Crab mount
 

Finally brought my crab to the taxidermy im going to go with a tables mount with sand and rocks, ill post some pics when its all finished. He already started on it so it wont be that much longer.

Sweet!! Where are you getting it mounted?

I think I've seen this crab on a taxidermy page on facebook but don't wanna tell bjhooper wrong

That's pretty cool. Will be a unique mount for sure.

How big is that crab?

Juuuuust about as big as that box

That's pretty damn cool. Bout how much does it run to have a crab mounted?

I would like to know the process of doing it. Seems pretty tricky

You talking about ol' boy from Johnson Bayou?

A buddy of mine in Johnson bayou.

From point to point is 11 inch.

He's charging me 100 w/ sand and rocks, it will look pretty cool.

They actually very hard to do, you have to take it completely apart and put it back together. It think I would have ate it.

you can boil one, then put it in an ant pile for awhile, then when its cleaned out shine it up with some spray laccur and glue to a board with rocks or greenery. Is real easy to do and comes out looking good but the crab is red from the boiling and you lose all the natural colors.

You just have to paint it when you do it like that.
