Best Video I have seen so far about feather types and their usage. Now I have a much better understanding for what I have to look at tying my flys. Thank you very much for this great video.

Two points: rooster feathers are not only longer, but they are also stiffer than hen feathers. Lower grade rooster hackles are often used to tie the lateral line in salt water flies.

I was going to skip this video, then I came to my senses. I teach Canadian Vets to tie flies and of course how to fish them. Would you mind if I use this video as part of our program when I get one up and running again. Most of these Soldiers and vets are still cautious about exposing themselves to potential sources. This will be so much better than me explaining it since you have done such a good job.

Nice job. This is getting more confusing as time goes on and more feathers come available. Well done you. - Bubba

Only thing I missed, midge dry flies, the smallest, are tied using the rooster saddle, on the full right of your screen, the longest feathers.

You forgot the Schlappen feathers... Extremely webby, big and long feathers used for saltwater patterns.

When it comes to “saddle” location on a chicken/rooster, think of the location of a saddle on a horse.

Are your birds raised only for harvesting fly tying materials? Where do they come from? NA or SA?

Yes, this has been the case for 500 years. Whitling farms purchased some coq de leon from Spain in 1990 and cross bred them with another line that has been developed in America for the past 90 years. With coq de leon , now it's basically impossible to import them and they are endangered due to lack of interest in raising them. It's more profitable for people to work in the cities so they left the farms and there aren't too many left of those ones. You can't import them due to avian bird flu. I looked into it because I'd like to try to help conserve that bird. In spain they only harvest the feathers by plucking a few at a time and letting the bird heal. Whitling farms has over 4000 birds.

Yes, that's been the case for 500 years. Whitling farms bought some coq de leon from Spain and those have been raised for their feathers for fly fishing for centuries. There they are only plucking the feathers and selling the feathers, the bird still lives and keeps growing feathers. Whitling farms probably does a lot with the meat since they have 4000 birds. They might turn it into feed, sell it, eat it, or whatever. It's certainly not going to get wasted since that's not profitable.
