I would assume that you could purchase them from most well know fly tying material stockists. I acquired mine from natures larder.

You get them off a Cock Ring-necked Pheasent,the full skins are around
£20.If you stay near a shooting estate youll probably get a bird for a couple of quid or watch the road for road kill.Hope this helps.
