Feathers are made of protein and will compost well.

How about donating the duvets intact to a women’s shelter (they sound small enough for children’s bedding)?

I’ve recently read that feathers are a great source of nitrogen and are good for use in the garden, especially for soft fruit like raspberries and strawberries. You’re supposed to put a layer of thim in the hole when planting. I was also wondering if they had been treated with any chemicals but so far haven’t been able to find out. As far as I could gather from the article I read though, it seems that they’re perfectly safe to use for this purpose.

Feathers compost, adding nitrogen and minerals. Just do not add a lot at one time. Along with feathers, hamster bedding, bird poop, among other non-meat eating pets poop, dry dog or cat food can also be added. So, before throwing it out, consider putting it back into the land and improve nutrients. BTW, if you don’t compost because your just getting started, just bury it, at least several inches below the surface, and space the burials several inches apart. Recycle the nutrients.

Donate the bedding to a dog or cat sancturay, there always in need of fresh bedding

I’ve met a lot of indians that make crafts and such from feathers. If you don’t want to make crafts yourself, you could donate them to people who would. You could donate them to schools or girlscouts for craft projects.
