These are the primary wing feathers from US domesticated turkey and are longer than turkey rounds with pointy end. The feathers are collected as a by-product from meat industry which will otherwise be discarded. The feathers are then cleaned and sanitized for all crafting purpose.
The tip of the feathers is trimmed for a more uniform appearance. The width of the plumes on these feathers is not even as you can see in the picture. One side of the plume is wider which is standard for all primary feathers on birds. The stiffness of the quill makes it a perfect feather for quill pen and they are also perfect for angel wings.
All feathers vary in shapes and sizes and not all of these turkey feathers are perfect as they are pack by weight. You can use these feathers for arts and crafts, fashion accessories, fly tying, home decor, Native American crafts, school projects, Halloween costumes and so much more.
Wholesale and quantity discount of these turkey wing quill feathers are available. They are in stock and ready for immediate shipment.
Please note that dyed feathers may vary slightly in color as a result of being in different dye lots. Although the differences should only be slight, please contact us if you need the colors to match.

Fast service and good quality!
I ordered a quantity of 8 6-packs totaling 48 feathers and they arrived very quickly. I purchased them to make quill pens. The only reason I rated it with 4 stars vice 5 is that unfortunately about 1/3 of the feathers had shafts at the base point of the feathers that were not usable for making quill pens, however it is not a loss as they can still be used for other projects. Overall I still think they are great!

Better than Competitors
I originally bought some large white turkey feathers from Michaels. I had rifled through their selection to pick out the best for my specific project. When I got home and got ready to open the packaging they were in I realized that "the best" had been arranged in the packaging to conceal severely chewed up looking edges. Thus I went searching for a quality product I could use. I found the Moonlight Feather Company online and ordered 6 of these primary quills. Right out of the box the quality of these feathers were worlds away from what you can find in a craft store. I was impressed that you had the option of buying primaries and secondaries. The only complaint I have is that one of them was broken from being stuffed into the box at a weird angle. Seeing as I only needed 4 good ones and the fact that I got a 20% off coupon on my next order, I'll just use that one for tests. Overall, I'd say it was a good experience.
