quill picks


i was wondering if anyone was interested in quill picks from various birds. i have acquired falcon and eagle feathers from some of the birdkeepers around here... they are ordinarily so precious that if a falcon loses or breaks his feather, its glued back on but i got them for free!! :D

there are a few of these left and im giving them away so just tell me who wants one!! (mike, spyros, and basel im saving you guys some already!)

Wow, that's quite a treasure you have there. My only question is... is falcon quills legal in America? I know eagle quills have been outlawed here. If anyone knows any loopholes, lemme know. :D

o man! TP! almost forgot about you! you havent been on for so long! i'll save a quill for you too...

well, i know that eagle feathers are illegal in the US but i think that falcon feathers are not illegal because falcons in the states are so rare to find as opposed to the top knotch ones imported from siberia over here! :D

anyways, all i hope is that they dont keep them at customs!!! :xtreme:

spyros, thank you so much for all that you have done for me. i'll look for horns over here for you, but so far i havent been very sucessful. i can get a hold of goat horns EASILY but i think that you would be able to as well. ;)

but what i can get are camel bones.... but even those are rare... let me know if i can help you out in any way. :bounce:

Oh wow, nadir. I was just asking. I didn't mean to impose myself for a risha. I certainly don't want to make it a difficult task for you. I thank you for thinking of me, nadir, but it's such a precious thing to have (the quills, that is). I certainly don't want you to feel robbed of them.

Horn rishas


Nadir, If you are looking for horn Rishas try the Nile shop on ebay. Email yehia He has sent me some that were pretty good quality.


P.S. The only loop holes that I know for having eagle feathers in the us is to be Native American or to not show them off.


Good luck
and Blessings to the oud and those who love it

No problem... but the quills that I sent out are pretty small... I don't think that they need too much adjusment, if any! :D
