Hey all,
Don't shoot the messenger - FHA doesn't take just skunk tails. It's got to be the whole skunk.

No I don't now why, so I can't answer questions about it. Although I've been around 8 months, but I've only been through one full auction season.

Extra income for the buyers some consumers don’t always use the tails a win win for the buyer is my guess. I see one buyer that wants the whole hide posted a pic of just the tails on boards so he will most likely market the rest.


Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

If they don't have lots of white hair in the tail, he doesn't want them. And being green skinned that will also bring down the grade. He turned down all my skunks at NO Value since they were lacking all that white hair in the tail. I'm going to ship mine.

Not if the tails don't have enough white in them.
