I wouldn't use that, there's too much other shit in it.
You want wbs that is mostly/all millet and milo- sunflower seeds, corn, etc., will just make it harder for you to do what you want with it.
If you live in a decent sized town/city in the US, I believe you can find wbs that is only millet/milo at Target- i've never been able to find pure millet and milo at wal mart, ace hardware, all the pet stores, home depot, lowes, etc..... I only found it at target.

Get the cheap-ass wild bird seed, not fancy parakeet seed. Try to avoid cracked corn, it's a sticky hassle. Pennington's is probably the site favorite. If you have a Kroger's or King Soopers store, their brand of WBS in the 20lb bag works great.
But rye works even better than WBS. You can find it at health store in the bulk bins.
-------------------- You make it all possible. Doesn't it feel good?

Pennington's brand works great
but I still favor the millet/milo bag from Target; however, Doc_T is totally right- rye berries is where its at
