Thread: Possuming 2019

I think the fur market is there 12 months of the year, as @kukuwai said more possums to the kg of fur. Our fur is probably at its heaviest right now. It is running between 12 - 13 possums to the kg. With the pine catkins really being targeted now the fur weight drops off like a moult, but the bodies increase in weight with the high protein. Bodies have been averaging 1.8kg soon they will bee 2 or over. Summer fur is around 18-20 per kg, this is all dependant on climate location and food sources. One thing for sure in the summer is longer days to pluck and no brass monkey mornings. Get a big block..
