Ulimarao posted a uTube video on this subject, I`m just wondering if any of you remember it, and the horror of supporting any FEATHER DUVETS from HUNGARY?

The geese are alive .. they have ALL their feathers pulled out ... repeatedly ..... and are left dazed and in obvious pain.

Imagine having your own hair pulled out, and when it begins to re-grow to have it pulled out again ... and again ... and again ......

Well, that is what happens to the geese in Hungary .... until they die.

So .. PLEASE ...... check the labels on any feather duvet you intend buying, and if it comes from HUNGARY DO NOT support this cruel industry!

thumbs up Thanks Lillym.

I don`t know why people feel the need to use animal products anymore ......... now we have wonderful Allergy Free Synthetic products ... that keep everyone warm, without causing any pain to other living creatures.

Oh, also .... remember this ...... If your climate is cold enough to have to use THICK duvets, AND you have internal heating in your home ....... Feathers dry out and cause a fine dust that can give you lots of allergic reactions ... including excema to the skin, rashes in nose, ears, eyes ...... and asthma.

Ja! Me too!

And the nice thing with a synthetic duvet is that it can be washed in a normal washing machine.

Feather duvet laundering costs more than the original duvet! ... and if you don`t launder it ... or hang it out in below freezing weather, DUST MITES breed in it.

Google Dust Mites and SEE what they look like! eeeyyaaahhhhgggg!!!

I did that ... and my grand-daughter shoved ALL her fluffy toys in the deep-freeze for a week!grin

That's one of the most disturbing acts of cruelty to any creature. Unfortunately, we often see 'made from local and imported ingredients', in which case this way of labelling lefts countries like Hungary off the hook.

It wouldn't be like having individual hair pulled out. It would be way more excruciating than that for the poor geese. I think that pulling the CEO's teeth out, one by one, without anesthetic would be a good start!
