Four deer ready for pickup - I’ve really been trying to perfect my deer mounts and ensure they look realistic as possible. It’s taking me a little longer to get them out but I’d rather them be worth the wait instead of rushed and out the door. One area I’ve really been focusing on is the nose!

Be on the lookout for more mounts to be posted soon!

Happy Sunday!

I’ve had several people reach out about 2026 prices and what I am taking so I thought I’d make a post to make it a little easier.

Listed here are all my prices with the required deposit for each mount. I will considering taking other animals that are not on this list but I am NOT taking in any euro mounts, pets, fish or anything with feathers. I also will not be taking in any roadkill going forward. They have a lot more damage to the fur than you can see, I promise.

If I currently have something of yours I want to thank you for your patience and know I am working on getting everything out as quickly as possible. I am very close to being caught up and with this now being my only job, I hope this will not be an issue going forward!

Also, please know the number you are calling is my cell phone - not a landline/shop phone. I ask that if I do not answer the first time, please leave me a message or send me a quick text and I will respond as quickly as I can. Please do not hang up and immediately call back repeatedly. Your business and mount are important to me but so is eating dinner with my family and reading my six year old his bedtime story 😉

Thank you all SO much for your continued support and I look forward to working with you all this season - Happy hunting friends!

Four more deer ready for pick up 🦌

Taking a break from mounting deer and moving onto bear, bobcats, coyotes, foxes, turkey tails and skulls!

Eight more deer ready to go to their forever home 🦌

02/25/2026

Five more deer ready to go to their forever home! I have four more deer almost ready for finishing work and two that are starting the drying process as they were just mounted today. Hoping to mount three more this week and another three next week 💪🏼

Once I get the three deer mounted next week then I will be switching gears and focusing on all my small game, bears and skulls!

02/20/2026

Mounted three more deer this week, have five deer to finish next week and hopefully will be mounting four more! Only a handful of deer left from the 2024 and then I will be spending all spring mounting all my small game and getting my skulls done that I am behind on. Then hopefully I’ll be able to start on my 2025 mounts this summer 😃

It’s been awhile since I have posted in here so I thought I’d reintroduce myself - my name is Lauren Dixon and I am the owner/operator of Cifax Taxidermy! My husband and I have been married for eight years and we have one cutie little son.

I have been doing taxidermy for over 22 years and I started my own business during COVID. For the last 17 years, I had a Monday - Friday corporate job. I worked from home for about five years due to COVID until the fall of 2025 when they brought us back into the office. Being in the office everyday took a toll on me mentally. I was having a hard time trying to balance being a Mother, wife, employee and business owner at the same time. I felt as though I was failing in all aspects of my life. After several talks with my husband, we decided something needed to change.

Therefore, I quit my corporate job of 17 years last week and I am now a full time taxidermist! I wanted to say thank you to everyone who has brought me work and referred me to their friends and family! If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t be able to do what I love.

For everyone that is waiting on a mount from me, I am steadily working on getting them back to you. I know I am behind and I appreciate your patience more than you know! With that being said - my books are currently CLOSED so that I can focus on getting myself caught up.

I am very excited for this new chapter in life and to see where my little taxidermist business will take me 🤍

I’ve been working hard on getting these mounts done that I’m running out of room on my walls to hang them! I have five deer ready for pick up and five deer drying getting ready to be finished along with two bears and a bobcat!

I am almost caught up on everything prior to the 2024 season - keeping me on track to get my 2024 mounts done before the 2025 season starts!

Thank you all for your patience and for trusting me with your mounts!

Steadily getting these mounts finished and out the door!

11/03/2024

It would appear posting on social media is not my strong suit 😅

I’m steadily getting mounts done and ready for pick as well as steadily getting deer in! Check out my Facebook for an updated price list for the 2024 season.

A few things for this season - I am not taking in any bear, squirrels or coyotes this year. I am also limiting how many deer and other small game I am going to take so that I can ensure everything gets back in a timely manner.

My estimated time for deer mounts are a year and anything else is a year and a half to two years. As a reminder - this is a hobby/side job. I have a normal Mon-Fri job so I’m not always available during the day but if you can’t get me by calling, send me a text or message!

As always, thank you to everyone who has trusted me with their mounts and have been patient with me getting them out. I truly appreciate it!
