Our country is a major poultry farming nation with abundant feather resources. In poultry production, feathers have caused pollution to the surrounding environment. The emergence of the feather industry has avoided the pollution and waste of feathers in poultry production, and feathers have been fully utilized, increasing economic income.
 
Feather jewelry processing is simple and easy to learn, with convenient materials. It can be made from various chicken, duck, goose feathers, even the feathers of animals such as ostrich. These can be made into feather fluff, feather masks, feather cartoon pens, feather crowns, feather decorations, feather headdresses, etc. These crafts are carefully made.
 
We usually classify feathers into primary feathers, down feathers, and filamentous feathers. Down feathers and filamentous feathers are usually used as filling materials for pillow and quilt cores. Primary feathers are divided into large feathers and secondary feathers. Large feathers are usually used for decoration, masks, and headdresses; soft secondary feathers are used for feather fluff strips and hanging decorations.
 
Treatment of Feather Raw Materials
 
Wash - Pour the feathers into the washing machine, try to avoid feathers flying around. Pour water into the washing machine, press the feathers while watering to ensure they are fully immersed in the water. Twist the feathers to clean them, disinfect, bleach, and soak them thoroughly.
 
Dyeing Pour the washed feathers into the dyeing vat, stir well in the water to prevent them from clumping. Add the dye granules according to the dyeing instructions, and stir vigorously with a wooden stick in the vat. The water temperature should be maintained at 60-80°C, and the dyeing time should not exceed 12 hours to avoid damaging the feather texture. In this process, weak acidic and neutral dyes are usually preferred for feather dyeing. The pH value should be around 4.5. The temperature should be between 60-80°C. The dyeing conditions should be based on not damaging the feather texture.
