Just wondered if you're planning to freeze the extra bags. Don't know about parrot feed, but some feed has a rather short shelf life. I would think that freezing would extend the food's quality and keep it from becoming rancid. Just a thought.

Being seed I never thought about it going bad.I did put it all in large glass jars. Maybe I should freeze some ( Harvey enjoys frozen carrots )

The wild birdseed I buy does go bad. . . gets bugs. I no longer buy more than a short supply. I've read that chicken food will turn rancid relatively quickly. I don't buy large stocks of that either. Even rabbit food can go bad -- perhaps not in glass jars -- but freezing the bags you don't expect to use within a month or so is not a bad idea.

I do still have one bag going to read label

Unopened bags are good for long time exp date June 2018.

Doubt seed will be around that long or that it will last that long. Oils in grain will deteriorate.
