Rabbit

I have a albino rabbit that i would like to mount and not sure if i should tan it or not. I looked through WASCO and seen all the kits for tanning mammals. Which one to use? Also who has the best selection of forms and eyes? The rabbit did have bluish colored eyes. I only mount birds, so this is all new to me. Much thanks for all the help.

to tan but I personally tan EVERYTHING that I do. My experience with rabbits is that no matter how careful you are, they shed. They may well be a good thing for dry preservative but I am not sure. Bruce Rittel might be able to help you on this, he has tanned many rabbit skins. Good luck, let us know how it goes, Brad (Rittels)<Click on
