can anybody tell me if a possum is worth anything or did i just waste my time skinning it.......thanks
-
I was going to GIVE my possums to my fur buyer. He still didn't want them. He will pay $2. 75 for a skinned, fleshed, and stretched possum pelt!
It's your call! Those $2.75 will increase!
Me I'm just doing predator control when I get them! They are wildlife and song bird predators!
IMO $2.75 is just not worth it. Now if you get a lot then it could pay for your gas this year! Maybe?

Thanks uncle buck.........guess i was hoping for to much.........set my muskrat traps yesterday and made some fox and coon sets........had a possum in one of the fox sets this morning.
-
I'd skin it.
I've had them bring $8-10
I'm sure it won't be your last pos this season
-
You should be getting good $$$$$ on reds this year! Make your shots non destructive when hunting them this year that's for sure!!! Jerry Johnson told me what possums are worth! $2.75!

Hey Iffin I was as rich as UB...I might pass on a possum :o....but to me it's all about gas money 8)...but they are a mess to flesh.. :P
-
boy they are a mess to skin.........did not know the belly skin was so thin.........got a few holes but not real big ones so price will be cut down. thanks for all of the info.
-
:( Got one this mornin in a cubby set ??? gas money ;)
-
I use them to weight my garbage cans Down for Tues pickup!
No if you get a mess of them you can accumulate some cash!
Remember now they have to be done perfect! You could get $2. 75 or $1.00 if done wrong! But they are good practice for you. Then when you get a nice fox your knife cuts might be perfect! Remember they are good to take off the land because they do kill small game and song birds! That's what we are here for predator control. Keep up the hood work Possun!
