Marlton’s Spray Millet Bird Food is one of the better carbohydrates for birds as millet is highly digestible. Many grains acidify in the stomach, but millet is highly alkaline to counteract acids and digest more easily.

It is also an excellent source of protein, with one of the highest amino acid profiles of all the cereal grains. Millet is a grain that bears seed and should be given to any bird as a treat and not the main meal.
