I am a fur buyer and what I see sometimes is when people put up their fur they use the wrong size stretcher and that kills the price. I'm always trying to help /show people the best way to put up their fur so they can get maximum dollar. No matter where they sell them because people work hard for their fur.
There is nothing wrong with the stretchers in the picture in fact if you had the same width from shoulder to butt WILL cost you money. Maybe years ago that didn't matter but today that is not what they wantExample of blue skins. Not my pic, but a good example. Poor choice of stretcher too, stretcher should be the same width from the shoulder to the butt. Of course if you sell whole to a local buyer, blue skin is not an issue........rubbing is as the season goes on.
PS: I am not going to be buying very many coons this year so I would recommend calling /talking to your buyer before you pile up bunch of coons this year
Didn't realize that, thanks for the heads up. It's been almost 10 years since I've shipped any. Appreciate it.
No market for coons this year? Never got much for green in years past, but it did help pay for the gas.
Problem for a lot of us is that we have to get rid of the coons before we can catch the cats.
I was always told earlier the better for the coons. They lose color the later in the year.
Yeah, piss all over themselves, etc.
