Just skinned a fox and want to put it up as soon as possible. I washed the blood off and then wrung out all of the water. Wiped it down, combed it. Now the fur is a little damp is all. Can I flesh her and then put her on the stretcher yet tonight? And when I turn it, I'll wipe it and get it dried completely. Can I do this or will it cause it to slip in the longrun?
PS...What kind of bug lives on the fox that is long and skinny, Dark Brown or Black. Its about 1/2 centimeter long or smaller. They were in the croth area on both fox...
Thanks, Kyle Moses

I know how to dry them thats not a problem. My concern was if I put the fox on the stretcher with damp fur, would it be alright? It doesn't matter anymore, its dry now.

Haven't put it on the stretcher at all. Its still in front of the fan. After the food settles in me, I'm gonna do a little fleshing.
