The Fur Sale

On the 23 of February I sold all but one of my furs at the district 2 fur sale. I decided to keep the Red Fox hide since it was my first fox.

Heres what I sold and what I got for them:
1 Grey fox = $35
1 raccoon = $5
3 possums = $9 ($3 a piece)


So, I made $49 this year? Not really, because I spent $69 on traps (not counting traps I got for Christmas) and other needed items, also you have to figure in my cost of opportunity. So I really made no money, but I had fun, got tons of exercise and learned lots of things about the animals I trapped.

Turkeys For Spring Turkey Season

Now that the fur season is over, it is time to start looking forwards to the next hunting season which Spring Turkey.

For three days now I have been seeing a small flock of turkeys. There seems to be one bearded bird and four to five hens in the flock.
