Do you know where your turkey feathers come from? When you buy from Running Bug Farm you do! My Blue Slate Turkeys are humanely raised. They live outside 365 days a year free ranging on pasture the way Mother Nature intended. I use natural holistic methods to treat my animals and my family. Running Bug Farm is better than organic. Your purchase supports my small Eco-farm and I thank you!
I clean my birds feathers using filtered well water, Eco friendly soap, vinegar, and dry heat sterilization.
Feathers are hand packaged and labeled. Labels provide my farms basic information, the type of bird, the quantity, and the size of the feathers.
Feathers are from my Eco-farm; raised, cared for, & loved by my family. I am not feather reseller.
Feathers are from my smoking free home, although I do heat my home exclusively with a wood stove as I am almost entirely off of the grid and this is my only source of heat.
I do not sell feathers from endangered or protected species of birds. Such as Eagle, Hawk, Owl, Falcon, Song Bird, Parrot, etc. I exclusively sell feathers only from my own humanely raised farm birds on my small Eco-Farm.
Size: XXL
Size Examples:
I have provided photos of these feathers with a United States Standard ruler which is twelve inches long (12"). A standard United States copper penny (1¢) is pictured with the ruler to further assist with scale.
If you are unsure of the size of feathers that you need, I strongly recommend getting a ruler, tape measure, dress makers tape, etc. and looking at the size/s you need in inches (rather than using the eyeball it in the hand method). First measure where you want to use the feathers and what your expectations are. When you see the approximate length, write it down and compare that length in inches to the feathers I have listed to help you find the size that's perfect for your needs.
