well you will find millet mixed in with other seeds. You can take them out by adding water and the other seeds should float. Have you tried asking the health food store to order it for you?

Birds, or any store that sells birds usually has some. Oddly enough, hardware stores that carry seed for wild birds sometimes have white millet by the pound. If I ever try millet - I have the pleasure of knowing that the pet shop up the street from me sells it for 99 cents per pound

You could always buy rye online as well.
I guess im lucky to live near a wholesale pet store which sells millet by the pounds.

get a bag of birdseed. many types of birdseed are predominantly millet. go to any of those stores you mentioned and you will be able to find birdseed. get a kind that doesn't contain fungicides or nutrient pellets (if it's got colored bits in it, it's no good), and is mostly millet with little or no corn or sunflower seed. millet grains are round and about a millimeter or two across.
i am of the opinion that birdseed works better than pure millet.
