Title: Dying feathers.

Has anyone used alcohol based leather dye for feathers?
I have a bag full of turkey feathers that I want to start grinding for fletching, and I thought about using leather dye for the colors.

I used orange koolaid, they were the most beautiful til I shot a buck one evening. I can't see the arrow against deer hide, so didn't know I hit him til I found blood.

No more orange here...

Sorry to not answer the question!
