Send in your feathers for cash or store credit
When you send in your feathers you can opt to receive a payment or a store credit. The store credit can be applied to purchase individual feathers from a wide selection of processed fletching.
Use your store credit
By using your store credit, you can trade all of your primary feathers or secondary feathers for ground, chopped and dyed fletching. By pulling from our stock you no longer will have to wait 10+ weeks for your feathers to be complete. Store credit can be used for anything from the Catalog of products.
What if I want the feathers from MY turkey returned?
Rest assured, you can still receive feathers back for that sentimental value. Feather grinding is $0.50 each or 1 for 1 trade (if you only want one wing) PLUS $10 per package. If you would like them chopped to shape the cost is $0.20 per chop.
How does this trade in system work?
1) Gather up all of the feathers you would like processed either still on the wing or cut off of the wing, and loosely pack them in a shipping box. If feathers are still on the wing all meat must be removed and the base of the wing covered in borax, to dry. When cutting feathers off the of the wing, use side cutters, cable cutters, or my favorite, 3 in 1 multi cutters to cut the quill at the base of each feather. Left wing, Right wing, primary and secondary feathers are all accepted. All feathers will be inspected for quality once received. Damaged or soiled feathers will not be counted. PLEASE NOTE: THE PURCHASE AND SALE OF CURED WILD TURKEY FEATHERS IS NOT LEGAL IN ALL STATES. PLEASE CHECK YOUR STATES’ LAWS PRIOR TO SELLING WILD TURKEY FEATHERS.
