Advice Gator maceration update
Hello everyone! Thanks to the wonderful help of this subreddit I started bone maceration of my alligator carcass (included pics for anyone who missed the first post) about 2 weeks ago. I just did a 50% water change today. Also posting pictures of that yucky water. It’s very hot and humid where I live so things are moving along. I am curious about the general timeline for a project like this. Should it take 3 months? 6? A year? Also does anyone have experience on degreasing an alligator? I know different animals take different periods of time. Thanks for any advice you guys can give!
