And skin the feet out then use caulk or clay as filler when you mount it.

Just brought my mink in from shop. I just did one, and I left toes and tail in untill second day in pickle. then pulled the toes out with plieres. For filling I used clay. I have had caulk leak out and get all over the hair. Critter clay won't do that. Or if it does it is alot esaier to clean up. To get the clay into the foot I rolled it up into little balls that would roll down the inside of a small pipe. I had a pice of an arrow. when The clay was in the foot I used the same tubing to roll the clay towrad and into toes. Hope I was clear enough, it worked realy good for me.
