I have a hard time removing all the fat (?) out of the foot pads of my small mammels. The outside skin also seems to start peeling off during tanning. Are there any tricks/suggests for these problems. I didn't find much in the archives. Wondering if I'm missing a step? Thanks

Judy, try a wire wheel to get the fat off, or small scissors. If you don't the epidermis will continue to slip. Wash area well with dawn to get the greese out, then tan. Good Luck !
spending too much time handling the feet while fleshing. The exposure of the skin to the warmth from your hands can be the problem.
