I want to make a necklace with rat bones (which i would bronze cast), and i figured i could get a dead rat from petco- but i'm wondering how do i speed up decomposition? i want to get fly larvae or something to eat all the dead flesh but i'm not sure where to get it- do you have any suggestions?
pauldonald, maggots are not such good cleaners because they tend to damage fragile bones. what is really said to work are dermestids, dead-flesh-eating bugs that clean skeletons pretty nicely...you should look them up!, they make the meat removing a lot more easier and less stinkier because you have to dry the meat before it rots.
Maybe a biological supply company like Carolina Biological Supply, or a graveyard (a little bit more macabre), but im not 100% sure about the graveyard. You might be able to buy them, they are standard equipment for making museum skeletons and stuff.
the best way of taking the meat off the bone of a dead rat is to put the dead rat in a jar and fill the jar with maggots coz maggots only eat dead flesh so you will have no worries with taking the bones out of the jar. Nixon was this shot from your own house?
Good Video Nixon. Made a good point why have a living pet when you can have a dead pet. Good video just need some work on your lighting. Can't wait too see more.

Well done, I enjoyed that. Too bad can't use that method on the EMS rig. Would make my job so much simpler sometimes lol
