        Animal Mount Details

        Hamilton Taxidermy works on big game, small game, birds, fish, and novelty or antler‑only pieces.

        They offer shoulder mounts, game head mounts, European skull mounts with dermestid beetle cleaning, bird mounts, tanning, and specialty or novelty plaques.

        Randy has been providing taxidermy services for over 20 years and has at least 15 years of experience personally tanning hides in‑house.

        He focuses on quality materials and processes, personally tanning capes and using dermestid beetles to produce durable, detailed, museum‑style skull work.


        Pricing & Turnaround

        Hamilton Taxidermy lists flat pricing for many mounts, such as deer shoulder mounts around $450, elk shoulder mounts around $650, and a range of small mammal mounts, with a request to call for bears and any work not listed.

        They emphasize minimizing delays by tanning capes in‑house and maintaining a large dermestid beetle colony for faster European mounts, but actual turnaround times can vary and the shop may book up during busy periods.

        The studio offers antler‑only and novelty plaque work, along with dermestid beetle skull cleaning for European mounts that preserves fine detail and eliminates odors.
