Does anybody actually sell any of these? I can get a pretty large quantity if I could get rid of them but don't want to take time cutting them off to just toss them later.

Moscow hide and fur. They buy everything.

Do you know if they buy them raw? I just Wana lop them off while skinning and toss um into a freezer.

Go to their web site, they change things from time to time.
I take off all that will come off.
An animal is always worth more than just the fur.

I would expect to get about 25 cents for raw

www.furbuyer.com

Lists what MHF is currently buying and what they are paying.

I doubt they buy uncleaned bones. Shipping raw items, even if frozen, can get nasty in warm weather.

Coon bones are very easy to clean, especially if you process a large quantity at one time.

Correction - I just checked their web site. They do buy uncleaned coon bones - 35 cents each.

A premium is paid by some places for broken or deformed coon bones.

If it helps, Dead Coyote keeps the raw ones in a coffee cup on the dash of his truck. He chews on them and "cleans" them between sets. A guy needs to make every second count on the line.

How u dry them out? Just cut off an freeze? What u use to cut off ?

If you are going to sell them uncleaned, do not dry them. Put them right in the freezer after you cut them off. Any knife will work fine to cut them off. It is easier to remove that bone than say a skull or a leg.

I am going keep mine at .025 a pecker

The price is .25 to .35 per bone.

.025 is less than 3 cents each.

2 for a nickel actually.....

The bones from other animals have value as well - fox, badger, coyote, otter, mink - just about any species you Trap!!

What bones ? I would not be into rot down skulls

Now trap thieves will be cutting their tools off and leaving the pelt.

What do they use coon peckers for?

Just cut them off-there is not a joint connecting it. Keep a ziplock and freeze them. If you want to clean them, a cheap crock pot set low and cook until the meet slips off the bone.

swizzle sticks, tooth picks, sucker sticks, really small knife handles, etc...

Before...


After...

I have seen a woman wearing them as earrings. Used the full bone with a hook on the straight end for her pierced ears.
