That’s funny. I was thinking the opposite.
For a new character to get to arrow making, there’s not enough feathers from start, one has to stick around an area to eventually find some feathers.
And I would really like an option to get feathers by trade too, otherwise any fletcher pretty much needs to be also a bird trapper. Maybe trade feathers from the kids, with all that running around the villages and neighboring woods.
You might need to spread your homestead out some more. The hoarder prompt comes after 1k stacks if memory serves. 10 feather stacks is just 1% of the items.
