Caped vs. Skinned

You need to know what you'll be doing with the hide BEFORE any processing begins.

1. CAPED - hide is split down the chest with the head attached. You'll need a caped hide for an alligator rug or full body mount with the scutes attached.

$15 per foot

 

 

2. SKINNED

 The hide is split down the back. You'll need a skinned hide for tanning the hide from this underbelly skin. This is the kind of hide tanned for making boots or wallets.

$15 per foot

Caping or skinning fees must be paid before leaving the whole alligator. No exceptions, please.
