Its better to leave the skin on and try and sell some milk while the cow is still wearing the hide

Usually quite cheap to acquire but very expensive to get rid of.

Had a really cool looking Hereford cross heifer for home kill. It had brown and white spots and looked like some weird cow version of camofladge

place it in the freezer if you still have it with the skin covered by the pelt.I'll see if I can get some prices for you @Toby132

I don't still have it but I have another home kill inside the next 3 months with an alright skin so might get that done for the floor ; ) @Dundee

WARNING
Have had advice this outfit could be a scam

I may be guilty of treating Face Book (which I only started using last 2-3 weeks) as a genuine honest place like here - silly me "maybe ??

You MAY have a point; Adams business is “Animal Skin Tanning Services”. I’ll text him to verify

this just came through

The following is a cut and paste of Adam’s reply to my query. He gave me permission to post it in full here;

“Hi. It's a disgruntled employee whom I sacked last week. He is trying to go out on his own. However he had a restraint of trade clause in his employment contract and so is acting illegally. Please stay away from him and pass on to others this information. He is a fraud”

The above Incorporation Doc is dated TODAY also ?????

THIS is the link to the genuine animal skin tanning services whom I was endorsing in my first post to this thread;

I’m mindful our Admins may need to watch this space, and post Adams correct link purely out of completeness and allow forum members tn opportunity to verify for themselves

Animal Skin Tanning Services | Cow, Calf, Deer, Goat Hides & Skins

Adam is really good. A small investment - the leather on my deer skins came back lovely and soft.

Taupo Tannery? Anybody used?

[QUOTE=7mmwsm;844413]Not since Trevor Chappell had it. Got him to do quite a few head skins. Got a few done by Mark Walker (Big Game Artistry, Ngahinapouri) since.[/
It’s been since Sept! I gave him a nice fallow skin to do, fob off all the time, trouble with drying is the latest! We had a great summer?
