Welcome to our website!

MCBA, Inc. is an international organization of chinchilla breeders with chapters and clubs spread throughout the world. Its function is to provide instruction on the humane care of chinchillas in their production and to help commercially market and promote all types of chinchilla pelts and products. To achieve these goals and purposes, research is carried on, market surveys are made, publicity is released, publicity funds are set up in preparation for the market, and a general orderly plan is followed.

Quality standards for all variations of chinchillas are set with emphasis on increasing and maintaining a high standard of excellence in the industry. Regularly scheduled seminars and show competitions with experienced judges are held to educate the breeders and compare their animals with others throughout the country.

Genetic articles and research is done to further information for chinchilla breeders and veterinarians to help maintain the health and well-being of our animals. A newsletter is published periodically to educate and guide our membership.
