hillbilly61:
Sounds funny but I was wondering if antlets can be rehydtrated. A friend ask this and I thought this would be the place to ask ;D

jamie:
yes but why. never becomes the same thing. like trying to make a potatoe from a potatoe chip

El Destructo:
Are You talking about re-hydrating Shed Antler? Otherwise...all Antlers are just dried out Bone...once the Velvet's Blood Supply stops...the Bone quits growing and the Velvet starts to dry out...and slough off.

hillbilly61:
Ya El D. He has an Elk shed that is dry? and bleached out. Jussr wanting to know if there was anyway to restore it :-\

Pat B:
Probably not. You can impregnate the old dry antler with chemicals or epoxies with the use of a vaccume chamber I believe.   What is he wanting to do with the antlers?
