Services & Process

Mulhollems Taxidermy covers the preservation needs of local hunters and anglers in the south-central Pennsylvania region. Deer shoulder mounts remain the most requested service, requiring precise caping, form fitting, and finishing work to achieve a natural look. Skull cleaning through maceration or beetle colony methods produces clean, display-ready European mounts that have become increasingly popular as a modern alternative. Antler mounting and small game work round out the typical service offerings for this type of local studio.

Mulhollems Taxidermy serves Middletown and the wider Dauphin County area, with clients coming from Harrisburg, Hershey, Elizabethtown, and surrounding Lancaster County communities. Its central location along Route 230 makes it an easy stop for hunters from multiple directions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a shoulder mount and a European mount?
A shoulder mount preserves the full head and neck with the hide attached to a form, creating a lifelike three-dimensional display. A European mount is a cleaned skull with antlers attached, offering a cleaner, more minimalist look that's also typically less expensive.
How much does a deer shoulder mount typically cost in Pennsylvania?
Prices vary by studio and the size of the deer, but shoulder mounts in Pennsylvania generally range from $400 to $700 or more for premium work. Always get a firm quote before leaving your cape.
Can you mount a turkey I harvested during spring season?
Yes, wild turkey mounts are a popular request, and they can be done as full-body mounts, fan and beard displays, or strutter poses. Bring the whole bird in as soon as possible after the harvest and keep it cool or frozen until drop-off.
Do you offer reproduction fish mounts?
Reproduction mounts are made from fiberglass casts painted to match your fish's markings, so you don't need to sacrifice the actual fish. They're especially popular with catch-and-release anglers who want a permanent memento without keeping the fish.
Is a deposit required when I drop off my trophy?
Most taxidermists ask for a deposit at drop-off, typically 25 to 50 percent of the total cost. This covers materials and holds your spot in the work queue.
How do I care for a finished mount at home?
Keep mounts out of direct sunlight and away from high-humidity areas to prevent fading and skin cracking. Dust them gently with a soft brush, and avoid using chemical sprays near the hide or feathers.
