I had one coyote left that had some lice damage between the shoulders ( typical spot ) & at the bottom crouch area , not extremely bad but of course you can see it . I decided to hold it back from going in Auction but now maybe I shouldn't have to see if price would be better for that type of pelt . It was washed & combed well , looked pretty good other than the lice damage areas . So I took to Halfords of course knowing it had damage to see the price , when I put the pelt out on the table he looked it over & said mange issue , I soon corrected him & he then said oh yeh , made me think does he know what hes actually looking at when grading . He said oh 15.00 tops , I let it go & didn't want to hold onto it . MY decision , life goes on . I suspect he'll probably get more for it but it won't break me or make him a millonaire . THE PELTS THAT WHERE PILED UP ON THE BARE CONCRETE DIDN'T IMPRESS ME EITHER .
