At a Bergdorf fashion show for Mr. Scherrer in 1965, the store featured gray and plum wool dresses that were shown with coats, hats and boots covered with guinea hen feathers.
Biosorption potential of hen feathers (HFs) to remove methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solutions was investigated.
Hen feathers used in this study were collected from a local poultry in Durgapur, West Bengal, India.

However, to the best of our knowledge, no study has been reported on the removal of MB using hen feathers.
In this paper, we report the biosorption characteristics of hen feathers (HFs)—a waste biomaterial for the removal of MB from aqueous solution.
When I walked into her studio she was sitting at her desk, which was cluttered with sandpaper scraps, rabbit paws, and guinea hen feathers.
Due to the unique characteristic hen feathering, molecular biologists have found the Sebright bantam a useful model organism in the study of sex hormones.
Characteristically, Sebrights are only one of a few chicken breeds in which the roosters are hen feathered, meaning they have none of the long, sickle shaped feathers common in most roosters that appear in the tail, neck and saddle.
Some breeders consider hen feathering to have an adverse effect on the fertility of male Sebrights, and may use roosters that don't carry the trait for breeding purposes, despite their automatic disqualification in shows.
