    Soon you may have a hard time finding hackle in some colors or maybe even any color who knows, but I do know they have started on the neck hackle now too.

    It amazes me at the feathers that some are trying to pass off as saddle. On ebay there are some that looks like they come off chickens with mange Doh... I guess it will get a lot worse near Christmas.

    As of about a month ago my main place to buy salt water neck hackle by the pound stopped selling bulk. So I am down to buying packs wholesale and may add tomorrow a bunch before they are out of packs too. Already they are having trouble with the variegated hackle and are out of most. I just got some and should have bought more I guess. Thank goodness I bought a pound of each of my favorite colors like Chart, and FL Blue and FL Yellow even if it's not the FL yellow I like best. I am starting to wonder if there is a way they will attack marabou?

    Me too, heck we have to have some kind of good feathers to use. Think I am going to add a couple pounds of marabou. I have plenty Chart as I have close to 2 pounds and FL Yellow, not the one I like best, bit still good and I may want to get some FL Blue and Hot Pink, not sure about other colors and need to think on that. I do have a lot of Oz. of different marabou so maybe I have enough.
