I used rice with my Skylan stands without issue.  I would think any other material typically used would also work.  Sand, metal shot, etc.

I used cat litter to fill my Skylans - the clumping kind of litter, not the old fashioned clay kind.

I have long used cat litter after one experience of straining sand years ago. Not Skylan stands in my case.

Birdseed.
a couple of bags (unopened ) of Metal Shoot
would be more dense. But aren't we really
talking about quibbles, small change?

Thank you everyone for the input I appreciate it,  also on the filling with kitty litter do you have any litter smell with it?

I used silica sand--very dry.  Made the stands very heavy and they have no air pockets.

Use the 'unscented' litter.  Absolutely no odor.
