Looking for some weird Christmas baubles?

A SELF-PROCLAIMED "bad taxidermist" has shared his shocking Christmas decorations - including dead chick baubles.

Jack Devaney, who lives in Plymouth, often hits the headlines due to his bizarre taxidermy creations, including a rabbit toaster, chicken magnets and duckling skin mirrors.

He began what is now a full-time career six years ago after skinning and stuffing a mouse in his mum's back garden to impress his girlfriend. Since then, he's sold hundreds of the designs and last year he found his most popular to date - "faunaments" for Christmas made from the skin of frozen rodents.
