I thought they porbably still wanted the fat on beings its hard to get off. The buyer I used to sell too told me the people who treated the pelts have a machine that they slide the pelt on. He said on this machine theres a knife that takes the fat off right down to the hide. He didn’t explain how it worked though.
Calcium chloride isn’t as caustic as regualr salt. Same stuff we use for trapping b/c it doen’t rust your traps as quick. We remove snow and ice dams @ $20hr but have heard some doing it @ $10 sq just for shoveling.
We were up in NW Wi last weekend. Ended up with 12 for the 3 of us. Was a good time till my 7mo old GSP tangled with a Porky We pulled prob 75-100 and ended up bringing him to the vet since a few broke off and was hard to hold him down to get the rest… Porky’s don’t sit well with me!
I bought 3 of the Ir4 camera at Cabelas and 1 didn’t work out of the package and the other one died 3 days later. Same problem as you had. Sent them in, had to wait a little longer…bout 3 weeks. Nice camera when they work!
