Fox skins and the law!

[DJB266]

Not deer related but can anybody help me out with where I would stand legally selling fox skins? I had a browse online but all I Could find was the outlawing of fur farming, nothing regarding the sale of fox furs from vermin control etc. Seems a shame to keep wasting them!
Thanks in advance

I see no reason why you cannot sell your fox furs, in the seventies we used to sell them to a dealer, but fashion changed and they were worthless.

No issue whatsoever

Nothing to stop you other than finding a market for them ,used to sell them but prices got less and less until it was not worth the effort of skinning them.

Thanks guys! I have a friend who's big into his bushcraft who was asking after them along with deer and rabbit furs! I shall start skinning!

Have a word with the leather workers on here might be suitable bullet pouches or similar items, its all down to how much they would be when tanned
cheers

Slightly off kilter

A close by neighbour has all the muntjac skins I get, he uses them after treating and shaving them to re skin bongo drums

He says it’s the best skin he has used. The meat is even better though

Probably only the winter skins worth doing anything with.....

Guess you need to shoot some deer before you can ask about deer skins

If your buddy wants any of my skins he's welcome
