Depending on how it goes this year, I may have some Coyote, Fox, Bob Cat and Badger to sell/ trade. I am hoping on tanning some of them, but no promises yet. It depends on how my body does and how well I can do what I do best. Have 6 farmers wanting me to do predator control, just have to see how my body holds out. It seams I am not 16 any more, no mater what "I" think, my body says different. Would definitely help a faulting budget on this end. Jimi
Just dried and stretched Jimi. Tanned would be nice (but more expensive) because then you could store it easier. It would roll up. I've recently found some pretty cool plastic air tight containers at Walmart that have entrance/openings on both ends, with snaps, and they are prolly 4 ft. long more or less, by maybe 8 inches deep, and they are on wheels. VERY cool for full skins, like that complete Blue/White Eared Pheasent i got in Montana. I'm hoping i can get the next Coyote skin in there by just clipping off the tail. Might have to take the head or hind ft. off too. They're not much use anyway, except for the wiskers.......make great tails for Coffin flies. mark..... >From: "Desert Eagle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Re: [VFB] Coyote tail hair... >Date: Tue, 5 Oct 2004 20:06:09 -0600 > >Was it just dried and stretched or tanned?
