Nice. I always loved good fox pelts.

Hey what are ya's using to hang the hides from there? What's all over the ceiling?

These are from WV Also..........

Good job alscalls.


those fox are already dried and are just hanging from hooks so i can take the pic.

those tubes are part of the drying system. there are special boards so you dont have to turn the fox, coyote and cats. you put them on a boards fur side out and them insert a hose into their mouths.
the boards have special grooves cut into them for air circulation. theres a small motor that pumps air through the area where the hoses are coming out of.

it really speeds up the drying time.

Sorry I was not clear on that one. Been a long week.

yea, never heard of it.  Cathyrn, if you designed it, you best get a patent on it :)  Sounds like a great idea.
