Trim the ear butts so they dry.Be careful turning them,the belly skin is thin especially on later caught fox.Unless they are very fatty there is little fleshing required.
Fleshing- I place on stretcher board, use a knife & trim meat from front leg pits and trim or pull excess fat from hide. Then pin to board. Sometimes on flanks, meat will need removed from pelt.

Got them fleshed yesterday and flipped them this morning getting ready to reboard them. Taking the ear cartilage out was really the only chore still learning. Thanks Again for all the help Justin

I really have no idea what to expect. This will be my first year dealing with nafa and I'm going to send them in with a few coyote. Last year my friend sold some green to Groeney and I think he got 5 bucks a hide. Justin
