Ultra thin coachman brown Rhode Island Red hen wing feathers for crafts. These are small, mostly flat shaped plumes with a little fluff at their base. These types of wing feathers are what I think of as butterflies wings - from a chicken. Natural wing plumage for a wide assortment of handmade goods. Including but not limited to hair accessories, stationary and invitations, jewelry, feather garland and pet toys. Feathers are loose, ranging in size from one and a half to two and a half inches. They have been carefully hand packaged in bulk lots of fifty five.
- Qty: Approx. 55 assorted Rhode Island Red hen feathers
- Size: Approx. 1.5-2.5" inches / 3.81-6.35 centimeters

Rhode Island Red chickens are on the Livestock Conservation watch list (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 photos of these 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.
