The bag I ordered smells rancid like rotten eggs, is this normal or did the bag get spoiled in the heat during transit?

No, a rotten egg odor is not normal for this bird seed. Please do not feed it to your birds. I would return it. I will say that my last bag of this product had a small slit in the bag. It smelled fresh however.

The bag I received did not smell rancid.

is this a good every day food?

I feed my parakeets every day with this food but also I give them a lettuce(Roman ) and they seem to love it and tend to buy a different kind of bird food so they can have a variety of food . I think is good for them

Why is this so overpriced compared to chewy?

Well it’s a rip off now here on Amazon- I just bought this 5 lb bag in June (5 mos ago), for $8.99. Now in November they want $15.95. Greedy.
