I'm no expert on casing production but when I slaughter a calf I can't help but see a fortune laying in the gut pile. So what I do is squeeze all the goody out of them, run a water hose through them, invert them and repeat. When they look clean I scrape or pick any fat off them then wash them and soak them in a strong salt water solution. After that I take them and put them in a bag with lots of salt. So far this has worked well and I don't see why it wouldn't work on a possum.
Gotta ask, do you feed the possum cornbread and milk for a week before killing them or do you kill them out of the tree and eat them?
Patience please, I'm just trying to get on the learning curve.
