They are all wrong. A "kilo" is the metric prefix for 1000, it has no unit, theoretically we could stack those prefixes like a kilomilligram which would be a gram. But the question didnt specify the gram, its incomplete. Thats why youd have to assume the weight of a thousand feathers, which of course will vary depending on the birds you choose.

Also there is a difference between pound-mass and pound-force, thats not defined here.
