Hugh I do everything that Denny does and with Borax you really don't soak it in. As Denny said when you get that meat out the wing and have the skin all washed tack it out and get the borax down in the cut where you got the meat out and then just cover the rest of the skin completely with the borax. I keep an eye on it and if I see any wet looking spots I use an old table spoon to lift it off and put some fresh borax on that spot.

I go 10-14 days but that's me, now Denny he's probably forgotten more than this kid will ever know about feathers LOL. One thing always seemed strange about the borax though, it seems to act like a bug repellant. Denny any thoughts on that one????????
