ainst get-rich-quick schemes in-
volving chinchillas.
Promotion material has des-
cribed the profit potential of
chinchilla raising in glowing
terms. As a result, many people
have turned to the Department
for information. In reply, the CD A
makes these points:
1. Raising chinchillas for pro-
fit is no job for the amateur.
It calls for a high degree of skill
and experience. The successful
breeder must have a sound under-
standing of his animel's habits
and needs, as well as a thorough
knowledge of the desirable char-
acteristics of breeding stock.
Proper preparation of pelts and
other marketing skills are also
essential.
2. It is difficult to rear chin-
chillas on a commercial scale
in basements, garages 'or other
makeshift accommodation. In
other words, large profits from
the sale of pelts are unlikely
while operating under such con-
ditions.
3. Statements to the effect that
females will produce five or
six kits each year are open to
serious question. The national
average is between two and three
kits from each breeding female.
4. According to DBS figures,
the net average price (that is
sales .price, less dressing and
selling charges) realized for a
chinchilla pelt was $13.17 in
1965, The net average In the five
years, 1961-1965, was $13.55.
Good quality breeding animals
usually cost the commercial pro-
ducer from $100 to $150 a piece.
5. There is no officially rec-
ognized grading system for live
chinchillas. Grades such as
"Triple A", "AA", and so on
are simply scoring methods used
by individual breeders.
6. Persons who wish to learn
more about the chinchilla busi-
ness should write to the National
Chinchilla Breeders of Canada,
P.O. Box 640, Carleton Place,
Ontario.
