BirdBlaster Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Looking to see if anyone has a drake white winged scoter they would be willing to gift. A friend's dog got a hold of my mount and absolutely destroyed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BirdBlaster Posted January 18, 2017 Author Share Posted January 18, 2017 I can pay to have it shipped overnight so it stays frozen. I've got a friend who does work for me cheaper than other taxidermists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 If you can't find one here, you might try the taxidermy.net forums. Sometimes those folks have birds to legally gift. Sent in an insulated box, frozen, with some freezer packs overnighted is the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finfeathr Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Ship it in a large flat rate box usps..$18.75...pack it in 2 plastic bags and insulation around it. If it thaws, just put it back in the freezer, a scoter is a tough bird, it won't spoil in the 2-3 days it will take in transit. I gift birds all over the country with this method.
