Taxidermist equivalent of dropping your phone

Trying out some new materials and methods this year. Gobble gobble 🦃 I'm hoping that using pastels will give it a soft finish, especially when I start to add the red.

From here on out ALL turkeys will get their real head! In the past I've just used a replica head but freeze dried heads look sooo much better. I can't wait to get these bad boys (and girl haha) painted and put together.

Turkeys coming soon!

The trapping season is winding down in PA for the year, check out this beast of a raccoon a customer brought me yesterday!! He's the oldest raccoon I've ever seen, with a mouth full of rotten, loose teeth.

I got a new shipment of predator eyes in today, about to start throwing critters together for the year!! Toggle through the photos for their species.

Foxes, bobcats, and coyotes!

I think some part of me always wanted to be a taxidermist 🥺 No the form isn't made of clay, it's foam, but the idea was already there!

Please welcome Crissy to the Second Life Taxidermy team! She's the new pest control specialist, and has an impressive resume!

When you drop off your animal, please DO NOT give her your downpayment. She's a bit untrustworthy

Finishing off the year with a really pretty 10 point. Flintlock bucks either get finished in 4 months or 12 and there's no in between 😅

My sika hind from Maryland is all tanned! Now I have to find a form 😂 Such a tiny little deer even though she was an adult.

A beautiful female bobcat arrived tonight, she's got a very nice red color and some spots!
