This is where the local fur buyer is sorely missed. Time was the local fur buyer would help a newcomer getting started.

He’s trapped for several years but he’s never had the desire to put up anything that I’ve ever heard of I’d like to help him but I’m running long days already. I just don’t have the time I finally got to sit down Monday night at 9PM then I got up to help a neighbor move wood the next morning it was the only day he had to do it.

First part of your post I'm thinking to myself that this is a great opportunity to educate someone and help our our crew. Then I kept reading and it's a bit of a bummer. If he's not willing or wanting to learn maybe he can find someone in the area who will buy them green?

How hard is it to skin anything? we all learned by doing, nowadays a quick internet search will give you instructions with pictures....you said he's been trapping a couple years, he's never skinned anything? what does he do with his catches?.... just sounds strange....

What’s strange he sells out of his freezer like a lot of folks do that don’t put up fur.
