May be going up there tomorrow, if so will have a look at how dark they are. (or you could ring them).
I often get Marabou in an Craft Shop - much cheaper usually than fly tying shops.
I've also taken a permanent marker pen to white marabou.

The olive of the Marabou at John Norris is pretty much the same as in the picture on the link I posted above. The packet I looked at might have been a tad darker.
