Costs?

Hello,
I am just starting my buisness and need to figure out how to charge for a life-size black bear mount that is already tanned. I dont know about how many hours I would have in it because it is tanned and I have never done a bear. Could anyone please tell me aprox. how many hrs you would have in a quality bear mount after the tanning etc. is already done? Also any imput on how you guys/gals charge on habitat not. Thanks to all Hank

Hank, That's really not possible

Like people, there a short ones, tall ones, skinny ones, and fat ones. Then there's your experience level. Go to the "Links" listed above and find taxidermists near you and see what they're charging for life-sized bears to get an idea. Most are listed without dioramas and that also has to be taken into consideration.

Thanks

thanks

bear costs.

I get $250 per linear foot nose to tail plus 25% additional for the base work
