leegreen 2,204 Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 I use a Whippet/Greyhound then a machette then a selection of dogs and my final product is a various small to large greyish pellets. Hope this helps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tdavepat 8 Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 I watched it too. River Cottage. Looked like a load of messy fuss to me. I can imagine my wifes face as I stretched an eggy pelt over the arm of her sofa to work it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I use this for tanning rabbit / Fox skins does about 3 - 4 Fox Skins per bottle and Rabbits loads and loads makes them soft and supple (indian Tanning) Can let you have 1 or 2 bottles £15 each plus postage if you want them.
