why are the feathers so stiff and broken?

The package I ordered was all in tact. Maybe try contacting the seller for a replacement?

My kitties de-feathered it pretty quick. Wish I could find a replacement piece.

The feathers are still on the one I bought, however, I don't let my cats catch the "prey" a lot. I'm surprised it has held up as well as it has, though. I bought extra feathers just in case and haven't needed them yet. I think it depends on the play and the cats.

It isn't feathers at all. Its a alternative to feathers. which is some form of stuffing. Just as soft though

Yes, the feathers were fine when we used flat irons and curl irons. We were pleasantly surprised with the quality of this product and have thoroughly enjoyed the colors and product.

The plane is pretty tough. I have had the nose come loose after a crash, and the tail come loose after another crash. A little glue fixed it. I don't think there is a common weak point on this plane that breaks. It just depends on the crash.

Hello, the comforter we have has been washed at least once and no feathers have come out of it. It really is comfortable and keeps us worm.

I think it is a mixture of both. Whatever it is, the feathers have not "poked" through. It's a very comfortable featherbed that easily regains its loft when it's turned over and fluffed up. I've had it for about 1 year.

The feathers and such are held together with a plastic coupling that attaches to the string using a fishing clasp so you can replace it with other other ends. Totally safe.

The mash is probably crushed up. I spoke with a guy on the phone from the Harrison's company. He told me to not get the mash for my canary. He told me that canaries need the "Super-fine pellets". I would give the budgie the super fine pellets. I hope that helps.

I would agree with the others. I did a quick google search and it does sound as though it might have something to do with the layers possibly not fusing together properly. Definitely not normal! I thoroughly enjoy mine, so you may want to give some thought to giving them a second chance and have them replace it. Good luck with whatever you decide! :)

It is pinched. They don't stand up well unless there are a lot standing together against something.

After months of use we have yet to be poked by a feather. These are made with very high quality material that seem to keep any feathers in...although there should be very few feathers mixed in with the down.

I think you are right. Something is wrong. There are no feathers in any of my pillows.

Hi Tysha:You must have a very determined bird like the Cockatoos or Greys. Pak-o-birds are made of fabrics reinforced with HDPE plastics and aluminun parts. Parrots with a strong beak can chew up these materials individually when they are bored. The designs matter a lot and the experience you are willing to give the birds will affect how the birds behave or comfortable the bird feel inside the carrier. Perhaps, you can visit an on-line forum for bird owners of your type of bird to see how other users' experiences are with Pak-o-Bird. Feel free to email or call if you have further questions.

The only think that I can think of is that the feeding bar tension is set too light and when a bid or multiple birds land on the bar it closes off the feeding ports. So you might have to adusst the tension via the notches and the wire lever on the side of thefeeding bar

I bought mine from china. The description was in inches from one posting and cm on another they ended up the same length. With peacock feathers the eyes are what is used. The length comes from trimming down the white parts that actually keep the feathers in the bird. I don't know what your situation is or what you are using them for but in my experience these feathers were missing a lot of eyes!!
