2 1/2 weeks sounds like the right amount of time. Has it been
humid? Did you have any fans going? When you snip off one at the
neck, does the skin seem dry? When you then hold the neck
between thumb and finger and roll it back and forth, is it dry and
rustley, or slick and slippy?
And are you selling it right away, in which case it might not be
so critical? or are you wanting to have it for long term storage?
More questions than answers, but I hope it helps!
