Getting Feathers Ready For Fletching?

[Curtis Roberts]

I have some turkey feathers and will be getting some goose feathers I want to use for fletching.  Is there anything I have to do to them before cutting, grinding and gluing them?  Thanks for the help.

Freeze them for a week to kill the little critters on them.  Bill
