We have a paler red in my area. As with most places they tend to be a little darker earlier in the fall. I always wonder why we don't see any cross in this area. At one time ND had a lot of fox. I know guys that took over 100 with two dozen traps in a season. I feel the lower population was due to mange and farming changes more than coyotes. According to Bob Young in the 1960's Montana had very few red and in the 1980's when I worked for Bob in the fur room at Pacific in Gt Falls we were buying as many reds as coyotes. The coyotes were always there and the fox population increased.

Very little color variations here. Plenty of reds and I’ve caught 3 that graded cross, but honestly I didn’t feel they were true cross.

Those are the fluffy foxes I wanted to see, Boco.
What a gorgeous hat. Really like the white tones for design. Do you have more shots of it , from the back too ? I made that hat a couple years ago for a trapper as a gift for his wife,it is the only pic I have of it.I made it with a snap on tail,with snaps in two different locations on the hat,one high and one low.You cannot see the snap tags under the thick fur. Not all of our red foxes have the bright neon white throat patches but those that do are the nicest ones,

No bother at all Sharon. I'll send you a PM on here once I start sewing stuff. Might be a little while though.

One thing I do know of artists, they do their best work when happy , inspired, and unhurried . Beautiful fur handling and sewing is a grand art talent I appreciate and wear proudly. You really do a marvelous work with the fur you catch . As well as the quality fur in your area. A colourful hat from one of your foxes will top off my carefully gathered mini collection of fur hats . Right up there with my marten hat of many colours. Thank you much, Boco. JACK.......see what you did ???? This is all your fault .
