Stuffed Turkey in glass case – $500
November 26th, 2009
Stuffed turkey with authenic freezed dried head (not wooden) housed in glass case.
CAN NOT BE SHIPPED
Every year, you worry about coming up with a nice centerpiece. Not anymore! Authentic freeze-dried head! Happy Thanksgiving.
And you can’t even eat it..
You can eat the head.
Crunchy.
Not much meat on that, though. You wouldn’t even get enough for a sandwich.
Unless you’re a curator for somewhere like the Horniman Museum (no sniggering at the back) why on Earth would you want this?
Seriously, wtf is the appeal of having long since dead animals around the place?
And freeze dried head makes it more appealing how?
WTF?
I’d get a contract with the dept o defense and set up a turkey gitmo detection camp. This would definitely intimidate the hell out of the inmates.
I guess you have to be from the South or at least the lower midwest to appreciate having a bunch of dead stuffed animals in your house.
For fun: take turkey out of glass case, set out in front of someones home propane tank visible from road and wait for a gun toting redneck to drive by and see if he’d try to shot it; but maybe not for $500.
I went and looked because I was pretty sure, and yep… this was someone’s PET! I can tell because the wings have been clipped. You can click on my name link to see a picture of a full turkey without clipped wings. Now that’s just CREEPY!
I think his wings are normal for a jake, which I also think this is. You can’t keep a turkey — even a domesticated one — as a pet. And if you did his wings would be the THIRD thing you’d clip after his beak and spurs. This guy has both. But then, while it’s a real head, there’s no saying that it’s that bird’s ORIGINAL head (or legs). Creepier still.
I was going to say that $500 was an outrageous price, but it’s actually a bargain if you throw in the case: http://www.wildlifeartistry.com/price-birds.htm
i used to think nothing was beyond my imagination. i was wrong. thank you INAD, bird stuffing websites, etc. for keeping me on my toes!
Not as creepy as people having their other pets freeze dried. Imagine a scenario in which two women are having afternoon tea together. “No, Muffins isn’t staring at you. He passed away last week and we had him freeze dried. Isn’t he just adorable?”
Is this from Ted Williams’ estate?
i want this! id put it in my living room. but id only pay like $50 for it… i mean im sure its worth more, but im poor and who REALLY needs a stuffed turkey, especially if you’re only going to use it to laugh at?
oh majestic bird, i hope you found a good home.
There is nothing that getting a little free authentic head can’t make more attractive…
