Here’s a gallon of good stuff. Red fox glands broken down to liquid aging in good meat fed winter fox urine I collected myself. I'm betting that stuff will get you some fur. Looks good.
Let me sugar coat this

If all this info cant help a beginner they need to read it several times! Alot of hidden info in this if a guy thinks creatively. Coon duke is spot on about glands breaking down differently. My fox glands will break down to a watery sludge in half the time my yote glands will. Cats are in between both but I prefer my cat glands to still have some solids left in them. This is interesting. My red fox glands take about 3 years to break down, but they're not a watery sludge, they're a paste about the consistency of pudding. My cat glands only take about 1 year to break down good. I wonder what the difference is. Mine are in a climate controlled environment, and I wonder if that may be the difference?

OK, I gotta ask . . . what's the rubber band for? On the other side of the jug there is a piece of paper with the ratios written on. That's the side we wanted to see Lol

That might be the difference paul my shed is the same temp as out side till winter then it really fluctuates only thing I safeguard my glands from is direct sunlight

Grind the glands. I taint mine for three days then stop with S.B. and add gly. Add about 1/4 gly to amount of glands I like mine to age for as long as I can leave them. At least 2 weeks 2 months is better. A year is better yet You can use at 2 weeks and have a good product. I like 4oz of glands to a pint of urine.Let age for a week or two then I strain the urine and put the glands back in the jar Hope this helps Let me get this straight... 1) Grind, taint for 3 days, stop with SB. 2) Age the stopped glands for 2 weeks...to a year. Or, anything in between. 3) THEN add the aged glands to the urine, and let mix for at least 2 weeks. Is that the correct procedure and timeline? I'm ready to start chopping up glands, just want to make sure I understand. I was previously interpreting it to chop the glands, and after 3 days...add to the urine and let sit all year. But, it's the GLANDS you want to sit for a long time before I add them to the urine. And that only has to sit for a couple weeks...Right?

Good posts here intended to assist those who want to make their own secret sauce or understand a bit better what they're using that's made by others.
Bob has some very good straight forward information about temperature ranges and processes! Having been in business in three different states that have VASTLY different temperatures throughout the seasons (Michigan, Nebraska, and now Texas) we've had to work with all the temperatures this nation has to offer. For example, when you live in a hotter climate (and south Texas is HOT) glands and meats must be worked with quickly. Even in the moderate temperatures we keep our "stinky room" at, fresh glands that are fine ground and allowed to sit a while before/in formation get.... thinner. No way around it other than to use thickeners.
So when I read that certain lures are thicker or thinner, that has very little bearing on attraction. Perhaps on application, but not on attraction. If you live in a cooler northern climate taking your time in the stink shed is ok, but in the warmer, more humid/high dew point regions, you better work all day long to get stuff ground and preserved and set up cause ma nature never rests.
I have had the privilege to work with other lure manufacturers since the 80's when I started and there are a few thing you must do when testing attractants. 1. Test in various zones of the country if you plan to sell commercially to those zones. 2. Tests must be conducted in preferred locations of animal travel. Believe it or not, most "newer" lure makers don't do this one. Since time is money and good trap locations deserve the best smells in the bag oftentimes, "tested" lures are relegated to "other- let's see how this works locations" and that results in bias of the attractants. The oldie but goodie will always outproduce because it's used in the best spots. YOU MUST USE NEW SMELLS DURING TESTS IN THE BEST SPOTS ALSO! Tough to do, but critical to testing reliability. 3. Test results must have a large "n" or research number.... how many placements. Larger the n, the more reliable the results.
I would personally love to see a new influx of lure makers in an industry that has very few tenured makers anymore. Gone are many we used to know. Ingredients are harder to get and very pricey because of it. Glands are tougher to acquire because fewer trappers trap/skin. But I hope new blood catches the bug and dives in. Water's fine.
Blessings Mark

Derrick. Do you mean glycol when you say gly? Or glycerine?
