How are you trying to dry them? I would have them freeze dried if it were me.

To do it correctly you need to skin them and remove the bone all the way down into the hoof and then have them tanned. After getting them back from the tannery you can purchase inserts with allthread in them to install inside the hoof and the hide. Or you can send them off to a freeze drying company but then you have to install the allthread yourself so they can be attached to a plaque.

 :yeah:

There is a lot of flesh and meat in a moose hoof. Something small you could probably dry, or even stick in the freezer long enough it will freeze dry itself, but not a moose hoof. Cool idea you've got though but I'd be listening to what elkstuffer said
