If you pay a good taxidermy it could cost from 350-500... I would not pay more than 350 though;)

That is why I'm learning to do my own;)

LOL, if you won't pay more than 350 you may not end up with much. 600-800 for a good one.

I'd go with Timberland on this one. I won't touch them for less than 5 bills

I agree with Timberland. Cheap taxidermists usually aren't good and good taxidermists usually aren't cheap!! You get what you pay for.

ROFLMAO
Yeah, just do your own. LOL There is a little more to it than that. Personally, if I wanted one and couldn't afford the 600 to getit done, I'd just get a bust mount or not do it at all. Finding someone to do it cheaper, say for 300 or so, is the same as throwing 300.00 out the truck window IMO.

TT go ahead and ROTF and LYAO... I know a Taxidermist and he does great work in the 300-350... I've done my home work and I have no shortage of specimens to practic on... ;)

I'm sure you do great work and if people chose to pay your prices good for you...
