How long do I need to hang up my beaver castors and once they are cured what do I do with them? Sorry I'm not a water trapper. I'd post some pics if I knew how. Thanks in advance.

Let them hang, till the oil stops draining, and then put them in a bag and freeze them.At least that's what I do with mine.

Make sure you save the oil also. Makes great lure.
