Another dumb question.
I recently saw a quail decoration with feathers in a gift shop in Kennebunk. It is made in China.
It would be illegal in the US, as the feathers look real and varied, wouldn't it?
What is the story behind using real bird feathers in China and how do they get them. They could be dyed, but what birds?
Online it says something about synthetic feathers.
I actually bought one for my sister's birthday, since she collects "quails", our maiden name being "Partridge".
I'm thinking of taking it back; just don't like the idea.
Thanks for any help... off line probably.
