Title: Not sure what to do...
Post by: stinkpickle on May 22, 2015, 05:38:20 PM
My BIL ("CSAW") just shot this bird, and we were just trying to decide if he should keep these legs or use them as chew toys.  Opinions?

:TooFunny:

That may be a mount-worthy bird.

That is very cool! NEVER saw that before...

That might call for some sort of special mount or display? This one looks kind of cool -

This is what I do with good spurs. Neat desk ornament. Staple & tie into this position on a board, then cover with borax for a couple months. Perfect preservation.
