If it's just a matter of bringing it from the Escondido store then why isn't it stocked regularly? Obviously people are buying it so it should be noted and stocked. Having owned quite a few businesses myself I'm always surprised that they're out of stock.

They started laying in December. They all grew up beautiful and I love having fresh eggs everyday. This year, one of my girls was brooding so I decided to get some fertilized eggs for her to sit on. She's now a very happy and protective mama hen of 3 cuties. I can't wait to watch them grow.

They patiently answered my questions and said they would be happy to pull items and carry them to the counter for me. Also, they were not going to refuse service to me if I chose not to mask my young children. (THANK YOU!!!) True to their word when I came in and after we were done being distracted by the cute little chicks and ducklings. I asked for help figuring out what we would need to care for our new bunny and they walked me to the right shelves and told me about my options there and bulk options located elsewhere. They also very willingly helped carry things out to my van and I saw them do that for many other customers too. I am happy to shop at a locally owned business and will go back here to get any other pet supplies in the future.

Back in January we got a wild hair up our you know what and decided we needed chickens. We called…read morearound but most places don't have chicks until the spring. Ranch Feed was the only place we could find them! They helped us pick out four chicks and even had a convenient starter kit with heating lamp, feeder and waterer that's pre-packaged and ready to go.

They've also made some great upgrades adding a third wash station while still keeping the drying station which makes everything super convenient and efficient. I absolutely love coming here and will definitely keep coming back for Diesel's baths and great products. Highly recommend!

I love this place, except the young woman who seems new and distracts all the young men from doing…read morethe good job they do with her conversation. What happened to oversight? Started going back to PetCo because they have focus and will put everything in the bag when I leave. Maybe she could go back in stocking and stop detracting. Nice woman, just not any focus. And distracts everyone from focusing on the job at hand. Like I said, love this place, but.... Better for me to go to Petco and get what I need. With the padres losing so much, it's not even the padres discount at Petco, but just making sure I get out with everything I went there for. She's very friendly and nice, but doesn't have animals on her mind like the rest of the team. Maybe she'll grow into the maturity it takes to do the job, maybe she won't. In the meantime, you're losing customers and I take my $300 a month+ and go elsewhere. It's a small drop in the bucket, but watch the faces and rolled eyes customers give to each other when asking questions, or when you're trying to check out and she's literally tacking at the guy trying to check you out. Someone should be paying attention there who is oversight. Perky doesn't cut it anymore when you can get what you want for cheap and get free delivery, or go to the kahootz in Poway, or Petco. Or Amazon. Really used to love this place. But.... When customers have to point out the shortcomings of what training isn't covering then there's a problem from the top down. When you have people sitting in the oversight chair up on the right side, you'd think they would be listening to see how things go, instead they join in. I'm too old for this crap. They seem to be the only game in town for a lot of items. I've spoken with two other people who go there who have had similar issues when asking for help there. Like her saying "she" (instead of "we") doesn't carry it, so she doubts the existence of a product. Seriously. Has done this to me twice. And to two other shoppers I know who are friends. What's going on there? It doesn't matter to me, I am going elsewhere again. Just when you had me back. So, don't even bother replying, not coming back. I hear there's a new pet store setting up in town. I guess competition causes competency. Eventually, she'll learn the job if people start mentoring her.
