This is what our King Tut looked like after only 21 days of dehydration. It was time to change out the salt mixture to make sure he gets completely dried out. Amazingly, he did not smell bad. I could only smell the spice mixture we added. When I took him out of the old mixture, he had salt caked onto him that I had to scrape off. The salt was slightly moist. Once he's completely dried out, we will wrap him in bandages that are soaked in glue to dress him as a proper mummy. Then place him in the box we painted to look like a tomb.
