Re: how do you treat wild feathers?

Dont know if its to late for response but, with my pheasant skins i got this year hunting a freind told me to nuke them in microwave for 2-3 mins
this i did and them turned out fine, In past i would douse with salt keep in bag for week then hang dry by my woodstove, The microwave seemed to work faster and same result.
here is a site about it
