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?

    Not a “bad” batch, just imperfectly plucked.

    Just pluck the pin feathers yourself. It’s not that big a hassle.
