Nice, curious as to what you do with them after that?

I hang mine on an old coat rack with my bobcat hides. Wife hates it, I love it. Hoping to get enough good pelts to make a comforter some day that has fabric on the upper half and pelts on the lower half over your feet and legs. I saw one in a catalog once and even my wife liked it.---------SS

I've always wanted to make a comforter out of red fox. Mange has been a big problem around here for the past ten years and has really cut the numbers and quality. Maybe someday. Our coyotes here are nowhere near the quality of western coyotes. When you get yours finished make sure you post a pic, I would like to see how it turns out.

Pelts are done for free, I have to pay for the chemicals (deal is a long story) I will sell most of the pelts, lots of people travel though here for Hot August Nights, Street Vibrations, and other stuff like that.

If there are any I really like I'll keep them hang them from the elk mount, or some thing that will look good.
