    It works great but don’t use but a couple drops in the wash with it .. too much and it’s hard to get it out of the feathers and takes a lot of rinses … I use Gain laundry detergent with Dawn on divers .. mostly for the scent gets rid of that diver duck smell or at least it’s not as strong … cus they stink no matter how good they’ve been fleshed ..I think the Gain makes it fluffier than without ..

    Seen the posts about injecting feet 50/50 formaldehyde and glycerin. Will this be okay on freezer burnt feet? Or do you guys do them differently.

    If they're freezer burned, detach them and put them in a Ziploc with Windex. Set in the fridge for a couple days. They'll be just like new. Then yes you can inject with F&G or anything else.
