Hello,

My name is Kyle and I'm looking to acquire specimens of varying species for the next several years. I am paying live price for exceptional specimens and half price for specimens that may have issues in mounting (specimens are for taxidermy/preservation). In general I am looking for mature specimens with good color and weight at time of death. I will pay upfront, arrange shipping, provide guidance on shipping methods, and make the process simple. Let me know if there is anything I can take off your hands.

Venomous
  • Gaboons, Rhinos, Gabinos: Mature & Juvenile
  • Crotalus: Mature Specimens (especially leusistic or albino)
  • Bushmasters: Mature Specimens
  • Other Viperidae: Anything Mature and Beautiful
  • King Cobras: Mature Specimens
  • Varying species of Naja: Anything Mature and Beautiful
  • Anything else you feel is exceptional, throw it at me.
Non-venomous
  • Larger Pythonidae/Boidae: Reticulated, Green Anaacoda, etc.
  • Other reptiles such as crocodilians, Varanids, and anything cool!

Note: The biggest problem with reptile taxidermy is not getting the specimens frozen quickly enough. A reptile sitting for a half an hour in 70+ degree temperatures can cause the colors to fade. The quicker you get them into a freezer the better, freezing will stop the loss of color and make for better specimen preservation.

Hello! My name is Bryan. I have several snakes in my freezer. 2 adult yellow tail cribos, 1 Adult eastern hognose. Those of course weren’t species you listed, but I thought I would at least let you know. Just let me know either way.
Thanks!
