Where can I buy Millet, cuttle bones, and mineral blocks all at the same store online? I don't want to buy it at the pet store because their Millet isn't of good quality.

She has spray millet but she doesn't have cuttle bones...Or at least I couldn't find them on her site. =( Some one suggested Amazon.com on another site. What do you guys think? Do you think they have quality millet and cuttle bones (dont know how quality cuttle bones can be LOL)

we have all three available - the millet sprays and cuttlebones are individually packaged for safety, and the mineral blocks- you can choose standard unflavored, or choose your flavor in small, medium, and large sizes.

Wow I didn't know all millet is not the same. I buy at Petsmart, or Walmart or grocery store. I saw some on Dr. Foster and Smith and it said goldenburst millet.

Can someone give me a quick education on millet? Is it the freshness of it or the quality of the millet or both?

Well I have been buying millet since I sent some to Zamir for a treat 6 years ago and I can tell you for a fact that Kathies millet is the biggest, fattest, freshest, cheapest bestest millet I have ever seen and the Lovies go nuts everytime I open the box.

I will definitely buy it from Kathie on my next order. I didn't even know she carried it.

On a side note, I tried the flavored millet apple and blueberry, my birds don't seem to care for it much and I don't either, so messy and powdery.

None of my birds really went for it, even the smaller birds, parakeet and canary who can devour a whole millet stick in a day. the flavored millet just sits there.

The sunday conure and cockatoo, I only break off little sprigs and put in their bowl as a treat. they won't eat the flavorered either, just drop to the bottom but the reg millet they like. I bet they will love Kathie's.
