Allan and Joe offer you a very warm welcome to Feathers
Allan, the tall one on the left with the silver wig and false teeth, who is holding his large tummy in just for the photograph, has been into birds since he was a young man.
His knowledge and ability to talk to the point of considering suicide is now established throughout the English speaking world.
Joe, on the other hand, is nothing less than a young gentleman. Very knowledgeable, extremely polite, slightly short but sickly efficient. This combination enables them to recommend and supply all you will need to attract a vast number of birds into your garden.
A visit to Feathers is like meeting friends, to simply chat and exchange views about our wildlife. Joe is always happy to listen and Allan is for ever ready to talk, our care and concern for our wildlife shows in the ambiance and relaxing atmosphere created by the charm and politeness of the good looking Joe and the ever so slightly grumpy attitude of old Allan, so together we will be able to help all the wildlife in our gardens prosper.
Our aim is to offer products that we consider the best for the birds at the most competitive prices - if you find any of our products dearer elsewhere we will gladly charge the extra!
So pop in to see us and understand why the birds in East Sussex, West Sussex, Holland, France and Kent think that Allan and Joe are the best things since Sunflower Hearts.
Whether you're an experienced garden bird lover or you have just caught the bug - Feathers is the place to come.

Customers' Comments
"I often bump into total strangers at Feathers, (although none are stranger than Allan, but that's a different story), and by the time we've finished our coffee and shopping they are no longer strangers but friends. Now I love all things birdy and going to get my supplies and a spot of bird-watching in the hide but the other really great thing about Feathers is the lovely band of people that it attracts, either in person or on line. I don't know how Allan and Joe did it but it's down to their hard work and general all-round-niceness that it just works. xx"

"Joe & Allan always find time to chat and discuss birds and life in general. They make us feel welcome in their shop with offers of coffee, biscuits etc. Nothing is too much trouble and we always end up having a good laugh. There are very few shops you can visit where you have a laugh with the owners. Most aren't interested in their customers. To Allan & Joe, Feathers is not just a job, it's all about what they both love - birds! Thanks Joe & Allan, keep up the good work."

"There is no other place like Feathers! The guys are really nice. You get a nice cup of coffee with a biscuit and their prices are really good too. What is there not to like? When I was there today I met a couple of ladies. I only spent a few minutes with them, but I had a feeling like I have known them for ages. I don't think it would be the same if anybody else would run the shop and I think there are lots of people who are gonna agree with me. So, thanks guys for opening Feathers. We just love coming in!!!"
