Just checked my account and they are now up !!!

Is that for the rats you have up there for the last 5 years?Are they graded stale now?
I thought you sold to groeny.

It's my fall & winter skunks along with some bug dust rats
up to 4 years old, that were the best graded rats I had
up there in Mark Downey FHA purgatory !!!

Groeny Rocks but never pays very well for rats, lately.

I expect Downey will fire sale my best rats in a PT debacle,
before & after the upcoming June Auction.

Yup I’m mostly pleased with grades. A few beaver graded a size under what I thought they might. Despite selling a fair number of black rats privately almost half the ones I sent for the auction still graded black and a good number of what’s offered again are mine.

Grades look good,got a lynx in the second lot.and all cats A and A-B colour grades.

My Bobcat/Lynx I caught was written down as a Bobcat when I dropped it off and now it’s graded as a Lynx lol. Good thing the Lynx prices have been good.

My immediate reaction looking at coon grades is I should have sold to Groeny. Cherry picked golden triangle coon makes you wonder who grades?Luckly my expectations were very low. LOL Hope everyone has a good sale!

Written down as bobcat at drop off means a lot less than grader lotting w how ever many lynx are in that lot. Me thinks u got a lynx.

Is lynx open where you are?
If not the CO might think you trying to pull a fast one marking it as a bob.

Lol yes Lynx is open here. And I can’t imagine a CO looking at every piece of fur being sent in to auction. Also it was Fur Harvesters worker that mark down the fur as I bring in directly to them.

They have a couple COs in the recieving room,at least they used to.

If fur says tag graded but not cataloged yet, will it still be on the sale?

Satisfied with my grades. Is select a good grade for disgusting southern fur?

If it says that on your account Lotting letter it means you are screwed !!!

walleyed has a couple of those as well. Never saw that on my account before
& don't know the significance of that verbiage on my Lotting letter.

Relax on the "tag graded not cataloged" yet. Happens and gets straightened out.

Depends on the species.

Got some select grade, heavy, winter opossum, do ya ?

Jurassic - few years ago was talking to rep from FHA re: Bobcat / Lynx interbreeding in Manitoba. He described animals that had to be mixed, like long Lynx legs but small bobcat type feet etc. They were taken in SE Manitoba near Minnesota border. May explain confusion of what the (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) it is.. ha

Now that the catalogue is up, no so positive.
