They're in really good condition, and have always had socks covering the heads in storage. I don't have a place to use them and I'd hate to see them just wither away.
Just asking this makes me sad....

Yes specks are excellent,milder "wildness" taste---really good no matter how prepared---in my opinion
as far as the weight---I have had really big ones close to 8 lbs,but most 5.5 to 7 lb range
