Any advice for Snake skeleton? | Taxidermy.net Forum
Aug 25, 2012 · It is too late now as the maggots have already got to it. A snake skeleton is a horrendous nightmare to put back together. That is why you use dermestids.

Oct 26, 2006 · My 15 ft burmese python skeleton I will section probably 3 ft at a time and feed the beetles, I've only cleaned its skull to date.
