Can I use feathers on my product for babies?

I have some SUPER CUTE COZY FEATHER CORDS, and I'm so temped to use them on my pop-ups. If you just touch them, nothing comes off, but if you pull them, the feathers come off. Do you think I can use the feathers in future? Maybe for older kids'? Thanks in advance.

I am positive feathers would be part of the small parts rule. Personally, as a mother to small children, I would never buy anything with feathers for them to play with. For babies? Most definately not.

Sounds like a safety issue. I wouldn't want that for my kids. i spent a large part of my life working with children of all ages and they are very inventive on what they can do. I wouldn't want them around the feathers. I've seen vitamins put in some unusual orafices. This is so not worth the risk to your business or the kids.

Yeah... small parts, fragile,... not to mention that all commercially sold feathers are dipped in chemicals and dyes (even it they look natural).
