Looks good tophet. One thing though to consider, bleach, even diluted, can be harmful to bone. I've seen some done that the bone became brittle and flaky. Taxidermy supply companys sell hydrogen peroxide (30%) and magnesium carbonate that you form a paste with to whiten the bone. Also I've just used Dawn dishwashing soap. I put some in the initial boil to clean the skull and after it's done then put clean water in the pot, bring it up almost to boil and put the skull in for a bit. It doesn't give as stark a white color, more of a natural bone color but works well too. On a more greasy type skull like bear I've had to repeat the process a couple times (changing the water each time) but it works out nicely.
