Default mini farm

I'm using a mix of dry dirt and peat moss combination,use flake antifreeze when chance of freezing up becomes more previlant,will let you know on hide quality tomorrow when I skin out,i raid over night skin in am,yes fur is quite long and thick,nice clear belly as well,had a feeling last night when I left work as a light snow was falling that there would be some visitor's to the farm,instinct's where correct,more to come I'm sure as this yote was not alone,cheers

Fantastic catch and thanks for posting the pics of the sets. I love looking at other guys style.

Skinned a few last night and the hair side is looking good but still a ways to go on the skin side. Older dogs shouldn't be too long now.
