Its a better deal and it will stay good for a LOOOONG time if you keep it in a dry place. I buy it in a 25lb box:) White millet is the most redily accepted but get it from a reputable company and it should be bright golden color. Keep it bug free! Pantry moths love it and the little sticky moth traps kept nearby help prevent that. I personally transfer it to plastic tubs or tupperware and precut it all into serving size pieces before I store it. I take all the stems and seeds that fall while doing so and dump it outside for the wild birds to "recycle".

Thank you for your response...

How much is the right amount to give to a Conure? Is it okay everyday?
