I just threw a bunch of millet seeds from the store bought millet, and look at what I got! They looked like weeds to begin with and grew fast! I started another pot last week & it's already growing!
We stopped mowing the grass under the outside feeders to see what comes up for the outside birds.

I think the kind we buy in the store comes from millet trees that they also use to grind into a flour for humans to consume. From what I remember, it was a hot and very dry country, so what I got was smaller seeds that are light in color. The seed I let grow under the back deck is a lot larger, but it's more food the the wild birds. I just took a pic. have to load it, than put in photo bucket.
