I am sorry if my post sounded like I was greedy and took all the feathers that were being sold that was not the case. I only needed a couple of sets and then I took one more because I knew a neighbor was looking for stinky feathers. I left most of the feathers in the sellers shop for other players to also benefit from their hard work. I sold the extra feathers to the neighbor and have continued to collect from the chickens. I have no idea why there isn't more feathers showing up in the newspaper. Possibly everyone who finished is sick and tired of way too many eggs in the barn and/or throwing them away so the eggs don't tie up shop space. It feels like I throw away a 1000 eggs. I know it wasn't that many but it was a lot.
