Aoudad forms

Submitted by HeadHanger on 1/22/02. ( gsc@crcom.net ) 65.198.130.77

I have recently received my first Aoudad to be shoulder mounted and I have a question for all you seasoned vets out there that have dealt with these critters before. Which supplier offers the highest quality and most anatomically correct form on the market? I was told by a friend that Precision Mannikins offers a very nice form for the Aoudad sheep. Any further comments or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Don Holt's line which is carried by Van Dyke, is top of the line. No symmetry problems. It's about as close to perfect as you can get.

is that you need one that FITS! There are not a lot of forms out there for them. Get one that is close in size as their skin stretches a LOT! You could end up with one that looks like he had an air compressor stuck in his rear. Make sure that if you decide to turn the head and/or neck that the horns will clear the wall. Other than that they are a breeze to mount.


Thanks
