Kirk’s Feed Store

I love these folks! They are incredibly nice.
I’ve been going to this store for years, and am always impressed with their knowledge about, and care for, fowl of all types– even my parrots!
If you need anything farm related this is the place to start.

I went to Kirk’s in old Burien because I’d been going there since I was a kid.
So, when I got chickens I went to Kirk’s to get supplies.
In going there its old school ratty kind of place that seems to be a place that you’d see in an old western. The current owners are a bit messy and seem to be ‘collectors’ of old stuff. Most is just junk. Some is actual collector items.
Over the last two years their prices have raised exponentially. At first prices seemed to go with what everyone was charging… or so I thought.
18 usd for 50pds organic layer feed-​poultry. Then up to 25 – the nest few months 30usd now its a frightening 35 + tax and, its not even 50pds any longer its 45pds.
Mistakenly, I thought this was the going price for the area. Well, its not. On a fluke I went to Marysville to a feed store there…20usd for 50pds organic poultry layer feed pellets.
Ok…maybe they are charging so much being close to the city. Could be… I thought I’d go there-Kirk’s– just for straw… not anymore
They were out of straw bales.
The not so bright guy there tell me they had sweepings 50pd bags.
7.50. Needing to clean the coop I bought one. Normally a bale costs $ 14. well, I get the ‘bag’ which is so lite I can carry it with my finger and thumb. I was pissed. Told the guy this is no 50pds. He replys «that is a 50pd bag» Maybe in outer space. It was a bag they use to hold 50pds of seed.
You guys just lost a customer.
