If I remember correctly there used to be a market for them. Is there still and where do you sell quills at?

Certain sizes are desired by quillworkers. Typically long ones, but not the long and super thin ones.

There is also a market for good guard hair, the longer the better.

On the guard hair it should have very little or no under fur mixed in the bundle .


You're friend along the snare line .
