Clean Bones
The safest and easiest to clean bones is macerazione.Rimuovere any remaining skin and meat, place the bones in a container and cover completely with water. Replace the water every few days with fresh water. You can pour water in your garden smelling like a compost tea for your tasty plants. When the water becomes turbid and smelly it becomes ready for the next step. Rinse the bones again with plain water and pull out all remaining tissue.
Then dip the bones into a container filled with hydrogen peroxide. This sterilizing and whitening bones. It may take a few minutes or a couple of hours depending on the size of the bones and the strength of hydrogen peroxide.
Then remove the bones and give them a final rinse with water and allow to dry. They are now ready to cooperate with you. Never use bleach.
Sometimes the bones could break down too fast and getting so that bones do not shed most of odoraccio, often to the cuase of the interior of the bone itself.
Here is an extract from the instructions - The Hall of Bones: when preparing individual skulls and bones, with maceration.

During the preparation of individual skulls and bones with maceration
Before you begin: These instructions are provided as a service to clients who wish to prepare their own bone samples.
Before proceeding, please be aware that many localities have laws on the protection of native species. These laws prohibit the possession of the remains as well as for the live animal.
Please check your local laws before proceeding.
What is soaking? Use the action of bacteria in water to clean the bones is called maceration. The easiest way to clean the bones and works best for large bones strong, for example mammalian skulls and long bones. It is not recommended for very delicate bones, like those found in birds or reptiles, or skeletons that you want to keep together (joint) all the bones are separated, the maceration removes the connective tissue that holds together the skeleton.
Step 1: remove all residual tissue or hide the best of your ability. In this way you maceration faster.
Step 2: Completely submerge the bones in a container of plain water.
Step 3: Leave the container in a warm place where you can smell.
Step 4: periodically pour the fat, smelly water out (gardens love quet 'water) and acmbiate with fresh water.
Step 5: When the water remains clear, the bacteria break down any finished fabric remains.
Step 6: If you want to bleach or sterilize the bones, transfer to a container Remove them with hydrogen peroxide, when they reached the shade of white you want.
NEVER use bleach. Chlorine-based bleaching damage the bones. Chlorine
remains behind and continues to erode the bone, it is ultimately reduced to white powder.
Hydrogen peroxide is a safer alternative.

Six Would it bother you squeamish and the smell of blood to soak? Do not worry, there are two other methods that are possible to use to avoid this part. The first is to bury the animal.
bury it so deep enough so that scavengers do not smell and evaita to slip the precious bones.
Depending on the size of the animal, the skull or bones that were buried, it will take three months to one year because all the skin and tissues will decompose and remains the only bone (s)
To make it easier to dig and find an entire skeleton of an animal they bury him in a burlap sack. The bag must be a natural material, rough and textured so that bacteria and not only enter and rot.
Once you've dug your bones, wash them with water and follow the same instructions above using hydrogen peroxide.
The second alternative is the display. Some people have succeeded in leaving the dead animals found on the roof of a warm and sunny home to rot. This is an efficient method if you do not mind the smell you should close it in a dark container, closing the top to get the retention of heat, but not the damage from the sun. Again, the length of time needed depends on the size of the animal or bone.
Please do not throw a deer on the roof! I only recommend this method for parts of an animal larger or smaller, mean creatures like birds and squirrels. If you use the method of exposure should live on a farm or in a more rural area. The neighbors tend to disapprove of decomposing animals next door.

L ' Redness of the bones is a practice found among countries, cultures, religions of the past. Was conducted mainly by people who practice ancestor worship, animal bones but can also be flushed. The process is literally known as "red blood". This is to imitate blood, life force, and the tissue that has left the bones and bring them to life. Redden for human or animal bones, using red ocher mixed with red wine to form a paste and let stand in a jar or covered container for a day or two. If you can not get their hands on red ocher pigment can be replaced with the old red brick dust, old bricks containing ocher. Apply the mixture to clean the bones with your hands and cover the whole bone of the skull with pasta.
leave for another day (half day at least). You can wrap plastic to keep the dough wet or spray from time to time, and then with water or red wine to keep it moist. Keep it moist allows the color to penetrate into the bone, just like the henna in the skin. Then remove the dough and let all the particles that remain dry. When the skull is completely dry, brush off any remaining particles of red ocher.
not wash the bones, but a gentle polishing with a soft cloth is a good thing. Keep the new blush bones on your altar, or in a beautiful box or pouch.
