Friendly and affordable. Right off the freeway. We came for horse stall mats. Owner helped us roll and load the mats (since they didn't lay flat in the SUV). Everything was organized and we were in and out in 30 minutes. Thank you! read more

Shaun is the definition of a great small business owner! This is the second time I've come to him to purchase panels for my horses and I wouldn't go anywhere else. It's nice to see people still building and using American materials! Be sure to stop by and support this amazing shop. read more

Great old school feed and farm shop, complete with friendly cattle dog. Quality of hay was good and the staff grips how to load a truck correctly- something in short supply in the Bay Area these days. Good value on grass hay. Selection of feed is good and tons of fencing panels/corrals. Open Sundays too! read more

My husband and I were looking for some mats to use for our garage gym. We ended buying 4 pieces of 4' x 6' mats here. I am super happy we did because they are great quality. We've had them for about a week now and do not smell any kind of chemical/rubber smell. We spent about $200 for all 4 mats ($55 each). This was a good price compared to $75/mat at other places. This was a win for us and definitely recommend Bag Area Hay and Feed. Great customer service as well. Make sure so bring a truck to pick up because they are pretty big and a little heavy. read more

Have not been down here since the pandemic first started. We live an hour away. We had been looking for a horse shelter and extra panel/gate. We decided to buy new. Shaun was extremely helpful and very responsive by text messaging. He was able to fabric a gate/panel to our specifications within a day. Once we arrived, he helped load everything. I would buy from here again - knowing they can fabric custom panels. We plan on ordering a couple of custom ones in the near future. Prices for shelter were very close to used ones in the area and we did not need to deal with a longer drive and having to disassemble a shelter ourselves. read more

Always helpful, good prices, willing to order anything you need! It's great to have choices close to home!

Well we spend a bundle at this great place! We buy all our feed, feeders, hens, and now 45 stall mats that we use in my Center ( Creative Kids Children's Center) to ensure safety for the kids. Thanks guys! We'll be back soon! And you should all use them for large and small pet supplies! read more

Friendly service, informative staff, and good pricing. What more could you expect? They carry hay, grain, shavings, vaccines, farm animal feed and supplies, pet food and supplies, and ranch supplies. They will also do delivery and stacking. They are right off the highway on Greenville Road with plenty of parking. read more

I started shopping around for horse stall mats for a garage gym I'm outfitting and gave this place a call. They were the most expensive out of the 4 locations I called and more expensive from pretty much all websites online but they end up charging freight and shipping costs. For a 4x6 mat it ran us $65 per. Most places were in the mid to low 50's but this place was local to us here in Livermore - they offered to deliver them all the same evening for like $15 or something like that so because of the convenience and the idea that we'd be supporting a local business made up for the extra cost per mat. Our transaction and business here was pretty straightforward so unfortunately I don't have too much to add in terms of a service standpoint but because everything went smoothly we left satisfied with our purchase. read more

My wife and I have been longing to raise our own chicken for eggs for a variety of reasons. (1) eggs are really expensive nowadays (2) even though they claim the farm is organic, you never knew how they raise their chickens (3) you can keep the chicken as pets, free range chicken eggs are better? haha So anyhow, I browse through Yelp and surprise to see this business located in livermore. I've been going to livermore for wine tasting and dining, never thought livermore would have a place like this. I took a lot of pictures that day and they are in yelp now, basically this place has everything you need to start raising hens, from feeds, to pine shavings to the hens themselves. They would led you into the hen area, where you will also see ducks, goats and other animals. You need to let the guys know what kind of chicken you are looking for. The guys there are extremely knowledgeable, they would let you know if they hens are ready to laid eggs, or getting close. I recommend the ones of 6 months and older, they are easier to raise and no need to worry too much about the warmth issues. They have a few kinds of chicken and they will let you know how each of their behaviors are. In the end we picked up 4 very healthy hens. We also see some bunnies at the other side of the lot, just fyi. Overall if you want to start raising chicken for eggs, this is a great place to start! read more

