, most rex for producing fur skins is made in China. As a result of crossing beavers with other rabbit breeds, there are about 20 shades of fur.
