Depends what type of bird it is for, but:

red millet
prosso millet
white millet
sunflower
rape seed

and others I can no longer recall.

Spray millet grows quite nicely and seed eating birds just love
it. A friend owned a pet shop and lived on a farm; he made a
nice profit selling this fresh spray millet.
