Feathers are used in the Fishing and Fletching skills. In Fishing, feathers are used as lures for fly fishing. Feathers may also be used as bait for barbarian heavy-rod fishing, as a cheaper alternative to fishing bait. In Fletching, feathers are used to make arrows, darts, and bolts. Feathers cannot be noted, as they are stackable.

These are the only feathers that can be used to summon a newtroost during the Creature Creation activity in the Tower of Life, as coloured feathers are not accepted by the altar.

Most shops that sell feathers also sell feather packs which contain 100 feathers per pack.
