Juvenile marten are same size as average adults by end of october.Its in your fur bible.Many studies done on it and verified by trapline experience.. Some older marten may have an inch or so in pelt length on an average adult. Individuals get heavier and rounder when living off a jackpot but pelt size is same.
Thanks, as a German Shorthair she specializes in birds but fills in nicely as a trap line dog. Although on the water line she's more of a hindrance than anything but she has fun!
I have had five knee surgeries on one knee, including two replacements. Also had five rotator cuff surgeries. I have spent many days in PT. What I have noticed about hip replacements many years ago is that the hip patients spend a lot of time on stationary bikes.
Get yourself a stationary bike to ride between PT sessions. If you have a temperature and/or excessive redness, immediately see your surgeon. Don't wait for it to increase. Infection multiplies very quickly, and it is difficult to cure. I spent months in a rehab hospital with a knee infection.
Enjoy your new hip.
We bought a recumbent bike. My wife used for a month before her surgery and after. It really helped her for faster recovery I think. She still uses it almost daily.
If they have the stock pans they’re fine. Use them. You’re just making more work for yourself that’s not necessary..
Oversized pans are only an advantage for exposed style sets. Mink, cats, etc. They can contribute to poor catches in buried sets.
Yep keep the pans on the new Dukes, I wouldn't go bigger. I have used the older Duke round jaw number two and their pan was a bit big but still used them and caught critters.
I was quoting Bearcat from a page or two back. My point was that FHA doesn't set "their" price. That price is set by the people doing the bidding. And was pointing out that at say land, estate, livestock or house hold auctions I have attended, I will have a "price" I am willing to pay. When said item reaches my price point, I am under no obligation to bid more because the seller or the auctioneer wants more.
Not complaining about price at all. G.
Auctions are for the buyer too. It’s the only reason we’d show up, hoping for a sweet deal. They’re trying to get the best dollar for their client, but buyers are trying for a good deal. When you say “their”, do you mean FHA? They do set a value on it……. So yea, I guess they do set their price…..lol. The bidders will determine how much over the set value it goes for. FHA does have “set” prices +/-10% or so. They won’t give fur away because there’s no bidders, it’ll be sold PT or next sale or sometimes sales after that. Eventually things gotta go though. Some of the stale goods was fetching pretty crazy prices. I think this was discussed early on or in one of the other FHA threads.
My rat boards are hardwood (thinner that commercial) that is varnished then waxed, I use no belly wedge for them. A 3/4 inch hole in the bottom goes on a bolt that is in the rafters over head and I pull down on the pelts to get them off, easy. Mink boards the same way but I do use a belly board. For pins I use the plastic ones with the big head, get the longer length ones.....jk
Hay a lot of guys have made 160s into single springs (to me that is a 161) and have left over springs that go right one 110s. I have a batch of them now......j k
AG have you ever been east to see our country. The hills and forests are totally different from your. But the people are the same. Citiots are everywhere in town, but in the rural area we are the same, just different sights......jk
