Big Browns Report post Posted July 5, 2021 Over this past year I've been in the process of learning Taxidermy. I retire from the state in 7 years, so I'm hoping to make Taxidermy my retirement job. It's been a really fun learning process. Here are a few I've done recently. 7 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jfos Report post Posted November 3, 2021 They look great! Do you have any pricing info? Would be willing to send business your way if it comes up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Browns Report post Posted November 3, 2021 I'm still learning so I'm keeping my prices in line with my skill level. I'm able to do most deer/Javelina shoulder mounts between $500-$600. For a small additional cost I can get shoulder mounts done within 60 days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GreyGhost85 Report post Posted November 4, 2021 Good on ya man. A good friend i worked with for about 10 years was able to quit a few months ago and pursue taxidermy full time and in your neck of the woods. Glad i still get the good guy treatment as he already has to turn people away so he can keep a good turnover time . Lots of people want taxi work these days.

Something I've wanted to learn for 20 years. Definitely enough buisness around. I've actually been shocked with the amount of buisness. I'm also shocked to hear the horror stories about other taxidermist. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
