I have a couple beaver I am going to send. How would you package them. Thought about just rolling them up and boxing them. Folding them would cause them to break wouldn't it?

Call your tannery and ask how best to ship.

Rolling them works. Put fur to fur and leather to leather.

I've sent them a email, just don't know if I will get an answer before I want to send them.

I suspect that if there isn't a hard crease when you fold them that they're gonna be OK. Rolling works but will be more expensive to ship that way.

I’ve shipped folded dried pelts to the tannery before. Never had any problems

I thought just doing that but the ate blanket size beaver and the cost would be more than it needs to be. Bigbrownie I think if a person was going fold a beaver hide they would break.
