Black Spanish Turkey Teeny Bits — incredibly small, black miniature feathers from my rare heritage Black Spanish turkeys.
Details:
- Quantity: Approx. 30 tiny feathers
- Size: Under 1 inch (< 2.54 cm)
- Color: Black and grey with natural iridescence
These teeny feathers are excellent for fine detailed work such as embroidery, cross-stitch accents, miniature crafts, jewelry, tiny dream catchers, and more.
Hand-collected during natural molting from my free-ranging, pasture-raised heritage turkeys (Livestock Conservancy Watch List). Cleaned with well water, natural soap, vinegar, and heat sterilized on my small regenerative farm in West Virginia.
The short video clip below is of one of my Black Spanish turkeys foraging at dusk in September during a moderate drought.
Black Spanish Turkeys are on The Livestock Conservancy Watch list (resources) with fewer than 5,000 breeding birds in the United States, with 10 or fewer primary breeding flocks, and an estimated global population less than 10,000.
Do you know where your turkey feathers come from? When you buy from Running Bug Farm you do! My 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 soap, vinegar and heat sterilization.
Feathers are hand packaged and labeled with my farms information, the type of bird, the quantity and the size.
I am not a feather reseller. I exclusively sell feathers only from my own humanely raised birds on my small Eco farm.
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.
Size: XXS
Size Examples:
I have provided stock photos of 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.
