Can't say, then they'll be popular and I'll never get to see them,
and then the rookeries will get wiped out by flyfishermen.  LOL

 Ok, Don,
 I'm serious:
 What type of are these feathers? More wet fly hackle? More for winging?
 Size?...
 What are the special characteristics you are searching for? Or is it
 simple a good add-on for ice dubbG

 Things may have changed, but the bird is not in any danger.  Zoos are
 very protective, and will fib about the status of them.  I called the
 Federal agencies and customs, and there's no restrictions due to
 endangerment status.  A hide would be difficult to get in because of
 general bird precautions, but a treated dry sterile patch of feathers
 would not be a problem- if you could find a source.

I have a few in a secret location, once I have a breeding population going, 
these things are going to be bigger than ostrich farming.

 

  But getting them to breed seems to be a problem at the moment...
