Pheasant wattle repair

Ripped wattles under eyes. Can they be sewn back together as much as possible, then sculpted with epoxy? If so, should this be done before or after mounting? And would it have to be a certain type of epoxy(flesh,all purpose, etc.?) Thanks in advance. DirtDawg

Just mount it and when you do you eye and wattle adjusting
pull the skin out alittle with a pin at the hole & put alittle super glue behind it & stick it in place. It should be fine.
Unless you mean the whole wattle is about ripped off, then sew it.
