Rumba Rue Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 If anyone out there has a parrot like a Macaw or similar with colorful feathers, I am in need of them if you tend to save them when the bird molts. Even the small colorful feathers I use. Grey and reds from African Greys are needed too. Sorry don't need any cockatiel or parakeet feathers. I will gladly make you a free feather hat pin in exchange for them. PM me if you can take advantage of this offer. Sorry, no ostrich feathers - I don't use them. (I still owe Stynky a hat pin and I promise he'll get it as soon as I get more feathers to work with)
Raphael Misson Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 (I still owe Stynky a hat pin and I promise he'll get it as soon as I get more feathers to work with) First Stynky has to get a hat... You wouldn't have any blue or black/grey feathers, would you? I lost the blue and black/grey feathers in my Planter's hat and I have no clue where to get natural feathers. “We either make ourselves miserable or we make ourselves strong.

Red-Handed Jill Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 Rumba - I may have a source, but I won't know until around mid-August.
Rumba Rue Posted July 18, 2009 Author Posted July 18, 2009 You wouldn't have any blue or black/grey feathers, would you? I lost the blue and black/grey feathers in my Planter's hat and I have no clue where to get natural feathers. I have some medium length deep blue Macaw wing feathers that are at least 12 inches long or longer, some have either red or yellow on the backside. Also have some gorgeous turquoise Macaw wing feathers that are about 8 to 10 inches long. Sorry I don't sell just the feathers as most of last year I had to actually buy them from a guy who does a bird show here at the local faires, and they weren't cheap.
Commodore Swab Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 Ill see what I can come up with here, no promises though.
MadL Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 I found mine on Ebay, ye really must look HARD and daily however to find any NOT sold for crazy price! I got a lot of around 10 for $10, four I kept, a few I sold t' Oderlesseye 'n he's lovely wife. There be a couple left but they are not that good and they are small - all from a macaw. Now ye know th' African Grey feathers are gonna be a bit difficult as they (red tail feathers) are said by some Indians t' posses special powers and therefore are highly sought after. I would like t' find some other, non-parrot species, bird feathers; such as magpie ones (the Long black ones with a white tip) or some Birds of Paradise tail feathers 'n such....NO PEACOCKS! They be possessing EVIL LUCK!!! 'n no pheasant feathers fer they get ye locked up as a poacher!! And no swallow feathers as it be awfully bad luck t' kill one o' them!! However I do have a crow's feather and a gull's feather in me own hat but both where given freely t' me by their owners. ~All skill be in vain if an angel pisses down th' barrel o' yer flintlock! So keep yer cutlass sharp, 'n keep her close!
