What are most of the fur buyers looking for? Is there any problem with not getting them dry and rotting? Thanks Griz STOP GLOBAL WHINING!

Then keep legs inside when turning fur out. No Legs (tucked inside) Grey, Red, Coyote *trim bottom lip for fur market and to give uniform appearance

I do put a little borax under the legs when they are leather side out. Brush it off when I flip them.
