Have you received them yet (or purchased them before)?

Just curious because I went on the website and those look like some pretty big feathers.

Have them already. The feathers aren't that big, and there is a good range of sizes. Forgot to take pics last night, but will do so this evening and post them.

THere are definitely feathers for size 14-16 hooks.

Photos for those wondering on size and color
Hook is a size 10 TMC3769 wet fly - the top feather came from the very top of the cape, the larger from the bottom.

Pale watery dun

Medium Grey Dun - two different patterns on the feathers - one banded, one solid

Dark Grey Dun

Light Grey dun

Two unique variants

Nice feathers at a very good price. This is also a very good company to deal with, I have been buying from them for a few years and have had no real problems. :thumbsupu

Thank you for posting all those pic's! :thumbsupu

Good range of feathers... looks to be quite a bargain.

That speckled variant on the right side looks "buggy"... very nice.
