Hulled Millet good for spawn substrate???

I was planning on using millet for the first time and came across these 2 sites and was wondering if I could use the following millet for mycology purposes...
1. Second to last (eighth set of seeds)
http://www.feed-store.com/seed.html
OR
2. third on the left
http://www.homegrownharvest.com/organicgrains-2lbs.html
While researching proper millet use in the link below
http://www.shroomery.org/index.php/par/24332
it says you do not want hulled millet
"The millet at healthfood stores is usually hulled millet, meaning w/o hull. You do not want to use that kind. If my town has a bird store, I´m sure most towns w/ a decent population do. Try to either get millet w/ hulls or a birdseed mix w/ lots of millet in it."
Can somebody please let me know if either of the 2 sources of millet above are any good...
I will throw 5 stars your way lol!!!!
thanks!

Hulled millet will make unusable MUSH.

You might want to ask AGAIN.
Hulled millet will result in a cooked oatmeal consistency.
Do doubt about that.
Try it, if you don't believe it.
Hulled millet is available in health & bulk food stores.
Best bang for your buck, economy wise is WBS.
40 lbs for around $8.

There is a way to do it, you two, but it takes much patience to figure it out.

if you accidently do end up with hulled millet, you can grind it in your coffee grinder/food processor and use it like BRF in pf-style cakes. I've done it... I cant tell you how well it would fruit in cake form, i crumbled and cased them.

Do doubt about that.
Yes, our millet is hulled. If you need anything else, please don't hesitate to ask.
