Silver Fox Mounting

Submitted by Vic on 3/4/06 at 6:06 PM. ( ) 205.188.116.74

I would like to mount a silver fox for my own. I don't see any forms in any of the supply catalogs for silver fox. Anyone know if you could mount a silver fox on either a red or gray fox form? Thanks for any information

Haven't done one myself but almost positive red fox form. Check McKenzie I think I seen some in there mounted on RF forms.

A silver fox is just a color phase of a red fox-exactly the same animal.The color phase occurs mainly in the Northernmost parts of the red's range and some of these foxes can be bigger than ones further south.Any red fox form the correct size will work.The same goes for black and cross foxes-all reds.The gray fox is a completely different animal and built quite differently.Gray fox forms won't work.
