Dumb question. . Would chicken feathers work for arrow fletchings?

Because I have a picture for everything and it’s all sitting right here next to me. Lol
Yep they’re hen pheasant. This is a hen pheasant skin.

These are turkey feathers for fletching. I’m pretty sure turkey is all that’s used because of the stiffness.

Had to cull the little white stag he wasn't doing so hot. Makes me wanna go get his momma out an ring her neck but she was still being a great momma to the others and was that white stag until their second fight where I had to clean up his wounds. Oh well that's how it goes sometimes.

I was thinking some of those redish/orange feathers would look pretty awesome for fletchings. But ya, probably not stiff enough.
