This may be a stupid auestion but I am going to ask anyway.
I shot a little buck at the end of this season and decided to do a Euro mount. Instead of boiling the skull, waiting on wild insects or natural decomposition to remove the flesh, I bought some dermestid beetles to experiment with. So besides the skull, I kept a few of the leg bones and both shoulder blades to give the beetles something to practice on before moving on to the skull.
Now that I have a handful of femurs, shoulder blades, etc...I have been wondering what I can do with them. Of course knife handles came to mind.
Is there anything special that needs to be done with the leg bones besides maybe drying for a period of time? Anyone here ever worked with it?
Curious if it is something worth pursuing or should I just give these to the dogs to gnaw on?
Thanks
