Heartbroken, gutted and angry with myself
Strelets:
Thanks for the warning JW. I recently acquired 60 primary peacock feathers. Having read your post, I ordered some mothballs straight away.
DC:
I love Peacock fletching. Such a great colour.
Strelets:
And they make good durable fletchings. They were the favourite for top-quality arrows in medieval England. Peacock feathers would have been more easily obtainable then. Nowadays peafowl are only kept for show, but in they used to rear them for meat until turkeys arrived in England in the 16th century. Even in Victorian times peacock was preferred over turkey for the best arrows.
JW_Halverson:
They have a nice color, too.
Rākau:
Glad I read this, I have a bunch of split Canada goose primaries and whole Black swan primaries in the garage. I better do something to stop the bugs!
