First Attempt At Maceration - Deer Skull | Taxidermy.net Forum
Dec 1, 2021 · Thanks! Adding the coyote skull seemed to do the trick! Nearly all of the white "membrane" material has been eaten away, and the skull appears nearly void of flesh! I might need to get another bucket and heater set up to start degreasing the deer while the coyote continues to macerate. Thanks for the tips so far!
Degreasing Problematic Sika Deer Skull | Taxidermy.net Forum

DEGREASING DEER SKULL - Taxidermy.net Forum
Oct 16, 2017 · If you have beetles, soak the skull for a day in water that you have added a good bit of ammonia to.

Don't worry about the ammonia, something about it attracts them and they might go for the flesh even though it is a year old.
How quickly do your beetles clean a deer skull?

How do I know this?
Bead Inlay on Skulls | Taxidermy.net Forum
Oct 24, 2008 · This is very theraputic. I actually got into this art because of an image from Mexico in National Geographic when I was a child. It was a human skull covered with Jade. The National Geographic has shown the image twice over the years. I remember looking at the pic for hours when I was a child. I have been doing this style since the 80's.
Sealing Skulls and Antlers? | Taxidermy.net Forum
Sep 14, 2006 · Skulls can be sealed with any clear wood finishing product like Deft. I would choose the matte type over the high gloss, unless you are looking for a shiny skull. It can also be sealed with Elmer's glue mixed with some water or modge podge. Again, I would use the matte modge podge over the glossy one. But that is personal preference.
