Down comforters contain a variety of fillings. Unless labelled 100% goose down, contents probably include both goose and duck feathers. Anyone who has taken children to feed the ducks in winter knows how well down works--that layer of soft small underfeathers works just like magic to keep out the cold.
The popularity of down comforters, pillows and coats has pressed manufacturers to find all possible sources of down feathers, and this creates one caution for consumers. Extending down with small chopped feathers creates the same warm insulating qualities as pure down, but can sometimes result in little prickles from the stems of larger feathers. Shop with both your eyes and your hands when you find deep-discount down items. No prickles? Wonderful! Enjoy your warm cozy down purchase!
