Alright guys. Here's what I have on hand and curious about what y'all would do with it. Recipes? Amounts of each? How best to age the ingredients before mixing?

3# of ground bobcat meat.
1.5# ground beaver meat.
Ground tarsal pads from 16 bobcats.
16 sets of kidneys, and the glands from the ears, armpits and anuses, all ground but separate.
Asafoetida tincture
Anise oil
2 ground beaver castors
Sodium benzoate and pickling salt to preserve

Want to make 3-5 different Recipes to test. Targeting bobcats, but need to use for coyotes too.

All ingredients are fresh. How long should I age them for best results?

If I handed this to you, what would you do with it?

I personally have almost a quart of cat glands (anal, bladder, ear butts, armpits) aging in a glass jar in my shed with a little bit of fresh cat urine mixed in. I plan to let it age down to a paste and then putting it in front of a trail camera to see how cats and coyotes respond to it before deciding which way I want to go with it. Next year I will save my glands and preserve fresh and test it side by side with the rotted down ones. I also have some rendered out bobcat fat that smells pretty catty. Cats do seem to like castor so that may be a good option
