Thank you for the help guys. Just a little overwhelmed of steps to take and when. everyone kinda found there own way of what works for them and now i am trying to figure out where i am at and what could be the best way.


I skinned one coyote last night but i tried to turn the ears and messed it up bad. forgot the step of folding the ear in half and taking a scalpel to cut the membrane to get to the inner ear.

  Still have the other two to skin but decided to freeze them as i ran out of time messing with the ears on the other one.  Hoefully i can get at them Thurday and they dont slip.


I decided it wont be a good enough pelt to display so i wil just take it to the furbuyer. Is it best to stretch it or when i am done salting let it dry folded once?, i bought 2 stretchers when is best to put it on the stretcher?  And if i want to tan my own pelts just for display is there a time i need to put it on the stretcher. Thought i read mainly stretch it for the market.


Thanks again i will figure this out eventually, i have to i have supplies coming
