Millet is used in the diet of all birds: straight beaks and hooked beaks. In clusters, it's a delicacy they love.
Millet in clusters has a good protein and carbohydrate content and it also contains a large number of amino acids. Ideal to distract your birds and thus avoid pecking (pulling feathers).
