bottom, the rest of the feather being smooth with the width at 1½ to 2"
tip which is rounded. The feathers have a nice curve to them but not as much as the
coquille. Parried Nageories are created by sanding the underside of the quill untill the feather is very soft and flexible. See terms (Home Page) for Custom Colors. Parried means each feather quill is sanded for a more flexible feather.

| Goose
Pointers Pointers are wing feathers also known as flight or
spike feathers. They are the first two or three long feathers at the tip of the wing. The
left wing feather flue is about 1" to 1½" on the left side of the quill and
about ½" on the right side of the quill. The right wing feather is the
opposite, with the wide portion of the flue on the right side. The amount of feathers in a
pound will vary depending on the size of the quill. With very large birds, it may differ
greatly from the amount listed below. Each shipment is subject to change and we have no
control on the size of the quills. (Picure on left is goose schrager, center picture is
