cry i really don't have money but you're my fav artist and i want to give you my support!! let me know if you'd be down for a taxidermy trade maybe with part money? i don't have much but maybe i can help! your designs are my one ultimate weakness tbh

mostly bones!! i do still have some mounted heads, like the dikdik, the coyote, and the random huge goat but idk if youre interested in head mounts. the dikdik is pretty small and cute but its and antique so its a little beat up! i have some mounted antlers (not sure what they belong to), some mounted cow horns, a big cow skull you (you can hang it up!), a polished cow horn (sorry lots of cows omg), some skulls (though a few are a little broken in places), one i believe is a raccoon, another is a bear, the other i'm sure is a gopher. i have an entire snake skeleton in a case, its venemous i believe some sort of rattlesnake. i have a coyote jawbone, pretty small. i have an ostrich egg (theyre so huge!) not any furs unfortunately. let me know if anything sounds interesting! i also have some butterfly cases but i think i recall you saying you werent really into bugs!

i do remember reaaaally wanting that goat head mount but it might be worth more than this adopt and it is probably a pain to ship xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I believe I paid around 80/100 for that guy! he is super huge though! there's a few adopts i really love so i could always do something for more than one but if you need the money more i understand. i have no idea how much shipping would cost but it would probably be out the wazoo. i could do the coyote or dikdik i actually have some boxes right next to me that would fit them .. but the goat is the coolest definitely!

probabaly $30-$40 since its gotta ve listed as fragile too. let me think about it hmm? id be happy to give two or three adopts for him, but i did have somone who had their eye on this but cant pay for a couple weeks. if this guy doesnt end up selling and youd be willing to pack up the goat i'd be excited to trade. the coyote is also very tempting but i like goats much more xD

the coyote is an antique but the base they used for the mount is super cool! the snarl is super cool! ofc there the pretty typical problems with the ears curling back off the base but its pretty easy to glue them back i could probably do it for you if it posed a problem! the goat is in pretty good condition although he could probably be shampooed and washed a lil
i would totally be willing to send one (or even both) to you if you wanted! (i would just need to figure out the shipping + stuff)
these were the adopts ive totally fallen in love with (besides this one)

(had to stop myself from just adding them all tbh)
i always love customs too so if youd rather wait to see if these guys sell i'm down, i just thought i might take some of these guys off your hands since theyve been around for awhile!

if you weigh and measure then, my zip is 44052 so you can calculate it. honestly right off the bat i'm willing to give you all but this newest one right off the bat for both of those. i've been dying for some wall mounts and i have a soft spot for vintage ones. i have a vintage quail and even though hes dusty and his foot is a little broken i still love him xD they yote would be great practice for mount restoration too honestly. if you're willing i can give you the last four of the five adopts you listed for those two mounts no problem. we could discuss a custom or some art too since i can't afford much in the way of helping you ship them xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
okay! I'll let you know how much the shipping is. i love my mounts but i'm trying to clean through and get rid of stuff i don't need so it's better for me anyways! i hate feeling cluttered! and yeah these two would be awesome for mount restoration. they're in pretty good condition but they can definitely be cleaned and fixed up a little! i got the dikdik head super cheap because she fell off the wall and her nose broke off so i bought her and molded a new one out of clay lol. fixing them up is really fun tbh. so for the two mounts would it be just the four or this one plus the four? sorry i just wanted to clear it up! and a custom/art sounds great!! i need like 3082619 reptile monsters apparently. i'm really busy this week and i'm off to Texas until the 26 so i won't be able to do much right now! but if you're okay with waiting a week or two for me to get the info to you then it should be okay! if not i can try my best to rush it tomorrow, just let me know if you need it that soon! :")
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
clarifying i meant four and not counting this one! i wanna hold it for at least two weeks i think to see if it'll get sold, but since the others have been unsold for three weeks or longer i'm willing to part at this point. xD
i'm so anxious of taxidermy all the time so the sooner you could get them ready for shipment, the happier i would be! if you must wait until you return, i can handle it though xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
okay!! if this one or your pastel pirate space pup (the first link) aren't sold by the time i get back i would love to buy them together tbh. i mean i could offer probably 100 now but unfortunately i feel like that's probably a lil too low. (plus i wanna see how much shipping costs before spending anything!)
and those four are fine!!! the dragon and the little slug guy are my favs they're just so cool so i'm definitely happy ;;
and no worries! I'll see if i can get a box for them tomorrow and get them all packed up! ill give u an update if something comes up tho!!

