So I just bought more bird food from Chewy ( which is where I usually get it) and was shocked that JJ’s food has increased by three dollars a bag. I’m used to a bump of a dollar or so but that was a big price jump all at once. I can’t find any explanation for the increase. Has anyone else seen a sudden spike in prices for their birds’ food?

Both Harrison's and TOPS here in Australia have suddenly jumped by between $5 and $7 for the size of bags that I buy, depending on the retailer. Costs to import may explain some of that as well I guess. Won't change my buying habits but it certainly was a noticeable increase!
 
Yup, Harrison has had a jump in price. I am so glad that I found chop recipes here that Nameliss will eat. Her pellet intake is down. (Her weight is stable at 15 ounces. A big jump from her former norm of 14.2-14.5 ounces. Up from about 410 to 444 gms.)

If you send Chewy a message, sometimes they'll send you a coupon to get a cheaper price. I get Ottos food there and it's a little cheaper than other places but still $16 or 4lb bag of seed or pellets.

make sure to include a picture or 2 of your bird(s) . They love it.
 
I use Harrison’s, but honestly I hadn’t noticed.
 
YEP! It's gone up $2.00 cdn up here in Manitoba, Canada, depending on the store. That's just Tropican pellets. Off Amazon? Ouch.... I saw Bird Street Bistro was almost $60 cdn a bag there. I'm better off getting it at The Bird Shop... I blame the tariffs.
