I know in 2012 their labor cost to put up a coon was $1.50, because that's what they charged me.

Why would you assume that they are putting up coon for a customer at cost without taking a profit for the service?

I doubt FHA would be thrilled to receive those $1 coon either.

You talking about fur or crops? Your examples are what a farmer deals with every harvest. You guys can pee and moan because you aren’t getting old prices. Come to my neck of the woods were you can’t even sell a coon. Heck if I could get 5 bucks a coon skinned not put up ? I’d have couple hundred waiting on him by January. People begging me to trap deer feeders but won’t pay ADC fees. Even tho it save them in corn waste.

I guess I should have used the sarcasm tag. My point is, are they worthless or not? Neither GFW nor FHA has to give you anything for fur they don't want. I've sold to Groney and had fur he told me was no value......doesn't matter when you start trapping...you most likely will catch some blue leathered coon....that are either worthless or worth a dollar....depending on if you put them up and which Grony is buying. If they were losing money on them...blue coon...they wouldn't take them regardless..put up or green. When you put out a video showing you will buy put up blue leather coon for a dollar.....you should probably say so. I've always wondered what they do with that "no value fur" if you don't take it back. Apparently it has value to someone
