I looked at the recent results and was surprised to see the grey fox went as high as it did. Bobcat did real well and coyote faired good also. It was a lump in the troat after seeing what happened to the rats. I think they will do better at the next sale but they still have some carryover from this one too.

By lookin at how badger did I'd guess they are makin paint brushes again.

I did not have fur at this auction. I was wondering if anyone could let us know how they did?

Well I might be crying too. I held my furs thinking that the next auction would be a bit better. I am really wondering now if I made a good decision or not.

The only plus is that most of my beaver I get a bounty for anyway. Yotes I get extra kickback often too.

I will have to. I went to the dentist yesterday for the first time in 23 yrs. It's a pay as I go deal and I want it all done before I get to work this spring. Thats the nice part about selling local, cash on the spot.

Hey I used to go to a dentist that would barter. Took a pair of breeder silver fox once.
