Never use Soap and water unless you want to take out fluffineess.
I use soap and water to clean feathers. The quick and easy way to regain fluffiness is to use a blow dryer to dry cleaned feathers.

Feathers McGraw , the penguin from The Wrong Trousers , does not actually appear in the Wallace and Gromit animated short A Close Shave but an allusion to his presence is made when we see 'Feathers was here' written on the wall of Gromit's jail-cell .
They are purely decoration, they work OK without them, it's the net and feathers that do the work, the net catches the dreams then they slide down the feathers to the recipient, which is why they are over the sleeping persons head...
clean
The word "clean" can be an adjective when used like this: I like driving my clean car. In this case, "clean" is used to describe the car, making it an adjective.
The best way to go would be a spray paint. --- An airbrush used at the finest possible setting may be able to color the feathers while avoiding clumps and runs. A light coating of a very thin paint may also stain the feathers and eliminate the need for complete coverage (feathers will look light blue). Rather than paint, staining may be a better option, using food coloring (or tempera) and careful drying. Bird feathers have also been successfully dyed using KoolAid as a colorant.
They 'pren' their feathers
They preen their feathers in order to clean them, and they clean others' feathers for grooming and social contact

No, you can't. The feathers still have germs on then and if you freeze it, the germs on the feathers will leak into the turkey's meat. Once that happens, you can't change it.

Preening
A product such as Citra-Solv is a natural degreaser, and perfectly safe to use on a birds feathers. A few drops of this rubbed into the stain using your thumb and index finger should clean it well, then wipe it with a clean towel or wash cloth in the direction of the feathers. You may also try 1/4 cup of baking soda to 1 quart water, applied with a clean towel or cloth in the direction of the feathers, or by rubbing with your thumb and index finger. Use clean towel or cloth to wipe dry.

Most birds like parakeets preen their feathers by putting a feather in their beak and sliding it across. By doing this the barbcules and the hooklets connect back together making the feathers more stable.
If your chickens are housed with other chickens my guess is that the other chickens plucked the feathers. That's what happens to our chickens.
Disease - birds do not normally loose their feathers. When they change them it is called moult. Moulting is a process (like shedding in mammals) done regularly by birds, to replace old feathers with new, healthy feathers. This is normal. When a bird loses many feathers at once, it is usually due to the bird plucking out its own feathers OR a condition called French Moult, for which there is no cure.
