Dp the thing. I can see by the way you ask about pickling, you need to read the tanning section several times. There is a priority list of steps in tanning. You are confused about those and dont know what to pickle the hide with.
I have to ask, where is your directions for this whole proccess?
One of the best things that you can do is write down a bunch of questions then search the archives. Just type a key word like deer eyes and Bam you have more info than you can read in one sitting.
Then if you still can't find your answer ask a question on the beginners section. Good luck
I shot a rabbit with a 20 gauge shotgun(iknow big no-no) and I just let it dry and tacked it up on the wall with a small nail. It's been sittin' there for about two months. is it still possible to tan it?
thanks for the suggetions ill look into them
