I have 2 mink on stretchers and thought about hanging them in the basement to dry but they smell strong and I don't want to rock the boat too much with my wife. I have them hanging in the garage but it is -10 here again. Is it okay to hang furs when it is below freezing or will I hurt the pelt?

Your fur will be fine. It will just take longer to dry.

Won't hurt them,
Like BFP said, it will just take alittle longer.

I had some muskrats pelts freeze up on wire hangers once. They looked a little different than the others but sold for the same price.
