BOLIO1 1,078 Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Interesting Millet, I never used corn.....just scrambled eggs and oats mixed up. Greenies are great natives to start with. I bred them straight and hybridized with Himalayan Greenfinch and even produced a linnet x greeny hybrid just in a mixed collection aviary with only one greenfinch hen and a single linnet cock living amongst the rest. You've reawaked my interest again.....thanks! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
