USA Foxx has been robbing people for 20 years. No idea how anyone doesn't know that by now. Sorry you got screwed.

I am glad this topic came up. What is a good alternative? I've committed to keeping a lot of my fur this year and need a place to send it for blankets, etc.

Thanks in advance.

Have you considered getting set up to tan it yourself?

Moyles in Idaho does a good tanning job. www.Moylemink.com. They are about 5 months turn around right now.

Wildthings in Wisconsin could make the blankets for you.

Tanning them yourself but there is a learning curve to get a quality product.

I have and have watched a few videos on it but have never tried it. I wish I had more time and I definitely would.

Moyles does a beautiful tan, but turnaround is usually long. I sent in furs in early April, I don't think about them til September.

I got burned on my very first raccoon by USA Foxx. They'll never see another dime from me.

You might try Sleepy Creek Tannery in Wellsburg iowa #641-485-2172
i sent some beaver out to them in march and at that time they were 5 to 6 months out.

I have sent coyotes, coons, rats, fox, ermine, etc. to Sleepy Creek. Nothing but great things to say about them. Last time the owner called just let me know they received my fur and thanks for the business. Highly recommend Sleepy Creek

Just to add a little perspective:

I had them make me a trooper hat from my skunk fur.

Lots of delays and excuses, but, in the end a great hat.

While it's your choice whether or not to use them in the future; don't give up on them yet.

I had them make some head bands and a coat lining out of my fur, turned out great and no problems. I must be lucky or special.

I usually take a few to Wild Things every year. They do a great job, turn around just depends on their work load. A little side note, just let your wife know they may be calling..... because when a gal calls and says she's so and so with Wild Things, trapping isnt the first thing that will pop into her mind, true story. Quite funny one in fact.
