I think Keratin is used for artificial nails (its what our nails
are anyway, and for industrial products). As it is what rhino
horns are made of (I think) it may be used for medicinal purposes
as well.<br>
<br>
It is also used in beauty products - so there's the market.<br>
<br>
All the best,<br>

As chicken feathers are Keratin they may be worth a lot
more as Keratin than as methane.<br>

Happy digesting(?)<br>
