Desert Bighorn Cape, what's it worth?

[Syncerus1]

I may sell my caped Desert Bighorn. I have heard they can bring stupid prices. Anybody have any idea of price range. Very long cape, tubed front legs, no cuts, light chocolate color. Information appreciated!
Thanks...

You might take a look on the taxidermy.net website. I would also caught to make sure it's legal in both state where you are selling and buying!

They definitely can fetch a decent dollar amount. There are several variables. Shoulder cape vs Lifesize, tanned vs raw and maturity of animal. Hide damage and or markings play a big factor as well.

I get what you are saying.......but a guy needing a dbh cape can't be real choosy....

the only thing I am having a problem with here is ,
Why would you sell a cape?are you doing a European mount only on a sheep?

If I ever kill another sheep......I will euro it...best looking euros and you can handle the horns...

I sold my Nevada desert (avator) for 4k a couple yrs ago.
Did a euro and put it on a oak table between my couches.

Super ram! Love the heavy Argali edge on his horns, once in a lifetime right there Sir! 7+ years old? Wow, just wow!!

If it's just the cape then you left about a couple grand out in the field!

Price for LS is ALOT more than a cape.

My brother sold his UT cali LS for 3k. Same buyer bought both of them.

Still available?

I have a full body cape already wet tanned stored in my freezer I would sell if anyone is interested. I would possibly trade it for a good quality mule saddle with a 15 1/2" seat, not a slick fork. The ram has a beautiful thick cape. He came out of unit 161 in Nevada in 2010. Only flaw is the tips of his ears were frost bit which is pretty typical of the sheep in that unit.

Throw it on TAXIDERMY.NET
Full body hides sell quick. Ran a search and the last couple sold for 4k or more. Pretty rare to have 1 available. Mine sold in less than 1 day.
