As far as I know, Groenwald is the only place that wants them fur in. Both NAFA and FHA say to put them fur out. BTW - I enjoy your pictures. Nothing prettier than a bunch of well handled pelts hanging up. www.usedtraps.com Please check out my updated inventory of Native American books.

Do you measure and grade your dry fur before shipping\selling? I have in the past, but with this small amount I have an average in my head that I would like to see sale day. This will all be sold to GFWC this coming Friday aling with some green beaver and otter. Thank God For Your Blessings! Never Half-Arse Anything! Resource Protection Service

My average is probably ticked up a size to 2xl-3xl for an average. SNIPERBBB mentioned "Bergman's rule" in another recent thread about larger size critters further north. We also have a high calorie (field corn) environment around here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bergmann%27s_rule "And God said, Let us make man in our image ï¿½and let them have dominion ï¿½and all the creatures that move along the ground".

Plus these sandy bottom peat swamps around here don't grow very many large bodied critters, except gators, cottonmouths, and largemouth bass. Otters ain't too bad though.
