wireing grouse

Submitted by Taxidermy nut on 03/27/2003. ( ) 209.177.6.111

Searched the arcives and can't find what Im looking for. Im geting ready to mount a grouse standing drumming. Do I run the wire threw the foam body or do I just push some wire in the foam. Do I wire the legs / wings first then put the wire in the body and mount? One more ? how do I get the wire down threw the legs out the feet do I just push it through? wait one more what size wire should I use for this grouse. LOL Thanks NUT

I hate to spoil your day, but from your questions, I'm led to believe you've never mounted a bird before. If that's the case, my FIRST suggestion is for you to buy a tape and watch closely. Otherwise, my limited vocabulary can't explain all you need to do. You must SEE it done to get a grasp of what we could explain here.