we can def discuss those two adopts after we calculate shipping for sure. i want to make sure the exchange rate is fair xD also, i'm searching for arctic fox fur scraps so if you have those anywhere i'd love to have them, but i get it if ya don't :0
fantastic, thank you!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
sounds great thank you so much! ;; and unfortunately i don't have any fur! i did have those two fox tails but i think i shipped them both to you? and i don't think either were arctic foxes!
i know Tombstone always has tons of taxidermy, maybe they'd have some fur for sale? i should def plan a trip down there sometime and see if i can nab anything for you ! :") if anything i can hop around some antique stores after i get my next paycheck and see if there's anything cool that i could get to you!
either way good luck on your search!

dude im always peeved the local antique stored never sell any pelts. sometimes they have some all too small fur coats but theyre honestly not that great for scrap because its always short, aged mink fur :c i would love if you kept an eye out for pelts from antique shops, i will always be interested xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i see a lot of rabbit pelts!! but it's always fun to go out and check. i used to frequent antique stores just because sometimes crazy stuff would pop up there! they were selling this antelope head for awhile downtown and it was so cool!! so sad i never bought it! but it would definitely be a fun little adventure for me, usually those don't sell fast so i can always take a picture and see if it would be something you'd like? are you collecting fur for a little project? or just because?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i just like to collect just because. im sure if i start making weekly trips to the shops i'd be able to find stuff too but boy i just.. always forget to.. oops xD but yeah dude it would be rad for you to keep me in your mind when you visit antique stores ;V;

okay so the coyote head i could probably ship for 30 or so but the goat head...its dimensions are 36x22x24... every website I've gone to tells me it's going to be 150+ to ship this bad boy. so what i can do is pack the coyote up and at least get that to you...i can offer something else or multiple other things in place of the goat head..or I'll just have to wait a few weeks until my paycheck comes in before shipping him. i still have those antlers and i also have a fully intact cow elk spine i know they're not as cool lol. if you really want the goat it'll just be a little while. first week of August or so probably just because i need to save up to ship him over. ;; let me know if any of those options sound ok? i can send you a pic of the goat to show you that it's a absolutely humongous (no idea how i only paid 80 when the shipping alone is worth more lol ;;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
GEEZ LOUISE! yeah dude can you send me photos of the goat again?? with a ruler too so i can get a good size idea in my head to really visualise all that. how much does it weigh? it can't be more like like 10 pounds yeah? i shipped a good sized box with 35 pounds of stuff inside and iy only costed me $60 and it's not like the box was tiny or anything.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
the coyote is def less than 10 lbs (unless i'm crazy..) i don't have a scale so i was holding it and it's suprisingly light. i really couldn't imagine it being any more then 10...i think maybe even like 5-6 but who knows. the goat is extremely heavy. maybe 20-30 pounds? it's pretty hefty tbh. the thing that racks up the price isn't the weight it's just the size. i can't even find a box big enough for it lol. I'll take a picture with measuring tape when i get back home so you can get a picture of how big it is! like i said. i think i can still ship it but it's gonna take a little time to get the funds + finding a box! i don't mind paying its just that this week is probably the worst week because i'm between paychecks and i just had to buy a 300 dollar (rip) parking permit for my university ;;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
its weight and size, but it def seems like size matters most for shipment. i bet it's the horns that make it so heavy. i know you can "make" a box but you have to use a lot of tape and make sure it's sturdy enough for shipment. what i did for an odd shaped parcel was take the free boxes that stores give out and taped them together with extra cardboard then i covered the thing in brown paper so it didn't look like a bomb or sonething xD
i would just feel terrible if you had to spend that much is all. i still really do want it though, it would be very prized as part of my collection xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah i don't think it's over 70 lbs and that's usually the limit...its just the size that's a bit of a problem. when i have time I'll see if i can go find a box but if not i was thinking about just making my own! and i really hope it's not that much lol. now is a great time to take a trip to the Grand Canyon if you ever wanted to go haha. my house is on the way i'm sure lol.

