I have been shopping for hackle and while not that new to tying, this
is the first time I've bought hackle. Can someone tell me what the
difference is between Hen and Rooster hackle?

You have rec'd some great information from some world class tyers. The
only
thing this amateur can contribute is that their are many more chicken
feather dealers out there than the big guys. I have purchased some
incredible necks/saddles from Keogh (he always gives you the saddle with
every neck you buy, free) and believe it or not, from Cabelas!

Here is a link you might find useful:
