That's true. I am not familiar with an actual tanning process for snake skin. Hopefully you can find something you are looking for.

@@NobleSavageOutdoors Thanks. Now if I can just get them to quit killing my chickens

I did something similar and got similar results. I am not sure it gives it the same tainted smell as sun rendered, but definitley a different attractant that they normally don't smell.

Thanks this is still one of my favorite ideas. Good luck with yours, there are a bunch of different ways to make it your own.

Thanks!

The trail camera videos show that is not true.

@@NobleSavageOutdoors Thirty years a professional predator trapper says they do. Have witnessed Fox moving several times, well known fact they do. Don't know about Wolves, but coyotes and foxes do.

I know it can happen, but I also know that just because you go near a den does not mean they "will" move their pups. There are a ton of different factors that would dictate whether or not the adults feel threatened enough to move. This example with trail camera footage proves that they don't do it every time.

@@NobleSavageOutdoorslike being in a pen.

When you buy 1 length of 1" aluminum conduit, 1 coupling typically comes on one of the ends. If it doesn't, you should search or ask for a 1" aluminum conduit coupling.

Thanks, I'm glad you could use the information. Some more good information that ive learn is that some fox den locations can remain active for years, and some can change rather frequently. I suspect it has something to do with territory. I've seen multiple times where a fox dens pops up close to an existing older den, then the very next year that new den is abandoned. I have also seen dens (like the older one I was talking about in this video) that were active for a few years, abandoned maybe a year or 2, then active again for a while which means different foxes moved and made it their home. It sounds like that may be the case for you as well. I have chickens and turkeys as and have had pretty good luck keeping them safe from foxes (raccoons and fishers have been a different story). Good luck with your poultry!

What do you mean by a print?

You should look into a place called Colonial Willisburg in Virginia. They still make flintlock rifles they way they used to over 100 years ago. Here is a video that shows the process. (ua-cam.com/video/qTy3uQFsirk/v-deo.htmlsi=6n5VttfmATqYEvnN, I know it is long, but if you are interested you will really enjoy it). Don't quote me on this, but I remember hearing the man making the flintlocks in this video is the same guy still making flintlocks at Colonial Williamsburg to this day (I heard this a few years ago so may not be true anymore). I also remember hearing the flintlocks he makes now would be worth something around $40,000-50,000 (again that was quite a few years ago so probably much more now).

The best is still setting tools. Best $20 I've spent.

I've spent time in a foothold. I quite enjoyed myself.

As Mike Tyson would say, "The pith ith pith."

You're probably going to want to buy at least another 6 DP's to make it and even 12 pack.

The creme is very runny without using the powder, but the powder is probably not a 100% necessity.

@NobleSavageOutdoors thanks for thr reply I really appreciate it , I just got the cream nottion eles wasn't sure when I got it so going to give that a try by its shelf

No problem. Good luck, hope it works out for you!

Fresh leaves from this year should be fine, but you don't want leaves that have been sitting around getting wet for a year or more.

I use whole corn which costs $5 fo a 50 lb bag and bacon grease which is free. The amount that you say I "wasted" on this set probably cost me a fraction of a penny.

The bark side is the back of the bow.

​@@NobleSavageOutdoors Thank you! Is this true for most types of wood?

@@Seabass-a It depends how you are making the bow. For this case, with hickory the sap wood does well in tension and the heart wood does well in compression. So the best thing to do would have half heart wood and half sap wood with the heart wood as the belly and sap wood as the back. With other types of wood like Osage orange, you will do what's call "chasing a grain." Removing all the sap wood and exposing 1 continuous grain line of heart wood to be used as the back of the bow. This method works for many types of wood.

Not with that attitude.

Obviously it would be best to get them fresh, degrease the skull, then whiten it. A dead head sitting around for a year will lose almost all the grease, but will stain and deteriorate as it is exposed to UV light and rain. I'm sure this has started to happen already to the one you found, but that doesn't mean it's not worth doing. I have whitened very stained dead heads before with this method and gotten them almost as good as fresh ones. If you can get a dead head white, normally they will stay the same color over time unlike a fresh one that might yellow if you didn't properly degreases it. Definitely give it a try!

Feet were my go-to before I got a setting tool. Now I don't leave without the setting tool.

They are very cool animals!

My bow is at like 65 lbs.

@@NobleSavageOutdoors I'm just getting back into archery. I bought a package bow and was sold 300 arrows. They're cut extra long. Tomorrow will buy heavier points. I'm getting right tears. In time I'll screw on more poundage. Thanks for getting back to me. (I should have added that your vid was/is valuable.)

And to this day he has never peed inside, got in the trash, or chewed things he's not supposed to.

This bracket actually came off one of those portable garages that was damaged. But I'm sure you could use pretty much any significantly strong "L" bracket.

Thanks for the support!

Sorry I'm not an expert in snakeskin. This is just a simple method to preserve one and keep it from drying out on the wall. I believe there are a number of reptile skin formulated conditioners available that would work great. But if you are looking for a DIY fix, I would guess you could try to rehydrate the skin with glycerin by gently rubbing a light amount on in the direction of the scales being very careful around any loose scales.

From my research and observations, I have come to the same conclusions. Raccoons are seldom scavenged by most of the desired trapping predators. I do believe possums will eat it, but what won't they eat? Turkey vultures will eat about anything as well, and I have seen eagles and hawks scavenge just about every animal carcass in my area. I agree it is a shame because raccoon meat is so available to every trapper, and I really want to use it instead of letting it go to waste. I even had ideas to mix it with other meats to potentially make it more desirable to predators. However, I have come to realization that a little meat goes a long way when making baits (unless you are planning on selling it), so I should stick with the best stuff like beaver and muskrat. After making that decision and actively saving beaver and muskrat meat, I have found I have more than enough to make myself and some friends bait whenever I feel up to it.

@@NobleSavageOutdoors thanx for the reply,I guess it re-enforces what I already thought.
