Where do craft feathers come from?

Asked by occ (4176points) December 31st, 2011 from iPhone

I’m wondering about the kind of cheap feathers you buy in a package at a crafts store. They look real, not synthetic. What kind of birds are they from? And do they kill or hurt the birds to get them? Are there cruelty free feathers?
