          Animal Mount Details

          The studio works on big game, small game, birds, and fish, including game heads, life-size mammals, and fiberglass fish replicas.

          You can choose from shoulder mounts, full-body mounts, bird mounts, and custom habitat bases, as well as replica fish mounts.

          Owner Rich has been professionally mounting fish, birds, and mammals for over 30 years and draws on his background as an avid hunter, fisherman, New York State Sportsman Education Instructor, and wildlife rehabilitator.

          He emphasizes personal service, careful preparation, and studying live wildlife to achieve realistic, natural-looking mounts.


          Pricing & Turnaround

          Pricing depends on the project, with open-mouth small game mounts carrying an additional fee starting at $100 and extra charges for extreme poses and custom habitat bases, and they invite you to contact the studio for specific quotes.

          They state that crating and shipping are billed only at actual time, materials, and shipping cost with no hidden fees, and office visits are by appointment, but they do not publish standard taxidermy turnaround times.

          They offer custom habitat bases for birds and mammals, fiberglass fish replicas, commercial display work for TV and film, and basic butchering services for legally tagged deer and bear with all edible meat cut, wrapped, labeled, and returned.

          Summary of customer sentiment based on reviews across the web

          Reviews are mixed: some customers praise the quality and realism of multiple deer mounts and describe the work as skilled, while one detailed review reports serious issues on two mounts, including a bad smell and dissatisfaction with the outcome.

          Service feedback is also mixed, with one reviewer calling the owner friendly and planning to return, and another unhappy with how problems on a third mount were handled.

          There is not enough review information to draw clear conclusions on turnaround, and comments range from repeat customers who would use the studio again to one reviewer who advises others to go elsewhere.
