Mixed grain/seeded flour in sourdough starter

Hello

 

I was gifted some sourdough starter from my Sister in Law. I had read I can feed it bread flour... which is what I have done... but I have just realised it is actually multigrain flour and now there are bits of grain and seed in my starter :( have I ruined it????

 

Thank you x

It's fine - a little different - but eventually it's fine. Mix it in little by little till gone and continue. It will be a little different - but only till it's gone. Enjoy!
