How long will it take my Eclectus parrot to grow back his feathers once clipped?

adrianamedina25: How long will it take my Eclectus parrot to grow back his feathers once clipped?
We brought our parrot home when he was 8 months old. When we went to pick him up, the breeder clipped his wings. He is now 1 year and 2 mos, and he still can’t fly. How long will it take him to grow his feathers back so he can fly?

I had a Solomons island Eclectus and we clipped his wings quite often, prob about every 3 – 4 months. Seems yours would have grown back by now.

Eclectus usually don’t molt their wing and tail feathers till about one year old. Maybe he’s just a little late. Check out this site about their molting cycle. It’s from ekkie forums so maybe a good place to join.

alot of ppl will disagree with me on this one but you should never clip wings on an eclectus it causes agression . I am really surprised at a breeder doing this . seems to be that has been long enough for them to grow out unless they were clipped wrong which is a possibility take this bird to an avian vet .