Guillermo and Shaun were very helpful getting us started with our first time raising chickens. We started with two today and Guillermo gave us great advise on what we should do. You could tell he loves helping newbies with his passion for raising chickens as he has some too. Never seen so many chickens to pick from before. Our chickens already laid an egg! read more

I have never visited personally, i had my fiancé pick up some chickens (3-4 months old) for our younger brother. I called in regards to chicks.. in which he did not have any, but he mentioned immediately he had he chickens that were a little older. We were in a rush to find some for our brother and luckily he stayed open on a weekend day just so that we could pick them up. My fiancé came back with a beautiful white and brown chicken and they're the cutest ever. If we ever need anything personally.. of course this would be my first choice. Thank you for the great service! read more

I was reading all the reviews good and bad and although it is true that when you call, you get a voice mail, just leave a message! Dave called back within minutes and told me what I needed to know. He seemed very nice and I would definitely go there in the future. A friend recommended the place and she goes there all the time for her chickens and for her chicken's needs. She says they are healthy and happy hens. read more

I dont think they have set prices on their chickens. A friend of mine bought mature chickens a week before. Then i go and the guy mightve thought i was naive and took advantage of it be charging me almost 4 times more than if i bought it somewhere else. It was one of those, eh im already here type of thing and didnt want to back out, theyre already boxed. I wish the prices are on the coops. But im pretty sure its so that he can adjust them whenever he wants. Which is so wrong. I mean its not a crime to jack up the price but be fair, you know. read more

Their prices are not high and I was told " we're in the bay area " as a mode of justifying their steep prices. I guess that is what the true meaning is for their business name. Lol. You could just as easily drive a few miles in to town to another feed store and probably get better prices read more

I have been going here for 11 yrs. The owner is nice and helpful. Prices are great and the quality of hay for my horse is far better than anywhere else. This feed store is the best in the bay. read more

I really only come here for the timothy hay for our two rabbits. It's about $6-7 for a big bag. Much cheaper and better than the Oxbow hay you get at pet food exp/pet mart. Sometimes the staff will even stuff a little more in. I normally buy 4 bags will can last about 2.5 months for two rabbits. read more

Just picked up some hay and pellets got my pet rabbit. The staff is super friendly and helpful, and you cannot beat the prices here! I definitely recommend shopping here, and I will most likely never shop at petsmart or petco again! read more

I always seem to be out of hay on Sunday and it's the only place open. Nice guy who owns the place. Ok prices for alfalfa.

Visited this shop because I was interested in raising chickens for eggs. The staff was very informative. The gentleman that helped us gave us tons of info on breeds, care, what to expect having chickens. The shop had all the supplies we needed. Our visit was like going to a farm. Chickens and ducks in the back. A resident goat hanging out greeting customers. We purchased two "teenager" sexlink chickens. Can't wait to see our first eggs. read more

Super honest and nice. Goes above and beyond to get what you need. I was having trouble keeping my dog secured in my yard and had plans to spend a lot of money building something. He recommended a way cheaper fix and it worked! Have been a customer ever since! read more

This guy is amazing! Like your hometown feed store. I just tell him what I want and he collects it and loads everything right into the car for me every time with a smile. I like not having to go around a store on my own to collects heavy bags of feed. Not here! Also have fresh eggs, chicks and roosters for sale regularly. You must Check this place out read more

Oh, Bay Area Hay and Feed...I'm from Fremont and you're from Livermore, so I thought it would be a great idea to call ahead to see if you have the chicks I wanted. However, I've called and called and left messages, and called some more - and no on ever seems to be home. No one ever answers the phone. Does anyone actually work there? You may be great for the locals as they can go in whenever they want to, but until you get your administrative side in order, I'm not about to drive an hour to get to you to see if you might have whatever I need in stock. I may change my review of you later...if you actually answer the phone or call me back. read more

I was so sickened by the state of the poor chickens out back that I couldn't go inside. There were sick chickens, at least one dead chicken and a chicken foot lying on the ground. Many, many had rumps that had been picked clean. Please don't give them any of your money. I don't want them to have even 1 star. read more

Great products, easy to find, good parking, however, very poor customer service. I purchased my products from Utah - that's how unpleasant they were! read more

