old capes

[u2cme21999]

Hello all,I bought a couple of capes on here,when I recieved them they said they where tanned in 2002 they came froze, and I put them right in the frezzer right off.Now my question is should these capes still be good,and will I have to do anything to them before I use them for mounting?
                                                                 Thank you very much for any info you may have,
                                                                                                              u2

All you can do is thaw them out, but they should be fine

Thanks jim for the reply,I was wondering if anyone else had expearance with caprs that had been in frezzer that long.They seam to have been well packaged and came from a very exp. taxidermist,but  you are right I wont really know till they are thawed.
                                                      Thanks again,

I would add some water to them but they are fine
