We aim to return your trophy within one month. Beetle-cleaned skulls may take longer, and this will be discussed at drop-off. Often, you may receive your trophy within a couple of weeks, but we prefer to set realistic expectations.
-
Ideally, skulls should be:
- Completely skinned (no hide left)
- Bottom jaw removed
- Not in a plastic bag – let your trophy air dry or drop it off frozen. Avoid airtight bags as they breed maggots and cause unpleasant odors.
-
We appreciate your patience as we complete the various steps and chemical processes needed to ensure your trophy lasts a lifetime. These processes take time, and we are dependent on external supply chains. Rest assured, your trophy will be completed in the order it was received. For urgent needs, we offer rush fees.
