This is my first time ever dealing with bones (and doing anything remotely taxidermy-related honestly) and I'm looking for some advice on this deer skull (part of a full skeleton) I found in the woods and brought home
- Dirty teeth
I've scrubbed the teeth a ton with dawn soap and it's been soaking in hydrogen peroxide for a full day so far (skull was flipped over to show teeth). Is dirty teeth pretty normal for this kind of stuff? If not how could I fix it?
- Antlers?
Is there something cheap (and smaller than real antlers) that I can use to make some fake antlers on it? I was just considering making some woth tin foil and masking tape but if there're better options it would be good to know.
My plans for this skull is to put some sort of netting inside of it was it's all secured in the position I want it and popping some soil and plants in there. Potentially painting some cool little patterns on it to make it fun. (Please excuse the messy sketch)
Thanks for reading! ✌️
