Anyone have a source of millet hulls? I'd be willing to barter all kinds of homemade goodies for enough to make at least one pillow.

Hi Angie,

You know I was just thinking about them too, I have a bird and he eats them daily... would love to find a sourse.

Could you use rice for your pillow?? I have Jasmine rice if you'd be interested in that.

Hugs,

I've been looking into buckwheat too. But the millet hulls are the softest and quietest of the ones I have tried. I found a "source" but you have to buy 15 METRIC TONS!!!! Too much for me!

Hmmm - where do they think you would put 15 metric tons? Kinda makes you wonder what they usually do with millet hulls:)

I too have been thinking about doing away with my down pillow and trying something like this.
