Tips for Storage prior to drop off:
- All hides for tanning are best kept frozen after fleshing or salted. Hides that are air dried/petrified produce a poorer quality product. To avoid extra cost and to ensure the best quality product take the time to properly prepare your pelts for tanning. Tanning is utility grade suitable for garment use or display ,foldable and moderately soft.
- Hides that are properly handled, well fleshed /salted and or frozen will ensure better quality.
- For euro skulls completely skin and remove lower jaw and freeze if possible.
