I have not trapped in several years and was wondering , do you turn the grey fox skins to show the fur like the red fox or leave it like a coon skin. Thanks in advance for any information. :D

Trapper/Mike;
  As a fur buyer, I want all grey fox turned fur out.  This allows me to see the quality of the fur, undercoat, and coloration.   If someone brings me grey fox turned fur in, I automatically suspect something wrong with the fur.
NAFA also recommends fur out on fox.  I first board for about a day (until the head is almost dry) with the fur in and then take off the board and turn and put back on the board with fur out.
For Sale: Old wore out trapper - rode hard, put up wet, high milage and earned every mile.
