We no longer ship internationally for feathers or eggs, and we’re fresh out of eggs, but we’ve got the same high-quality feathers and are adding more kinds all the time.

Shipping is one flat rate of $8 regardless of how many feather bags are in the order and will show up automatically in the shopping cart. Orders will ship using USPS Priority Mail and go out within 3 days of completed payment.

The dark or light fluff items are great for texture and volume in feather projects. Each bag is a variety of short and long fluffy feathers. The Turkey Body feathers are full of personality and vary between pure puffy fluff and some tipped with brown or bronze barring. The cuckoo Maran body feathers are also light and floaty, and delicately barred. Mixed medium or small bags are a sampling of many of our feathers, some no longer available in separate bags.

The chicken book is still selling!  Still resonating with families all over… Learn More about this education course at:  goo.gl/47Hltw

To successfully self publish a book, an author has to find ways of marketing a self-published book online. Social media marketing seemed like the most accessible and effective book marketing for self-published authors, so social media marketing education came to the top of my To Do list in 2015.

Social media – and much of social media marketing – is free; like a puppy is free. I heard that phrase from someone else and immediately adopted it. It was so cute. But as soon as I got home with my social media, I realized that I was going to need some resources and advice. I needed to join a club or a group who knew what I needed to know.

A different kind of flying – no feathers required… my new Aviation Biography is now available on Amazon.com

Posted on by
Now Available on Amazon.com!

Now Available on Amazon.com!

“When No One Else Would Fly” is the aviation history biography of my grandfather, Col. C. J. Tippett and is now available on Amazon.com.

Tip’s passion for flight began the first time he saw a barnstormer in the sky over his hometown of Port Clinton, Ohio.

He wrote a memoir of his amazing civil and military aviation life, and I turned it into a book. My first book was about how I came to have so many feathers… and this is my second book!

Check it out on Amazon.com!

“….. Col. C. J. Tippett was an extraordinary aviation pioneer who took himself from working class origins to one of the highest leadership positions in international civil aviation. Between 1929 and 1961, he logged over 10,000 hours of flight time and piloted more than ninety-eight different types of aircraft. In an untiring pursuit for access to aircraft, and in his commitment to civilian flight safety, Tip climbed into the cockpit when no one else would fly. Tip trained some of the earliest Flying Tigers, certified the first class of Alabama students who would become the Tuskegee Airmen, and shared a boarding house with Major Tooey Spaatz and Major Ira Eaker as they made plans for war. He made record-setting solo flights over the Amazon Jungle in 1943 and fished for black marlin with Ernest Hemingway in Cabo Blanco, Peru in 1956. When sixteen-year-old Tip saw his first airplane in an Ohio field in 1929, he knew that he must learn to fly. He didn’t know that he would become the first Director of the South American Office of the International Civil Aviation Organization. Or that he would live in an elite world of political leaders, millionaires, socialites, and celebrities. When Tip finished his memoir, he encouraged his granddaughter, Corinne Tippett, to turn it into a book. Because by the end of his life, he knew that he’d made history…. “
