Question How often should I feed millet?

My two robos absolutely LOVE millet. I never give them the whole branch (whatever it is, lol), I just peel off a little clump or two and place it in the cage. I usually use this as a treat/protein booster. I usually give them millet every 2-3 days. I went to see my friend who has robos and she told me millet was fattening and they shouldn't have too much. She only let her hams have a couple of nibbles of it before taking it away from them. Is it true that millet is fattening, and am I feeding too much of it? I haven't noticed my hams getting fatter in the month that I've had them. They usually don't eat it all at once. They will fill their cheek pouches with it, take it to the burrow and snack on it (along with their other food) throughout the day when they wake up.
