Millet is a great treat and are often used as rewards. Spray millet contains lots of fat so feed them sparingly.

I, personally, only give peices of strand every other week. I like giving other treats such as fruits, more often.

Mine devour them quickly. I usually do one piece a week.

I probably give mine a strand every other week like softie. So when they have it, its a real treat!

The millet gives my Willie the runs. :D So, I try and not give it to her very often.

Red millet and white millet are found in their food I dont know the difference though :D

Rudabaga refused grapes so I need to try different fruits and veggies since I dont want to offer millet until he does something wroth rewarding.

I have a banana right now on my desk and Willie keeps wandering around it. She's thinking about eating it, but the she changes her mind and walks through the stand on my picture frame. :)

be carefull of her eating the skin... they are one of the worst (besides strawberries) for pesticides and other nasty chemicals!

Also, you, yourself should peel the banana, then wash your hands, then eat it. its toxic to us too!
