It is just a yellow cock hackle palmered down the body.

Would be interested in this myself as I am struggling to find a nice bright yellow with a good taper , most I have bought the feathers are too big or short in fibre .

Chinese neck capes are what you are looking for. You will get the taper you need with these non genetic hackles.
Plenty of suppliers out there, Veniards, Glasgow angling etc etc.
