Tanning Color

Submitted by BJH on 12/30/01. ( Herin083@hotmail.com ) 216.190.9.98

Hello: i have another dumb question. i am tanning my first fox and i salted, dried hard, rehydrated, pickled, and now it is in the tan, but the tan doesn't seem to be doing anything to the skin! am i doing something wrong? or is this normal? is the color of the skin going to change when it is done tanning or does it still look the same color as a pickled skin? PLEASE HELP!
