  French white millet French white millet (Panicum milaceum) is the most digestible sort of millet for budgies. Most current seed mixtures contain French white millet besides other sorts of grains. One kg French white millet costs about 0.80 Euro here in Europe, it's a cheap and good food.

It's great fun for budgies if you serve French white millet sprays that cost about five Euro per kg here in Germany. In many parts of Europe, it is not available. If you spend your holiday in Germany, try to get some millet sprays like that - your budgies will surely love it! In some parts of Europe, this sort of millet is also sold in a half-ripe state. My budgies are absolutely crazy for green millet.
