HEllon kajoro,

It is ok to mill the maize and feed to animals.

NOTE........But ensure it has not been affected / infected by moulds/aflatoxins. Such infected maize is hazardous and can cause death to both animals and pose a risk to humans too if they eat meat, eggs and milk from such.

Thank you very much for your advise. The had been put pesticides. Am thinking of first washing them, drying them up completely and then making maize germ. Is it ok?

Very much ok. Make sure they are fully dried after cleaning.

Good luck.