here are the pictures hopefully you can see the numbers. i know the lighting in my room is strange sorry!
like i said, i could at least get the coyote shipped as like a good faith kinda deal? you don't have to give me any of the adopts or anything until i figure out the goat head! I'll definitely have more time when i come back on the 26 to figure out how to ship it. if i have to pay 150 i wouldn't mind too much since you seem really interested :") i have no idea what kind of goat he is but he's super cool looking imo his horns are just awesome!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
god yeah, he definitely is huge... i've always wondered if they accept odd=shaped mail? liek if you just covered him entirely in bubble wrap, then covered him in a lot of parcel paper or something. i doubt it, but shipping is always confusing. xD
i'd love if you could get the yote out early! i know i can trust you, so i don't fret holding the designs until you can figure something out uwu when you showed me that goat originally i couldn't believe how bad i wanted him. goat mounts are def one of my favorite types!!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
oh yeah he is. i can't even imagine how big this guy was when he was alive jeeeeez
and maybe?? i could take a trip to the FedEx office and maybe ask? i should be free tomorrow afternoon to ship the coyote too! i have an old box that he will fit in...but can you resend old boxes? it's from petco for some bedding i ordered but it fits the coyote pretty well!
and i know!! goats are one of my favs animals they're just so weird. their pupils are cool too imo!! i love Jacobs sheep but i don't think those count as goats whoops
ok so I'll see about sending the coyote tomorrow and I'll give you the tracking info etc. I'll also ask the people there about the goat and see if they have any input. then when i come back I'll contact you again about the goat and I'll try to send it that week! if not i may just have to wait a little bit into August but i will definitely let you know! and let me know when it's okay to save those four designs!! i don't have my tablet or anything but i really wanna draw them sometime! ;;;
thanks for being understanding! shipping large things is not fun but i'm gonna do my best to make the whole process as easy and smooth as possible!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
you can reuse any box as long as it's not falling apart from age or whatever xD i would be very happy if you asked about the goat! i feel like i'm putting you through a lot of trouble, but i think we'll both learn from this xD you can save the adopts whenever, i don't delete them or anything. you can use two of the four designs as mucha s you want once the coyote arrives, but just incase the goat ends up not being shippable for whatever reason, then i just put the other two adopts back up or you could buy them from me or something. i just reALLY WANT THAT GOAT! species fact my birthday is sep 5th so maybe you could sneaky the goat into the post office early B))B)B) jk though!! I CAN WAIT! it would just be a cool present x'D
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
okay awesome! its a little beat up but its totally usable, if not i have two more. and ofc ill ask for you!! its totally not a problem!! and its okay, i dont think its too much of a hassle! i just feel bad i cant ship it right away tbh i cant wait for you to get him! hes seriously so cool looking, let me know if you ever find out what kind of goat he is! and ok sounds great! ill definitely try my darn hardest to get that goat to you so it shouldnt be a problem or anything! once i figure out the shipping we can talk about those two adopts (if theyre still unsold) etc. no need to worry about it now though!! and that would be an awesome birthday present oh man!! gotta put some balloons in the box or something lol, you open it and confetti explodes everywhere omg. what a terrible gift. but i def promise i will try my hardest to get that boy to you so no need to worry!!
