Small wing and/or tail feathers for crafts with a black and brown design. The partridge coloring loosely resembles a chevron pattern. The main feather body is a dark brownish black with eye catching brown markings. For those of us who don't eat a lot of eggs, the Partridge Cochin is still a great bird to keep. They are calm and friendly chickens who do a great job free ranging, scratching, and keeping the bug population down.
- Qty: Approx. 24 assorted Partridge Cochin hen feathers
- Size: Approx. 1.5" inches / 3.81 centimeters

Cochin chickens are on the Livestock Conservation Priority List (see resources). When you purchase feathers from my farm you directly help me in my efforts to keep these birds.
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: S
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 silver quarter (25¢) is pictured with the ruler to further assist with scale. I have also provided photos of feathers in my hand for those who prefer not to use standard measurements.
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.
