Carter’s Hay & Grain

Love, love this place! Everybody is so helpful and they have a great sense of customer service. By the time I purchase the bulky items I need, the items are already by my car and waiting for me to open the trunk! Great assortment of products at all different price points. Their store makes me feel like I am back in a small midwest town.

I just love Carter“s. This location on Sunday 9:30 am to 11:30 has Shots for Pets. The women in charge of this location, Shots for Pets, are just amazing, efficient, and knowledgeable. The prices are affordable and one of the few places to get Comfortis for Flea control. Thank you for such great customer service.

Super nice and super helpful– always! we live very close to them and use them constantly. The woman that’s normally in there is always a pleasure and knows what she’s talking about!

Love love Carter’s!
My husband and I moved here in lakeside a few Months ago right next to Carter’s and I figured Id just stop by to check it out. They have good bones, good food, the people are always really nice and help me to my car. It’s wonderful and the best part about it is, I can get all my supplies here with out ever stepping foot into a Petco of petsmart! So awesome!!! Yay Carter’s!!! Amazing!!! I have 3 cats and a dog and you guys fit all m needs!!!

Love this place! Very reasonable prices and they always give me advice when I need it. They care about your pets more than your money!

On sundays from 9:30am-12:30pm they have a low cost pet vaccination booth in the parking lot
Never really went in the store before, but thought I would check out the cat food prices. I normally pay $ 10.00+ tax for a 5lb bag of IAMS food at Target. hey had a almost 18lb bag here (less trips) for $ 31.00 (includes tax) Basically means I got a few extra pounds in there
Lady at the counter was very nice. Seems like an unassuming mom and pop type place you could easily miss when driving. Not sure what else they have, but I was satisfied with my trip there

Sadly after 3 years of wonderful service we started having some real issues with Carter’s. Over a period of 3 months early in 2013 they started making some really huge mistakes with billing and what they charged our credit card. The staff also seems to have developed an «I don’t care» attitude. Even though their pricing is probably the lowest in the area we felt it wasn’t worth dealing with the poor service so we switched feed stores.

One of the best feed stores in town. They have great knowledge and they’re always willing to help. They also have a good selection of organic feeds and animal meds.
One time an issue came up with some mineral in my chicken feed (manganese or something). One of the guys took me back to the feed room and we looked at the ingredients in all the bags. Then we sat down and had a 20 minute conversation about organic vs conventional. Always an outstanding experience at Carters!

Love. Love. Love. Totally worth the drive for me to stock up on supplies for my rabbits and dog. I am not exaggerating when I say I save over $ 50 a month just on my rabbits alone because of their rock bottom prices on hay and pellets. And to make the experience even better, the service is always warm and friendly, and they always load everything into my car for me.

Great feed store ! I buy all my feed there. The prices are the best around and the service is great… they are very knowledgable about everything they sell. Have several chickens at my house that came from there and they are all very healthy.

Friendly staff. Only place we come to get grain and supplies for our goats. The staff is very knowledgeable. You can feel comfortable asking «stupid» questions.

This is my Favorite Feed store in town.
They hae the best prices on chicks and usally have a good stock of new chicks.
The little store is jam packed and hard to get around — but the service is outstanding! Someone will always answer the phone and provide you with answers to your odd questions. I buy everything there from my dogs advantage to my shampoo for my llama and feed for my pot belly pig.
I never feel like i’m bothering anyone with silly questions when i call. The parking is very close to the front door.
There prices on Advantage kicks everyone elses butt but a mile
They don’t nickle and dime you and try to sell you stuff you don’t need. Chances are they price is better then everyone elses in town. I go there first and purchase 95% of my feed from them. They even have Sunday hours — you can’t beat that with a stick.

Great people!
Offers feed and care products for everything from dogs to horses. Sure, you might save a few bucks buying your dewormers, halters, and sprays online, but the service this store offers is unparalleled!
Sound advice without the typical «trying to sell you everything» hassle :) Lots of goodies crammed into a tiny tack shop. If you don’t find what you’re looking for, ASK! If you’re not sure exactly which product will suit your needs best, ASK! They’re sure to help you find what other locals are recommending and not just the expensive stuff!
