I just spread by hand, but I don’t have a lot of area to cover. Throw with the wind and you can cover a lot of area with one throw.

the thing about baiting is, even a rookie hunter could have a 170 bird season if they bait holes

How are y'all putting the seed down? Broadcast? Grain drill? Can you just throw it out by hand or do you have to make a seed bed and run a harrow over it? We disc all our ponds then broadcast the seed. Have known people to hand throw it out in moist ground and it works fine that way as well.

We were told to losen the dirt tehn spread seed by hand or a spreader. We used a cheap scotts seed spreader. then jut a dusting of dirt over the top, we raked it with a leaf rake.

I heard from a viable source that you were supposed to take your shoes off and throw it out over the mudflat and then stomp around on it barefoot like you were makin wine or something.

Anyone have any problems with cows eating it? Rule #1 on planting millet: If you have cows...don't plant....

If I didn't enjoy planting millet so much, I wouldn't do it, dang cows, knew this would happen  .  Put up electric fence last weekend, got a bunch of new coming up, and planted a bunch more, maybe it will take off now.  I feel your pain. Put me electric fence up to keep them cows out, millet growing now..
