Never wear a feather of any kind; you are not an armiger.

A very small feather might be okay, but expect to be challenged.
-
A large feather (e.g., a turkey feather) should never be worn.

Any feather is okay, as long as it is not from a golden eagle
-
Wear any feather you want (in the US); it’s a free country.

I do wear a feather or feathers. It is a stags head brooch with deer skin and feather decoration that I wear in my green beret.
No more "extreme" than the Bearskin(busby---hate that word!) of the Guards, or dare I say it, the Topi of the Royal Marines to name but two. Uniforms, particularly some British ones, certainly stand out when the occasion arrises!
