Do it yourself. Most of the major supply companies carry kits for tanning snakes.

i did a rattler skin years ago myself. my taxidermist said just to rub the thing down well with boraxo & it worked fine. I guess the idea is that its a reptile and has no fat or something like that. anyway it was fun cause the SOB took a wack at me while out PD shooting & i got my revenge

Hey BUtch:

Did you eat it too?

Best chicken you'll ever eat, give it a try.

On the skin, don't just use salt and stretch it. Dries it out too thin and shrinks it quite a bit.
