hello I am looking for someone to possbly mount a beaver I just got yesterday. I cant afford alot of money but would pay someone to do it if they would like to experiment on it. Let me know if your interested in doin it and what you would charge me. I have always wanted to do taxidermy but my schedule allow no time.

Cheap?

Beavers are not the easiest critters to mount and asking for a cheap job will not get you the quality job you want.I woudn't do one on a base for less than $400.00


Does it have feathers?

Tony
Find one of those taxidermists in the forums that complains "He can't get that price in his area ', and thats the person to bring it to. Really good cheap prices. Try searching the archives.

I have skinned plenty of them and can say those suckers have alot of fat and are thick.I couldn't really image the time involved in doing one.
