Services & Process

Skin Em All Taxidermy handles a range of preservation work suited to the Central Valley hunting and fishing scene. Waterfowl mounts are a specialty opportunity here, given the proximity to some of California's best duck and goose hunting grounds along the Delta. Big game shoulder mounts for deer, wild boar, and other California species are likely part of the regular workload. Fish mounts from Delta stripers or trophy bass catches are another natural fit, with reproduction and skin mount options available depending on what you're after.

Service Area

Skin Em All Taxidermy is based in Manteca and serves hunters and anglers throughout San Joaquin County and the surrounding Central Valley. Customers from Stockton, Tracy, Lathrop, and Modesto are all within easy driving distance. The shop's location also makes it convenient for Delta hunters coming off the water in the fall season.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Skin Em All Taxidermy have a perfect 5.0 rating?
A perfect rating, even with a smaller number of reviews, usually reflects consistent communication, clean craftsmanship, and pieces delivered on time. Reading the individual reviews will give you a better sense of what past customers specifically praised about their experience.
Can I get a duck or goose mount done in Manteca?
Yes, waterfowl mounts are very common in this part of California given how much duck and goose hunting happens along the Delta and in the surrounding fields. You'll want to keep your bird cool or frozen immediately after the hunt and bring it in as soon as possible.
What's the difference between a skin mount and a reproduction mount for fish?
A skin mount uses the actual fish skin stretched over a form, which can fade over time if not properly maintained. A reproduction mount is a fiberglass replica painted to match your fish's exact markings, and it tends to hold color better long-term.
How do I preserve a wild boar for mounting after a hunt?
Field dress the animal carefully and keep the skin from the shoulders forward intact if you want a shoulder mount. Get it to a taxidermist or a freezer quickly, since boar hides can begin deteriorating faster than deer in warm Central Valley weather.
Does the taxidermist in Manteca handle small mammals or exotic species?
Many full-service taxidermists handle a range of mammals beyond big game, including foxes, coyotes, and squirrels. It's best to call ahead and describe your specific specimen so the shop can confirm they work with that species.
How should I store my trophy if I can't drop it off right away?
Freezing is your safest option for any delay longer than a day or two. Wrap the cape or bird tightly in plastic to prevent freezer burn, and don't refreeze something that's already fully thawed, as that can damage the skin and hair.
