OP, speaking of two headed taxidermy... ever been to the Buckhorn in Laramie?
|
|
Once done, they're worth nice money in oddity collectible field...like $2,500 or so for nice example.

These were brought in by one of our science teachers. They were brought to her by a local ranger. The lambs were joined at the rib cage and had 4 front legs. They ended up cutting it apart. We just got the front half, so I don't know if they were female or male. It was pretty gross. They were still covered with embryonic fluid, and very wet. They also had their some of their organs in the chest cavity. They didn't stink, but it was pretty disgusting. We looked at the taxidermy books, and decided that jackrabbit forms were the closest thing we were going to get so we ordered two of them. Students worked for a couple weeks on joining the forms and studying the pictures below. Here are the skinned lambs. https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4169/33859518104_b09291cc99_h.jpg Here they are with the jackrabbit form for comparison https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4161/34317531830_76fbf1c064_h.jpg You can see from this photo we needed to lengthen the neck, round off the back of the head, add to the top of the head, and work on the mouth. https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4166/34701900755_2ca16d619e_h.jpg View Quote |

No market for a two-headed lamb.
Now if we can bread two-ASSED lambs, we can make a fortune in the middle east. Except on Thursday. |

Cool, in!
I had a client bring me a two headed kitten once, had to put it down. |

I wish I would have had an art teacher like you when I was in high school. You let your kids do some cool shit.
