I'm a small-scale breeder of Rex rabbits, a commercial meat/fur breed. I'd like to tan the furs for my own use, but thus far my attempts have been nothing but frustrating. I've done a lot of reading about tanning furs, but reading about it and doing it are 2 different things.
I need someone to teach me how to properly dry and flesh the pelts prior to tanning. Would one of you in central/southern Alberta be willing to teach me how to do this? I have 4 rabbits ready for butchering within the next month, an opal, castor, blue and black otter, and I really don't want to destroy more beautiful furs.
Thank you.
