European skull mount
« on: November 02, 2015, 08:31:30 pm »
I tried this and it was easy and worked awesome, I removed the head and buried it so that the rack was about 3 to 4 inches under ground, put a mark on it so I would know where it was. Come back about the middle of summer dug it up and took a water hose to it. I think I'm going to put in on a old piece of barn wood. I'll put another photo when its all done.

Now that looks cool! I like the yellowing on the skull!

How did you keep it from being disturbed by vermin? Around here, even in my backyard it would last about 2 nights before being discovered and destroyed.

I didn't do anything, I think it was because I buried it with the rack standing up so the head was at the bottom of the hole with all the dirt on top of it. I did have the hole ready to go so I could just drop it in. I did it out in the woods of  the good state of Indiana. To be honest I was worried about something digging it up but nothing messed with it.

That is sure worth a try. I will pick a spot next time out.

I've recently learned you can put a head into a large fire ant mound and they will eat every bit of remaining flesh off in a few days. You might have to try that next!
