I didn't have time to scrape - though I've done it in the past. This was a "come and get it ASAP" situation. She's still hanging in my garage at 35 degrees, waiting to be skinned. Possibly skin today before the temperatures take a dive. Weather has turned here in north Iowa, so schools are closed and the basketball game I was supposed to be at tonight is cancelled. So when I get my pastoral administrative work done at the office, I may go home and skin her. I won't be able to butcher until Saturday at the earliest, more likely on Monday. So I want her not frozen for skinning (which she is right now) and don't care if she's frozen for splitting and breaking into primals on Sunday evening/Monday for butchering.
