    is anyone on here able to offer advice on removing the horns to clean the membrane off the horn core ? if you look at the horn on the right in the last photo you can see it's quiet damaged from fighting to the point that some of the horn core may be exposed.
    I'm just worried that if I try to remove them to clean the membrane off I will risk damaging the outer horn.
    catch 22 as if I don't remove them and clean the membrane off it will rot and stink and I will never be allowed to hang another head inside the house again.
    Any advice or help please ???? I'll try get some better pics when I'm home showing the extent of the damage.
    I don't want to repair the damage as I like it and think it adds to the character I just don't want to damage it further or risk ruining it all together.\
    thanks everyone
