Thanks .
It seems small considering it came off of a 40# coyote . Makes you relize how little of a target you have if a person was going to make a head shot.

Dermestid Beetle. Google it and you can start your own colony. I have been tempted but, have not tried it...yet!

Should be no trouble with the .204 Clint ;)

Boiled and bleached?

I'd never thought much about collecting trophies (missus wouldn't have a bar of it). But at some stage I've gotta man up my man cave.

Dan they only charged me $30.00 to do it and you are right that is just a chip shot for a 204 .
You will have to get the misus use to it some time :)

Ramos you are right about the beetles . The only down fall to the whole operation is the smell of the dead carcus while they are working

I guess I could start by mounting about a dozen skulls. Then when she loses it, I'll take down half and we've got a compromise 8)
