What are your views on selling naturally molted feathers on eBay?

Sold two years worth..all except the tail feathers,for $70...Ivan got a new toy..I got a bottle of Scotch...worked for us..Bill

As long as it's legal where you live? Why not? I have some saved from my birds, but they aren't interesting enough to sell...but I've used them make crafts and stuff.

I actually collect Avery's shed feathers and plan to make jewellery out of them. I know a lot of people who do that and actually sell the jewellery they make, too. So long as everything came out naturally, I don't see the issue.

Is there any demand for wing feathers?

 

[PetoftheDay]

I am sure there is - good clear pictures and go for it!

You won't make a lot off them, but you can certainly try. So long as they are naturally molted, theres nothing unethical or "wrong" about it.

naturally molted ones go for it! ive seen long tail feathers or several smaller feathers going for a tenner on ebay. im sure your bird would love the new toy it buys more than the old feathers they no longer want lol

plus i feel that if there are people selling naturally molted ones, the humanity within them will draw them to yours, making illegally obtained or painfully plucked feathers redundant

gather them feathers and sell sell sell!
