you want...white millet...
here is an example of how to buy it...
http://www.amazon.com/Fifth-Avenue-Birding-432_50-Millet/dp/B0007R4IN6
but I wouldn't pay that price!~
I used to be able to get 50 lb. bgs for less than $20.00

Since you're gonna go replace this junk anyways, go grab some Rye Berries if you can.

So long as millet is NOT HULLED.
Millet works fine, all by itself.
Best buy is a sorghum/millet based wild bird seed.
In like 20 or 40 lb bags.

thats brilliant. once i stopped laughing i thought...
is that bag pc'able.ok not likely,but...
snip off a corner>fill with water and let it soak for a couple of hours.
hang on your washing line for a few to drain.
put a poli stuffed tube in the open corner and rubber-band it in place,
PC for 60 mins,cool and inoculate. 
...going to the pet shop now...

Okay, thanks guys, maybe I'll go with birdseed or something. It appears white millet isn't readily available in my area.

Try a PETSMART, if there is 1 in your area.
40 lb bag of BIRDBASICS WBS is only $8.
