Pm'd you jack, were I got it is not a sponsor here. Mine were $15.44 shipped for the two colors.

DanielB89, bough the natural turkey feathers from Magnus at turkey flite traditional a sponsor here in sponsors classifieds,   http://tradgang.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=162;t=000042  
will pm you link to vendor Daniel.

Well worth it for the looks are very good and better visibility to the fletch, very easy to do, took all of 20 minutes including cleanup. Stored the liquid in glass jars for next time. Should have enough dye for more feathers than I will ever use.

I am wanting to try to process my own feathers due to the cost of feathers.  I find it unreal that it cost $20 for enough feathers for a dozen arrows.
Oftentimes, I use natural barred feathers or a combination of natural barred and dyed natural barred for all three/four 5 1/4" fletches.  $20.00 would be cheap.
