just pay attention when anyone is giving a grading with furs infront of them at a field day
one quick line can go by fast if you are not cued in at the time

the trip to Mr Grahams C days would have been well worth it, probably only 300 years of experience giving lectures

10 this year sounds likely and all your input costs will be much higher. So -10 a dog sounds about right

If I was gonna sell a processed coyote for 10 bucks it would be dried with a lot of jerky and rancid fat on it and hair falling out and stinkin ears.

With the drought here and the lack of tall dried brush for coyotes to run through, the fur may be in better shape longer if other weather conditions don't affect it. Mud, ice, snow, diet and brush play a big factor in the causes of fur damage.

John you are spot on "Can't sell what you don't have".
