Tanning

[Roboz]

Anybody recommend a tanner to get a coyote done? Taxidermist are a little on the high side compared to the tanners i have goggled. Some where close to Colorado?

The taxidermist rates are usually higher because they have to do all the skinning/prep work on the hides. To send to a tannery you will need to prep the hide yourself. My taxidermist offers a much lower rate if you do the prep so you may want to ask around. $100 is the going rate around here but if you take in a hide truly ready to be tanned a lot of them will do it for $50.

There is a guy that I'm going to take mine too that he will do them for $30 in aberdeen sd. If you need a name let me know

Talk to a taxidermist. They should be able to recommend a tannery to you.

I have used 2 tanneries and have been satisfied with both. the first is moyles mink and tannery, they are located in Id. The other is K and K tannery in Mi. K and K was a little more expensive and had a longer turn around time. Moyles was cheaper and quicker. Both turned out a nice product. Have had coyotes, mink, fox, fischer and otter tanned. Both places need to be fleshed, strechted and dried.

x3 on Moyle Mink and Tannery in Heyburn, ID. They do a good job on wall hanging type hides and are a good taxidermy tannery too! Good turn around time in my experience also.
