Saving your deceased snake's skin?

Kobylka already does some of this stuff.

This makes me nauseous, thinking about my baby dying... Darn, I know he'll live for a long time as long as I do my part and keep everything dandy and as long as no pop up diseases come!

I think justin only uses the sheds though.

The only absolutes in life are death and taxes.

Very different, everything done by Justin is done with shed skin from various snakes and not the actual skin of a dead snake.

Plenty of salt and some time later and its pretty well preserved. The first milksnake I did was about 11-12 years ago, and its still in prefect condition. It isn't hard, you just have to figure out where the inside edge of the skin membrane is, and use a fish filet knife to carefully remove it from the muscles and such.

Taxidermy on snakes is done all the time with rattlers. I have salted a 7 foot eastern diamondback skin and still have it 13 years later.
