    I'll be getting a bullock butchered next month, I want to get the hide treated and made into a rug.

    I can't find anywhere online.

    Anyone hear if anywhere in Ireland?

    Anyone actually know and recommend anywhere?

    Online it says nick winters animal skin and hides specialists navan co Meath…seems like a commercial operation though,so not sure they do individual requests.

    Sounds like a nice project..., get out the salt and start scraping.😬

    Hopefully it'll be too cold for maggots 🤢

    No luck here. There is no one on this island treating cattle hides as a service.

    I spoke with a guy who exports hides and he confirmed.

    We kill almost 2 million cattle each year in Ireland and export all of the hides. Most of which are given away for free.

    Hard to believe. The agriculture business here is not right.
