These are real mounted Texas Western diamondback rattlesnakes. The 44"-47" are approximately 9" or taller, 2.25" wide with a base width of 6.5". One weighs approximately 6 ounces. The snakes are measured from the tip of the nose to the end of the rattle.
Please note that the coiling of the snake might differ from one to another.
None of our rattlesnake products come from California or Oregon.
Texas Western diamondback rattlesnakes are not endangered and are not subject to CITES controls.
A USFWS export permit is required for export out of the USA.
Rattlesnake skin attracts bugs easily. The advice we received from the man who makes these is to use dry heat to kill the eggs and bugs. Put it in the oven at about 130°F for an hour or two. This will not damage the mount and should kill any bugs or eggs. Keeping it in an enclosed case should protect it going forward.
