Title: Taxidermist for turkey
Post by: monster on March 26, 2017, 05:20:59 PM: I am looking for a recommendation on a taxidermist for a turkey mount. My regular taxidermist does not do turkeys. I live in Duvall

John, if you see this, every time I go in my office, I get to admire your work!

Another vote for leon. I just dropped off some ducks a couple months ago and he had some turkeys that looked amazing. If it has feathers I am taking it to leon.
