New turkey fan w/ spurs and beard

Finally got caught up on customer's stuff and did one for myself. Good old Rio with pretty good spurs and beard.

I like it

Long beard and nice hooks on that gobbler. Good looking display

the skin on those legs will dry up, lose their color, flack off and/or start growing nasty stuff.

i recommend you strip off all the scales and stuff under them off and get it down to bone, then dap with a little peroxide to whiten them after washing good with dawn.

Looks good !

I don't think so...
They were soaked in preservative and I added a sealer. I have one that's considerably older, and it still looks the same.

Pretty cool

Looks great. I've been looking for a good mount for a double bearded bird I took down this past spring. Where did you get the mount? Make it yourself? Need a lead. Thanks!

I used this one, and it worked out great.

Thanks! I'll check it out. I've got a beautiful Rio just laying around waiting for the right mount.

That is a hell of a paddle

Made it myself. Normally do a bunch of euros every winter. Just started adding a few turkey fans this year.
