well on where to sell them would depend on your location ,there are three fur sales coming up this coming weekend.Also on putting the coon and foxes up ,websites like nafa,and the fur harvesters may help alittle but the best way to learn is to work with someone who has good knowledge on the subject,also there are plenty of books and video's out there.J

The traps 4 kids site used to have a coon skinning how to with photos. I haven't been to the site in awhile, but it is probably still there. Here is the link: dtanner.proboards29.com/index.cgi You need to register and log on to access it.

www.furharvesters.com/magazine.htmYou can download the pelt handling for profit manual or call and request it. It is free either way and very helpful. It will tell you how to skin, flesh and put up each furbearer individually. It's a nice reference book to have especially if you are just begining. Fur harvesters auction and NAFA are probably the two places that you can send your fur to and get the most for them. Good Luck.

As previously mentioned, not knowing where you're from makes it a little hard to say where you can sell locally. There are many, many book & videos out there on putting up fur and next Summer most conventions have fur handling demo's that will teach you a lot.
