Beautiful birds. I have a couple of albino tail eye feathers. I have to tell you...they are not nearly as nice as a regular Peacock tail for tying purposes. There is very little in the way of fuzz on the hurl. They would be ok for quill type flies but it's flimsy and thin.

I have a slide of a regular peacock and a white peacock strutting and displaying a few feet from each other in an aviary in Singapore. Though not rare they are uncommon. The hard part is getting feathers without stain as the feathers are fragile and do not bleach well. You can occassionally find them for sale on eBay.
