Feather

Feathers are items dropped from chickens  when they die. The only use for feathers at the moment is to make arrows to fire from a bow. Chickens drop 0-2 feathers upon death.

in the current version (Beta 1.8v1), Zombies will drop Rotten Flesh instead of feathers, making chickens the sole source.

Appearance
Feathers have been mistaken for knives due to their apparent "handle" and by the fact that zombies used to drop them.
