Default RE: Full Mount Turkey

Inormally don'trespond to these questions, because typically someone has just shelled out some money and they don't like to feel like it was for nothing. So the best answer is normally if your happy were all happy.

But...Turkeys are something you have to search long and hard for someone who actually can do quality work. And most taxidermists reserve to the thinking that a turkey mount can't be made to look like the real thing. When in fact, it is the individual taxidermists inability to do so. Turkeys can be made to look very much alive and quality work will always do so.

Compare your mount to actual photos of strutting turkeys, and you'll see how well your taxidermist did. While the head looks fairly good from the photo, the rest of the bird needs some serious adjustment.
