It takes about 4-6 weeks for a feather to completely grow back. However, the amount of time depends on the overall health of the bird. It also depends if the feather has been broken off or if it has completely come out. A broken feather never grows back but needs to be shed by the bird during a moult before it regrows. When the flight feathers are clipped it will depend on how long before its next moult as to the time the feathers take to regrow. If the bird has just moulted and is clipped then it will be a few months as opposed to a bird that is clipped just prior to moulting.

∙ 13y agoCockatiels will only re-grow feathers in the presence of other cockatiels. For optimum regrowth, the number is very specific: 17 must be present, and the birds must be loosely positioned in a circular shape (either in captivity or in the wild). Although re-growth is possible with other numbers, it is not desirable as it can lead to infections of the gland and claw.