We bought two new hens to add to our backyard flock yesterday, as well as organic feed. Good prices, friendly service. This is a wonderful place with a great assortment of baby chicks, pullets, and roosters as well as all sorts of feed. read more

I bought what I was told was 50/50 grass hay and alfalfa blend from the owner's wife. It ended up being cow hay. I called Bay Area Hay and Feed's phone number, got a recording, left a message that the hay was not what the wife had told me I was getting. NO ONE EVER CALLED ME BACK!!! I will continue to go to Modesto to buy my hay. I was truly disappointed, as I believe in buying from local businesses, but if no one returns my phone calls...... read more

We drove out here and regretted it, we will not be going back again. Their craigslist ad said they had laying hens and pullets which I was looking for, but what it did not mention was the fact that almost every hen had been severely picked, most the birds had large bald patches and no tail feathers left. There were too many roos per pen, and I saw a chick who had been picked badly and was bloody running with its mom, no signs of it being treated. Their feed variety was not bad, no purina and most of the poultry feed was pellets not crumbles which I needed for my quails. They do special order. Prices were not bad but I can't bring myself to do business with a place that lets their birds get to be in bad condition. read more

This is a family feed store, open 7 days a week. The hay is ok, it gets hauled in from all over. I use it in a pich if I run low because it's better than the other hay place in town. But the grain and other sack feed is good as are prices. They have pannels and feeders as well as a good supply of other things. Last week they did'nt have what my vet said to get so they were happy to order it for me. It's a nice to walk into the place and know they will do what they can to help me get what I need. read more

Warning--Marek's disease! We just brought back two 5-month old organic pullets last week, and one of them has developed what looks very likely to be Marek's disease. We will have to put her down, and we're just hoping the rest of our flock doesn't come down with it, and I don't recommend buying pullets from here anytime soon. Definitely do not buy organic (unvaccinated) pullets here. They were not very sympathetic when I called to ask them about help with this. I'm sorry, because I did like this place, but I don't think we'll go back. Update 3/2014: little pullet has succumbed and is buried. read more

We went here since it was opened on a Sunday. Prices are a bit steep for a straw hay bale and poultry feed. A bit outside of town but next time I'll buy from town. Prices too steep. read more

Great feed store with good prices and nice hours (open on Sundays). Year-round supply of chicks, chickens and other fowl. Also great selection of chicken coops and runs. The first time I walked in I told the owner that I had recently bought some chicks at a different feed store. He still took a lot of time answering questions about one of the chick's health. I walked out that day without buying something, yet next time I came back he was just as friendly and helpful. Very knowledgeable and friendly. read more

Impressed with the service and patience! Walking in without any knowledge about chickens Guillermo brought sufficient "light" on my new hobby leaving the place confident that I can look after the hen I purchased! Apso, Guillermo chose a truly beautiful Black Australian chicken. Guillermo accomplished all my demands: good looking bird, egg layer, friendly with kids and the other chicks. Thank you Guillermo and Bay Area Feed! read more

I really like going to this feed store as everything is so clean and organized. quick pick ups of hay, chickens, feed for all animals including shots, tack, stuff for cows too. Oh and fence items tooo, water troughs too. just about everything. great family business. read more

Great deal for a bale of Timothy Hay. So much less expensive than buying it by the bag at Petco or some other pet store. This is the real deal. read more

Love this place! When I needed U-Guard for my horse they had it. When I wanted a supplement, they ordered it and had it two days later. I don't know much about chickens, but these look really healthy. The eggs they sell are amazing; the yolks are so yellow. I will make a special trip to the store just for these! read more

Wide variety of products and great, neighborly service. I can get everything I need in one stop. I might be able to get some items less expensively if I shop around, but this place is so convenient, and my time is worth a lot. Plus, I really like supporting local small businesses. I saw a couple of reviews that claimed poor service, which I really don't understand - every time I've been there, they have bent over backwards to be helpful, to carry my items to my car, and to special order items I've inquired about. read more

Cheapest feed store in the area and the only one open on Sundays, need I say more? Shaun is awesome and always extremely helpful as well. Been coming here for years for both feed and live animals. read more
