Anyone Recommend a Tannery?

[beagler]

I have a nice grey fox that I recently shot, skinned, fleshed, and dried. I'd really like to get the hide tanned. Not interested in attempting it myself. Anyone have any suggestions on where I might be able to send it?

I've had good luck with Gorlic's Trading in Warwick, NY. They advertise in FFG or google them for contact info

Quite a few NY trappers seem to like Tubari Ltd. , but I've never tried them.

I had some done at Moyle Mink and was really pleased.

As always, you have to do your part from skinning to shipping to ensure the best results. Good luck.

I've had multiple hides done and moyles mink farm in Idaho. The hide comes back soft and fur looks great. Ive also had furs done at usa fox and fur and its cheaper but that's about it. I guy I work with has done over 30 hides in the past 5 yrs, all from moyle with no problems what so ever.

after skinning and fleshing the hide, what is the next step I need to do in order for me to send it to a tannery? Salt? Dry on stretcher? Freeze? or what? Thanks

Stretch and dry.

 

[Catkiller]

SALT it, rub it in good then next day shake off the salt and rub in fresh salt. When it is about dry a day or two later then roll it up, box it and ship it to the tannery.
