Hi Rick!
ReplyDeleteIt's DJ again! I haven't stopped by the site in a while but I need some advice about lifesize mammals, and Taxidermy.net was rather UNhelpful.
I don't know if you do those, but if so, I'd REALLY apreciate the advice!
should I ask here, or should I respond to an email?

thanks so much!

Hi DJ! How are you? I'm sorry that the taxidermy.net website was unhelpful to you. I've had good and bad experience with them too. Sometimes they're just plain old ornery, not easy to get along with. In any event, I'd be happy to help you. Yes, I do mammals. Email me, let me know what mammal it is, what you need help with, any questions, etc. I think posting it on this Google site would be best. That way, anyone else having similar questions or problems can get the information too. - Rick
ReplyDeleteHi Rick

Thanks for any advice, Jim L.

ReplyDeleteYou can if the skull plate and horn bases are about the same. You can also get some stretch when you rehydrate the top of the head and neck. Use a wet towel around the horns and head to rehydrate the hide. Then take out the stitches to do the change.
Email if I can help. - Rick
