I will post pictures later but averag d $9 on my finished mink at Carlson furs. Rats did $3.50 average. I don’t remember the rest off the top of my head. I am very pleased for a depressed market.
I have nothing clever to put here.

My wild mink prices have been creeping up last couple years at the auction.
Managed to snag 30 this fall while trapping a few beaver.I will ship most(NAFA feb sale) and keep some to tan and sell at pow wow.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

The two I sold last year (large and small males) went for $8.00 and $10.00. And they were put up on cardboard incorrectly (legs pinned on the front with a window cutout).
When life gets me down..... you know hunting/trapping season is closed.

$3.50 on our rats that seems like a very good price for our area rats!! Was it a big size run or avg. Size run?
$9 on put up mink Is good, NAFA 2nd sale last year my top male mink sold for $12 that was the selects and select females was I think $4
Plus I had commission fees taken out also
The mink market is not better this year either, The ranch mink are 15-20% lower now than last May
I enjoy selling to Carlson also, very fair and honest young man.
Also sells some of the BEST fox urine out there,

I was very happy given the current market and felt I was treated quite fairly.

Let us know how you do after commission whenever they sell. I'll be sure to post that...5 males and 3 females.

Boco, I never thought about selling tanned at pow wow. I should do That with some tanned fur.
