The Whiting Farms Spey line derives its heritage from the classic silky breed of chicken. Dr. Whiting has advanced the breed to produce the near perfect replacement of spey-style heron-like feathers in an affordable pelt. You have to see it to believe it! You can tie numerous Spey patterns and sea trout flies with this material.
The extreme demand in Europe and North America for Silver Spey Capes exceeds the breeding possibilities of the Whiting farm many times over, so that Spey Hackles are often sold out. This is because no other breeder in the world has Spey Hackles that even come close to Whiting's quality. Silver Grade capes are not only of better quality than Whiting's bronze capes, but also larger and lasting much longer. A Silver Spey Hackle Cape from Whiting is an investment for years and therefore especially the classic colours are very, very sought after.
