I just wondered how much millet is best to put in with my budgies - I have a male and female together. Thank you so much.

I’m assuming you mean millet sprays? Use millet only as a treat is best. It is a helpful tool when training and can be given as a treat when your birds are learning. Budgies love millet and will readily eat it over and above all else. Hanging sprigs of millet in the cage all the time will result in your birds eating from this single source of food rather than a variety of seeds and fresh foods. Millet isn’t exactly bad for your birds, but just like carrots are healthy, a diet of only one type of food is not.

I second what Hezz wrote. You will see people (in online pictures and such) keep millet in cages, and a lot of pet store chains have millet in cages. It should actually be a treat, not available all the time, so they get more variety in their diet.
