Braintanners... Question #6686952 12/08/19 01:44 PM 12/08/19 01:44 PM

I just realized I should have kept it fresh without any SB or salt to use to tan a deer hide I have in the freezer. Is the brain mixture no longer any good for tanning purposes? If it's not good for tanning anymore, I will continue with my bait plans, but I wanted to ask some expert opinions first. Thanks for your responses, guys. David
