Yeah this place is in the UK avigenics I sent them off in them little plastic zip bags the ones that you see all over the floor when out walking the dogs with little bits of white powder in. Urmmm a wonder what that could be lol. Anyway back to birds I put it in the little bags chest feathers same as you. But to be fair a looked at the quill an how they chest from that will amaze me. It's nothing like a tail feather or prime feathers. Will see what happens tho. Bit gutted that I had to pull them out of the bird. A was like ffs these birds better not end up toes up lol.
