    Deer

    Deer Hides Wanted:We are interested in a limited quantity of deer hides for hair on tanning. They can be white-tail deer, mule deer, or blacktail deer. We can also use domestic axis deer or anything domestic with spots.

    They must have complete tails, have complete necks, and cannot have more than two to three nickel size holes. No slippage or drag marks are allowed. They cannot be cut in a manner that will make them mis-shapen. We are especially not interested in hides that have been cut in such a way that the brisket area is attached to the front of the anterior legs rather than being along the edge to the rear of the anterior legs.
    You can either flesh, tack out, and dry these hides or you can flesh, salt, and cure them before shipping.

    We often have collectors of leather hides call us with hides to sell. Please note that hides that are collected and then salted without being fleshed will most likely have multiple slip spots when tanned hair on. This is because the hide actually taints under the fat and meat before it cures.
    Hair on quality hides must be fleshed down completely when fresh, have the bone removed from the tail, and be salted with good medium or fine grain kiln dried salt. Every inch of the hide must be salted with particular attention to the edges and the tail.

    Once we establish a working relationship with you and assure the quality of your product, we will have you ship them direct to the tannery and we will refund your freight charges.
    Make sure you can sell deer hides from your state. We will buy hides from any state where it is legal to sell them and only legally taken deer hides.
    Prices:
    55-60" long plus tail: #1 quality $25.00, very slightly damaged $20
    50-55" long plus tail: #1 quality $20, very slightly damaged $15.00
