had a canadain goose drying the last few days and for some reason i wanted to adjust one of its wings a little and rip right throught the middle of him about a foot long gash. tried pinning it back together but not enough stretch to get the feathers back in place, right now im rehydrating the area and hopefully sew it back together. this ever happen to anyone else? any ideas on repairing this? thanks in advance.

how did you do what again? I know how you feel, trying very caferfully to repair something and it gets worse!
rhydrating it worked. i'm a freekin genius.
How exactly do you rehydrate a bird skin? what if there is dryed caulk underneath it? I have a wood duck i'd like to remount is this possible to do?
