NJ Hunter / New Jersey Hunting / Taxidermist Reviews & Information / Fox mount question
Posted:  21 Sep 2009 8:11 PM
Had to leave the woods early tonite to pick up my brother so there was plenty of light left. Had a pretty little fox step out at 10 yards  while i was walking out.  Thought about taking it but the only use i would have for it is to get it mounted. I dont think i have the available funds righht now so i let it walk.  Was wondering what the average price would be for a full body mount for a fox?

Yeah wasnt sure about that either which another reason i let it walk. Where i hunt is loaded with them and i know ill get more opportunities which is what made me wonder how much it would cost.

Cost is on par with a deer mount, not cheap but worth it.  IMO fox make the best looking mounts of any animal in the NJ woods, now all I need is a gray fox.  I have two reds mounted, a large female and a large male both with perfect coats each taken in the middle of winter with a flintlock.

Just my opinion...Don't show teeth for a classy mount.

Fox mount in full winter coat with pheasant or quail in it's mouth looks really good

yea, summer coat is hard to hold hair on smaller animals like that.  wait till nov or later and if u dont have funds just wrap it up and throw it in the chest freezer and when u have 3-450 extra cash layin around depending on what u want bring it to t taxerdimist.  if your arounf flemington area my buddy did mine and its awesome!!

Average cost on a fox will more than likely be anywhere from 400-700 depending on who you take it to. Habitat extra, and usually a base will be extra unless you go very simple.

What Sandy said. If considering getting a Red Fox mounted and they are fairly prominent in your area you are much better off waiting until December thru February when their coat is in prime condition Good luck !!

A mount just like this is $575.00

or this

With another animal (charged acording to animal) or a base (35% x the cost of the mount), is more.

Nice mounts

My male is mounted like the top one and my female is like the second one laying down.  All I need is a gray.
