There's always a market for these feathers. FIrst check to see if the
opera, theater in your area might want them for costuming. They would
want a bunch but not necessarily hundreds at once. I don't know how
long you've been collecting them. Check here, of course. I know there
are millinary lists, but I don't know where they are.

A good thing to do when you BUY feathers is to put them into a
zip-lock bag (if they fit) and store them in the freezer for a week or
two to kill any bugs and their eggs that might have hitched a ride
before you add them to your stash. That will help keep your feathers
bug-free.

My family is raising lots of exotic pheasants, peafowl, and other birds and my 
house is starting to get flooded with 4 foot long peacock feathers and 3 foot 
long zebra striped ones, shorter ones with red tips, etc.
