Clip the tail with gloves and put it in a sealed bag of aquarium charcoal(50%), Borax (25%) and baking soda (25%). Leave there a month.

Just a few of my "discount" material sources.

Yes, shooting an albino deer gives you bad luck. I almost died twice within the 7 year stretch after killing it. 1 was a near death treestand accident, the other was a close call of almost driving off a cliff while off roading because a wire was cut going down a rock dump. Well, I guess the key word is almost.

Nice pics bow mike, i really dig that .22! looks like your a helluva shot with it.. ok, this is probably a stupid one but what about marabou? im guessing it comes off a chicken?!

[bowmike 0]

The orange rifle is a 17 hmr. The dark colored grey squirrel that was shot in the eye was with my .22 though. I went up to the 17 hmr to allow for longer range shots.

 

Not a bad group. First two were for the eye and the last was for the bull eye center.

marabou does come from a chicken. I am not positive but i think the breast and side area.

[riffleriversteelheadslayer 0]

yup marabou comes from chickens

I'm fairly sure you can find some good turkey marabou too.
