    About MOA Custom Skulls

    MOA Custom Skulls is a taxidermy studio located in Conesville, Ohio focused exclusively on professional skull cleaning and European mounts.

    They use Dermestid beetles, degreasing, and whitening to produce sanitary, attractive trophy skulls for hunters and collectors locally and across the United States.

    Animal Mount Details

    They handle a wide range of big game, small game, predators, and exotics, offering skull cleaning and European mounts only.

    You can choose from various plaque styles and Euro brackets to display your finished European mounts.

    With over 20 years of experience in the skull cleaning industry, they describe themselves as pioneers in professional skull cleaning.

    They emphasize careful, museum-style beetle cleaning to avoid shrinkage, cracking teeth, or damage from over-boiling while delivering clean, white, realistic skulls.


    Pricing & Turnaround

    They publish a detailed price list with set fees by animal size and type—for example, small animals around $50, deer and similar game around $150, larger North American game up to about $250, and separate pricing for panels, Euro brackets, and clear coating—while noting that prices can change and special cases may cost extra.

    They aim to return specimens in about 3 to 4 months and notify you if production issues cause delays, with guidance to ship specimens early in the week so they do not sit over a weekend.

    They also offer mounting plaques, display panels, Euro brackets, clear coating options, and detailed packing and shipping instructions for customers who mail in specimens nationwide.
