Ordered a full ruffed grouse skin recently that arrived about a week ago but hadn't taken a close look at it until today and I pulled a few feathers out to tie with. I expect a few damaged feathers on a skin but I'm seeing there are a lot with broken barbs (see pic for a couple of examples). Opinions on if this is insect damage or something else? Regardless of the cause I'm requesting a refund or replacement from the seller.
