Here is my first attempt at putting up coyotes. How does it look so far? Yesterday i washed the coyote in a bucket of cold water and rinsed it with clean 3 times to get all the blood and dirt etc out. I rung it out with my hands real good them snapped it several times to get most of the water out. I then fleshed it and rubbed borax all over the entire flesh side. I rubbed it in the head and tail area real good and then shook the excess out. I put it on the stretcher with the fur in over night and then turned it this morning to fur out. I do have a fan blowing on it to help dry better. Just wanting some input before i do the others i have.

Looks good.....like KS, after washing I like to let the fur semi-dry before boarding.....that is usually by the next day with some heat and a fan

can't see the inside of the ears, is the cartilage remove? if so then it looks good to me, maybe trim the bottom lips alittle more( take them right off). Also is the tail split? I tack them out to dry until I turn fur out.

Yes the tail is split all the way down and had borax rubbed in it real good. No i did not remove the ear cart but i did remove all the meat off the ears and around them and boraxed it real good.

Use a shop vacuum....put it on the blower side and dry the hair with that. Looks good to me.

good lookin yote! with a fan and decently cool temps you shouldn't have to borax the whole thing, or at least i don't have to. dries just fine without it. i do touch a few up around the head if its a warm day with high humidity.
