I'll probably make sure they're completely dehydrated by using a bunch of dehydrating material, then I'll coat them with some kind of shalack or varnish, and then put them up on the wall within a frame with a little write up under each one.

Wow

pk! i have several mounts in my home, i do hunt and fish, and whatever, my taxidermist gave me this link
http://www.taxidermy.net/
it's a forum for taxidermists, you can ask questions there about how to replace the eyes as well as coating them with a preservative, they also should be able to tell you how to put them in a glass bubble like a paper weight and other ideas that they have. and no it's not sick, i still have a full pheasant and a black and white sqirrel in my freezer that are going to the taximan's place this month, i am getting my northern pike back next month 46 inches long WOOOOOT for the teeth on those things!!! i often freeze my fish if they die and save them, have taken several to the taximan's home and he takes care of them and puts them on ebay for sale. i get a discount on the other animals i have stuffed.
