after YEARS of wanting to.. i’ve finally done my first injections of proper preserving agent ♡

my first “experience” with wet specimens was in middle school when i found a dead honeybee. i placed it in a tiny jar with HAND SANITIZER (shown in second slide) .. and ive wanted some proper specimens since.

hopefully ive done it correctly : injecting in the belly & appendages. and then leaving them in there with some formalain .. going to change it in a few !

did it with formalain , got from a veterinary supply online :)

any tips & tricks ? thanks!

Is there something wrong with my wet specimen?

I bought this fetal beaver back in February from the oddities and curiosities expo and in a few months that I’ve had him his liquid (the vendors told me it was 7% isopropyl alcohol) has become very brown and foggy. Is there something that I need to be doing to fix this or did I get scammed? Any advice is welcome just please be kind. (1st pic is horrible quality but that is the day I got him and the second image was from today)

recommendations for isopropyl resistant adhesives?

for anyone who's kept specimens with adhesives applied long term, which types have you had the best success with in general? ive encountered some limb damage in a tarantula and have to proceed with a lot more caution now.. it is also an undried specimen, so the adhesive either needs to be fast setting or capable of setting within the freezer. thanks for any advice!

How should i dispose of this…

I’ve had this snake in a bottle of isopropyl alcohol for a few years now.. i honestly forgot about it because it was behind my tv and my desk was a disaster. I found it outside at a park right after it had died and I didn’t do the proper research and it doesn’t look like it’s decayed a whole lot but I know I can’t keep it. Is it okay to just throw it away ?

Looking for straight answers for preserving eggs

My friends just gifted me an egg(unfertilized) and I’ve spent all morning trying to figure out the best way to go about it but none of the resources I’ve looked at say anything about eggs and just cover mammals/reptiles. and I’m getting a little frustrated because I wanna do my best to keep the shell whole.
