Great activity. I showed my son's 4th grade class how to make them. My father taught me.❤

This was so wonderful for me and my daughter to watch! We antique metal nib dip pens and have been wanting to make our own feather quill pens! We came across this video and were so blessed by it! I am now a new subscriber to your channel!! God bless you and keep the beautiful nostalgia ALIVE!

when you clip a birds wing you do not pull any feathers out, you litaraly cut the flight feathers on one side.this upsets the birds flight and they fly in circles so cannot fly away. in britain they used swans feathers to make quills. the male is called a cob the female is called a pen. this is also the origin of the word pen knife which was used to cut the nib.

Definitely true that obtaining flight feathers doesn't have to be cruel, but clipping wings won't get you the whole feather, and it's not very nice.. Just wait for the birds to molt, then they shed the whole feathers naturally. Also, I have never heard of anyone clipping the wings of their geese. Regardless, I appreciate you folx advocating for cruelty-free feathers. 🥰💖💞

Actually it is very easy, must first find a Goose that is left handed. Normally can spot them easy. When flying, they tend to drag slowly to the left, being their left side is stronger than right.
