Hey sandfly,

You're the man! You delivered on your promise, and it's before most people are up. Kudos sir, kudos.

What type of feather are you using for the legs? Could I just use something like a dyed Mallard Flank?

 

[sandfly]

I use my own stock from my birds, reason I am breeding them. a mallard will work too, just have to come down and get some special feathers...lol
