Care Your Bird Right Before You Bring It In
- Do not gut it. Field-dressing ruins a mount, we need the whole bird intact.
- Cool it fast. Get it out of a warm blind bag; heat and damp are the enemy of feathers.
- Nylon it. Slide it head-first into a stocking to hold every feather flat.
- Bag & freeze. Press the air out, seal, and freeze until you can reach us.
