About J&M Taxidermy

J&M Taxidermy is located in Red Springs, North Carolina, a small community in Robeson County in the southern Sandhills region. This part of the state has long-standing traditions around deer hunting and turkey hunting, with large tracts of private farmland and timberland that produce quality game each season. J&M provides local access to professional taxidermy work without the long drive to larger cities, which matters when you're transporting fresh specimens after a hunt.

Taxidermy

Services & Process

J&M likely handles the staple services that Robeson County hunters need most: shoulder mounts for whitetail deer, full turkey fan and beard mounts, and skull cleaning for hunters who want a cleaner, lighter display option. Antler mounting is another common request in this region, allowing hunters to preserve the rack without the cost of a full shoulder mount. For anglers fishing the Lumber River and nearby ponds, fish mounts round out the studio's typical workload.

Service Area

J&M Taxidermy serves Red Springs and the surrounding Robeson County communities, including Lumberton, Maxton, and Pembroke. Customers from neighboring Scotland and Hoke counties also make the trip when they want local, hands-on taxidermy work done close to where they hunt.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best way to prepare a turkey for mounting?
Keep the bird cool and dry immediately after the harvest and avoid bending or folding the tail feathers. If you're after a full body mount, freeze the turkey whole and transport it frozen. For a fan mount, carefully spread and dry the tail fan flat before bringing it in.
Can J&M handle deer taken from Robeson County farmland?
Absolutely. Farmland deer from this part of North Carolina are some of the most commonly mounted animals at local studios, and a studio in Red Springs will have plenty of experience with the local whitetail population. Bring the cape in as fresh as possible for the best results.
What does antler mounting involve compared to a shoulder mount?
An antler mount preserves just the rack on a plaque or panel, without the skin and facial detail of a shoulder mount. It's a more affordable option that still displays the antlers prominently and works well for hunters who want to remember the hunt without the full investment of a shoulder mount.
How do I know if my hide is still in good enough condition for mounting?
Signs of problems include a foul smell, hair that pulls out easily when you tug on it, or visible discoloration. Bring it in as soon as you can and let the taxidermist assess it directly. Sometimes minor slippage in marginal areas can be worked around depending on where it occurred.
Do you offer payment plans for taxidermy work?
Payment policies vary, but many small studios ask for a deposit at drop-off and the balance at pickup. It's worth asking J&M directly about their terms, especially for larger projects like full body mounts that carry higher costs.
Can I get a Lumber River fish mounted?
Yes, local taxidermists in the Red Springs area are familiar with the species found in the Lumber River drainage, including largemouth bass, catfish, and bowfin. Bring your catch in on ice the same day you pull it from the water for the best mounting results.
