Hackle Chickens

[Clearwaterhackle]

i own one of the rare Hackle breeds in the US. Things have changed in life and I need some help. Looking for someone that wants to either help me raise these birds and partner in the business or take over all together. Let me know if any one out there is interested?

Hackle birds are used for fly tying. These are amazing birds that take a lot of work. Here is a history on what I have.

Welcome to BYC!
Where are you located...'Clearwater' FLA?
Sure would like to know how to prepare the 'hides'.

 

[Clearwaterhackle]

We are in SouthEastern Idaho. The hides are pretty simple. We lay them out on a piece of cardboard. 3 days later they are good.

Welcome to BYC. Absolutely incredible birds that have always intrigued me. Too old to take advantage of the opportunity.

Just let them air dry in the sun.....no scraping, no washing, no pinning, no stretching, no adding chemicals or some kind of drying agent????

Do you sell fertile eggs? I'm sorry I know this isn't what you posted for but I have been trying to find Genetic Hackle eggs. I would help with your birds, but I live on the East Coast. Thanks!
