Thanks so much!!

All are bantam and the eggs from the black/blue are gone. Mrs. Fluffy Puffy got what I had and the birds are going to a new home on monday. I may have a few more what is laid today and tomorrow before shipping.

any specific color, and are fluffy ones ok?
NO specific color just colorful. I've got black, buff, brown mottled, just neat colored like penciled, laced, speckled etc. Can't be fluffy like the "underfluff" I cut that off before glueing

What quantity of feathers are you looking for?

 

[CapricornFarm]

That Aspen is on over drive about hatching eggs! :-D My Dark Brahmas are moulting and maybe some laced polish feathers. I will start collecting.

 

[buffbeauty]

I don't need bags and bags for sure. Sounds like I'm going to have more than my fair share coming!!! HA. Variety is what I need. Got some GORGEOUS peacock breast feathers coming. Probably couldn't ever have enough of those!!

 

[mrheinz77]

How should the feathers be washed/cleaned?

 

[dmccann]

A friend of mine is also looking for pretty feathers for crafts and people hair feathers,any one with any extra i am interested thx

 

[buffbeauty]

Doesn't matter, just soap and water and let dry on towel. dmccann - I have some sicle feathers and longer wing feathers from buff orps and favs that I can send. I had collected them for someone else who was wanting them for hair feathers etc but then didn't take them.

Nothing really specific. Just something I really need or want. Sorry I just don't know.... I've got some good feathers coming and some duck eggs. I'm sure I could use more of both. Really colorful small feathers from chest, back or wing/tail coverts. And really large duck eggs or goose eggs. All will be blown out for ornaments so infertiles are great..... You would believe the trouble I've gone throught to save all the chicken eggs I've blown out because I hated to waste them. Blow out into mason jar, then seive to make sure there wasnt any shell remnants in them...... sheesh!!

What's your rooster's name? I'd have to call him "Abe"

Gorgeous birds!
