do beavs have two litters a year or only one? If only one, the kits must grow up fast. Does look like too many juvies in that last pile!!

Surprisingly alot of the castor are shells right now, I've had a couple REAL good ones, but alot of empty ones. Is there a reason for this? Or just at random?

Nice hauls of beaver Iowa!

Castor is kind of interesting as you can find shells and nice plump ones side by side any time early or late. But in general I think the plumpest castors are just prior to breeding season which for us in open water western Oregon is late December.

My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

The first line is mine and should have been "Doesn't look like too many juvies in that pile". Sometimes I miss putting in the right ending to a word...

IowaTrapper- What are you up to now, about 50? You must dream of those flat tails in your sleep (I was going to say the animal's name but then decided against it blush...)
