i wanted to brain tan a squirrel but when i cracked open the skull, only a brain the size of a chestnut was inside and that couldn't be enough for 2 or even one coating! so how do you take care of this?
thanks

Just mix them up with some warm water when the hide is starting to dry down, then massage them in. Stretch gently when starting to dry. You can always mix in a little modern oils, too. It will be fine.
