WOW Look at how great you've gotten around the eyes,ears,& mouth others videos I couldn't make out the eyes,ears or mouths interesting.This is the most neatest line up of a dry vid ive seen thus far. Very well maintained skinning and fleshing well. My 1st day looking into this & some of the other vids I had seen from others weren't very pretty. Also I can actually see or rather make out how the inside of the furs skin becomes so smooth. You even clean them and know how to tame the discoloration & noone else even mentioned a wash. I didn't know that u could wash them during the prepping process. The vids I had seen had chunks of flesh still attached It made me not want to ever wear furs again ever but thanks to you sir ive been turned back to wanting a fur now... GOOD FOR YOUUU YOUR INCREDABLE... WOW!!!! THANKS

It's not always cool down here during trapping season. How do I keep my furs from spoiling when I hang them. I only have a garage to hang my furs and a 50° - 60° temp might not always be possible. What are my options? Thanks for the info?

I'm out here in CA and put up fur to tan. I'm a hunter and we call coyotes and bobcats. I probably will never sell fur out here, but I enjoy skinning, fleshing and stretching the furs we get. One thing I noticed is that you keep your skins fur side in. Do you sell them that way? How does a fur buyer know what he's getting without seeing the fur? I have to make sure I balance that drying time with being able to turn the fur back to fur side out for display. Just curious if you sell fur side in.

I just boarded my first two skins, Opossum dried in three days which was boarded 7days after my first raccoon which was still sweating. I don't have a dedicated place to put them so I have them in my basement with a fan blowing on them hopefully to keep any bugs off them. The temp around 40ish or colder with a space heater on. I am guessing all the questions are coming from people that the animal is not dry in the 5 days you noted. It has been now 15 days and did not feel it sweating any longer but was still not dry yet. I was thinking the 60ish degree temp you noted would have been too warm and bacteria would have started to ruin the pelt.

Good day my name is Chris I love your videos I've been watching them for years unfortunately I only recently subscribed... I'm up in Canada been trapping for a few years now but still bit inexperienced, caught my first otters this year got them skinned and stretched but I'm smelling a little sour along the base of the tails I think I took too long to get them skinned out. I've been really busy and from what I've been watching and reading the bacteria is causing hair slippage on the tails I'm wondering if there's anything to remedy this before it's too late if its not already. Was hoping to have them tanned and keep his wall hangers.
