Dark Ramblings

Fight the light to save your life, Howl to the moon that's dying tonight.

Hide in the darkness that is your heart.

Little drop of blood, fall silently to the floor. You don't belong here anymore.

Tell me sweetly, tell me lies, will you be no friend of mine?

I am life, I am death. Sweet and rancid, crystal and rock. Sun and moon, Fire and rain. The burning blood, the wolf and the moon.

As I look around the sky I see, Forever the ghost is haunting me.

Quietly, quietly, step so lightly. On your way to the stairway to the moon. Follow the radience up the clouds, finally away from all the crowds. Hand in hand to paw in paw, follow the stairw

Mutation Fox Tailby ~NightsGem

Artisan Crafts / Leatherwork / Taxidermy

I interviewed a nice woman yesterday at the local flea market. She and her husband have been selling furs, leather, bones, crafts, native american goods, etc. for 15 years. After the interview, I commented on how I knew most tails that were there, except this one. She said it was a mutation, and then said "It's yours." After me stupidly saying "Really? Seriously? Mine" for several seconds, it sunk in that she really was giving me a beautiful fox tail for free.

Now, what in the world kind of mutation is this? It's an off-white cream color with darker spirals since the tail is twisted. Maybe an arctic mutation of some sort, right? At 16.5 inches long, it's nice.

To see a beautiful picture of it, I put one in my scraps. It's just a showy picture. [link]

it is the same as mine so a artic marble for
mine is spireled but natuaraly as mine doesnt have dark rings like that mine has light rings that dont spiral like that and the redish brown fur is lightly spread across the tail mine is incredibally long

Oh It's no marble. The dark fur is on the underside of the tail. The top is perfectly white. I have a brown marble and a blue marble. They're nothing like this. I'm guessing it's a mutation fox whose fur aged a bit.

I just bought a marble identical to this, it is a marble

~NightsGem Feb 17, 2013 Hobbyist Artisan Crafter

I'm sorry, but I have to disagree. Marbles have no coloring on the bottom on the tail, and scattered coloring on the top. This tail has coloring only on the bottom, and no coloring on top.

mine is marble looks the same the rings on mine are lighter and natural
yours has been twisted maing the colour go all the way down -_-

[link] It's not a marble. :/ I untwisted it. Trust me, I know my foxes, and this is no fox I know. It's just a mutation. Not a marble, arctic, or golden island. It was just a rancher having fun with their foxes.

Do you think the rings are natural, or has it been twisted? O.o Either way, that truely is gorgeous

~NightsGem Dec 3, 2012 Hobbyist Artisan Crafter

It's been twisted, but it'd be lovely if they were natural! xD
