I'm guessing not as much as the silver ones do lolAll kidding aside don't expect more than a couple dollars for green possums, since finished ones isn't bringing much. IMO

Cant tell ya that. I have been lucky (blessed?) so far I have only caught one small one that I turned loose, but I do know possums never have brought much money. Just put em up, they add up and help buy ya buy a tank of gas.

leave it on the board till its dry, usually about a week, depending on temp and airflow in the fur shed, wipe it down with a rag once in awhile to remove the grease as its drying. If you use fans don't have them blowing right on the hides. Best way I can explain to ya, Are you using wood or wire stretchers? If you use wood make sure you use a belly board.
