One generic nuga should give you enough usable hide to do a nice sporran. However, because of their rough mating habits there are often imperfections in the hides. These imperfection either adds character or make it difficult to get larger unblemished cuts from the hide. The Humongous Nuga has a large hide of about 3 sq. yard. This hide is stiff and difficult to work with without extra processing.
I hope this was informative.
