Sunday, Feb. 2nd, RAT Taxidermy Class at Curio Cabinet of the Hudson Valley; 300 Main Street, Poughkeepsie NY. 12pm-6pm give or take! This is not a physical item or something that is shipping, I do not need your address. I do this so folks can use payment plans if needed, I couldn’t figure out an option listing as a service item 😅 

Rat Taxidermy Class: This class will introduce students to the process and techniques behind basic small mammal taxidermy. Students will learn how to skin, prep, preserve, mount, and position the animal.  Basic armatures will be used and students will learn how to carve head forms. We will discuss how to properly mold items for taxidermy use at home. Students are encouraged to bring in any props they may want to dress the animal up in.  I will provide all specimens, materials, and tools for the class. Each student will leave with his or her own finished mount.

Wear some clothes that can get a little dirty, a beverage, and a snack if needed. Students are encouraged to break whenever needed. Class usually runs 4-6hrs for this course.
