Our Method

Skull Brothers believes that our quality of work is at a different standard than our competition because of two simple reasons.  We don’t boil, and we don’t use beetles.  Because we don’t boil, our skulls stay strong, look more hydrated, and are whiter.  Boiling bone can compromise the bones integrity due to the extensive time in hot water. Skull Brothers treats each skull individually, giving your trophy our undivided attention and best work; as opposed to boiling multiple heads at once.

As far as why our method beats the beetles; you must feed beetles dried flesh.  It takes a while for even a mostly fleshed out skull to get to this dried point, and unfortunately, when you allow flesh to dry to bone, it can stain the bone. This is why some skulls may have a brown or purplish hue to them.  After the beetles do their work, this method still requires a long process of degreasing and whitening.  In the end, you are away from your trophy for a long time using the beetle route.  

Skull Brothers unique pressure system method removes raw flesh and leaves the bone in pristine condition. Giving you a fantastic and fully intact trophy to display on your wall.

 
I have been cleaning my own skulls for years before getting in touch with Skull Brothers. I have never been able to get 100% of the grease out of my heads in the past with traditional boiling and now every skull I get back from them is blinding white with no grease residue at all...Best money I have ever spent when it comes to taxidermy!
