CathyJr Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 My Hanna was clipped whene i got her she is Two and a Half years old , How long does it take for her Flight feathers to grow back? One side is coming in good, she lost one the other day but it wasnt a live one the shaft was dead so im thinking she moulted it. There is no signs of Plucking. You can see on the First pic posted in the photo room. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Usually the same position on both wings of the flight feathers will molt out at the same time and the flights will molt out in different stages so in the wild they are still capable of flight but it may take a year or more for all the flight feathers to molt out so that she has a full set, just be patient.

danmcq Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 It will take up to two years for all primaries to come back in. Hopefully they will all be back in sooner. Each set that molts will increase lift, so be prepared from longer fight capabilities soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
