Prime beaver

[CurLee]

So when do SC beaver "prime", i.e. when's the best time to kill a couple just for their pelt?

Got to be at least 35+ and married for it to have a pelt.

I started trapping a little early this year.

I thought the TriDelt subspecies was hairless these days.

That’s wrong. 2 out of 3 go down.

That’s good right there.

We have a tree stand right near the pond. Beavers just recently found the corn pile. Wiped it out with a quickness along with the coons, deer and turkeys.

It's a petting zoo to say the least...

I do not know the specific answer to the question. I do know that we trapped quite a few in February and March last year and had the pelts tanned and they were spectacular. Amazingly soft and full. We will start again after deer season is over.

That'll do. I was hoping to wait until after deer season. Thanks.

The 1970's.

January will be perfect for pelt quality.
