Regrow wing feathers on show rooster

[Noraaaaa]

I pulled three wing feathers off my show rooster 3 weeks ago. How long will it be for primary wing feathers to grow back after being plucked? @Amer

I believe they won't regrow until he molts, but I'm not 100%

I believe @Ingrid_Grace to be correct. I don't believe they regrow individually.

It is possible to speed up the process by trying a force molt. Do you have the means to black out the windows in the coop?

Could take a month, or two. They're a more sturdy feather.

Thank youuuu!

Thank youuuu!

Since these are pulled feathers, no need to wait for a molt. Broken feathers on the other hand, need a molt to regrow.

Pulled primary feathers will grow back in a month or less. I do this on all of my ducks when I sell them and some of my smaller ducks grow them back in in about two weeks. They start growing immediately after being pulled, as long as you get the whole shaft.
