I had bought about 5 lbs of free range foster farms chicken thighs and every thigh was covered in feather quills. It was in 4 different packages so I’m not really convinced it was a one off.

I usually buy a different brand and have never had this problem before.

Do you guys usually spend the time to pluck the feathers yourself or just bin it?

    You could have frozen them until you do have time to either a) fool with it yourself or b) find someone to give them to. I get wanting to be mindful of how our time is used, but binning them is wasteful of money, of resources, and of those lives.
