taxidermy question

Postby indamarsh » Tue Jan 17, 2012 7:35 am

have 2 pretty birds. initially thought to eat them so gutted and put in cooler. now wet and gutless, I am having second thoughts of having a dead mount made. would this be possible with wet gutless birds? just a cut below sternum which would be facing the wall on the mount.

It's possible. Wet is not a problem, but depends on how bad you butchered them to get the guts out. A taxidermist may charge you more for excessive repairs.

That'd be a good reason.
