[Django]-Django duplicate model definition/fields

class A(models.Model):
    #some fields here
    x = models.CharField()
    class Meta:
        abstract = True

class B(A):
    pass

A will be an abstract class, and you cannot use this class alone. But as I understood, you want to have two real classes A and B. In this case you need a third (abstract) class C. So they will inherit the fields from the abstract one and add extra fields to them.

For example:
suppose that abstract is C

class C(models.Model):
    # the common fields 
    class Meta:
        abstract = True
class A(C):
    #extra fields if you need or pass
class B(C):
     #extra fields if you need or pass

Make a an abstract model: 

class a(models.Model):
    class Meta:
        abstract = True
    x = models.CharField()

Also note that class names should be uppercase, so it should be A and B, but x is correct.
