Title: 4 beards suggestions
Post by: MDSTRUTNRUT on April 24, 2014, 10:45:15 PM
Daughter got a 4 bearded 2 yr old  this week in Maryland, looking for suggestion of some kind of mount.   Not looking for full mount maybe wall 1/2 mount or some other way to display beards maybe a shadowbox with a picture backdrop.   ANY IDEAS OR PIX WOULD BE APPRECIATED   THNX IN ADVANCE!

I did a shoulder mount gobbling one time for a client with a 5 bearded bird to show off it's beards. It worked good, took up less space on the wall, and cost less than a full body mount.

We decided on a half mount prob same as shoulder mount by a friend, she really didnt have room for a full mount so this was our best option just in time for Christmas!

Yea we liked how it came out too, taximan recommended to exaggerate the top 3 beards so you could see them better.
