Title: snake skins?
Post by: Bearded.Jake on May 24, 2024, 11:49:47 pm

I am looking for western diamond back rattler skins. Any to trade or sell? or if you know of an ethical supplier, that would be great! I might be interested in sturgeon skins as well.
Thanks!

There ae some nice looking air dried ones on eBay from the same seller. They have gone up since the days I could buy a matched set for $25, looks like it would be closer to $100 now.

The best source of sturgeon skins is Weylon Olive. He has a source for the raw skins and he preps then expertly. They are seriously clean and ready to be applied.

I don't have any rattlesnake skins but do have three rat snake shins 46 inches or longer. I just tried to post photos of them but they're not formatted correctly for this site. I could text them to you from my cellphone 936-245-5074 if you are interested. Richard Meador ............ 9-29-2024 ..... I've still got the skins if anyone is interested

Thanks JW, I will have a look!

Thanks Richard, I was hoping to find something more representative of the area I live though. As far as I have read, Rat snakes are more of an eastern species?
