Since moving from up North a couple of years ago, where we get wonderful hay (& our horses were on…read moreactual pasture except in winter), J&B is the only place we trust getting hay from for our competition horses - best coastal, fresh alfalfa, nice Timothy.

I adopted a kitten a few days ago, and the rescue center recommended using equine pellets as…read morelitter, which you can find at a feed or tractor store. Equine pellets are suggested because they reduce the risk of asthma, upper respiratory infections, bowel obstructions, and chemical exposure, while also being environmentally friendly. I had never heard of a feed store before, so I had to Google one within the vicinity. J&B Feed & Hay came up with stellar reviews and so I decided to make the drive to Menchaca. When I arrived, the store was located on a farm with a dirt road leading up to it. I found what I needed, and the cashier not only rang me up but also helped load 80 pounds of pellets (40 lbs cost only $6 compared to the 30 lbs of litter being $20) into my trunk. I'm not sure if I'll stick with pellets for my kitten, but if I do--or if I ever decide to get any farm animals--I'll easily return.

I stopped into Callahan's for a random reason: because Webkinz are back? As an avid collector as a…read morekid, I had to grab one to relive my childhood my parents raised me on. They had a pretty decent stock as elsewhere has been selling rapidly. There's a lot going on at Callahan's as that place is huge. The only issue I had while I was there was there was only one lady working the cash register and there was a good 5+ of us waiting in line at a certain point, and it was moving at a snail's pace. Just that lunch rush I guess. I'll be back maybe for more Webkinz, I guess. RIYL: Feed and thing

I wish I still had my potbelly piggy, Emma (she was my beloved pet in the 90s). This would be a…read morespot for her to get kibble and other supplies. I like coming here because it's got that old school general store feel. You know, what it must have been like back in the days of cowboys, dirt roads, and small, one-horse towns. They have just about everything from western clothing to hay, hammers, seeds, household stuff, and more. I had been on the search for a specific style of plant pot for an urban garden project I was working on. I searched high & low looking for what I wanted and couldn't find it. That is, until I tried Callahan's. I went in on a whim, not really looking for said pot, but looking around in general. And to my surprise, there it was! The piece I had been looking for. The fluorescent store lighting reflected around it like a glorious and spectacular display, calling my name. "Buy me, Karla, buy me"...and that I did. Obviously, I left happy. All in all, it's a cool place to check out and to find things you need and things you never knew you needed. Service is pretty great too. Everyone is super friendly.

I live in Dripping Springs, and this is one of my favorite stores. They have beautiful plants and a…read moregood selection of products for my obsession with feeding and watching the wild birds in our area. The staff are friendly and helpful. It's dog friendly, and they even have treats for your pet up front at the checkout stand. They have regular sales, and their prices are competitive on bird seed, which has gotten quite expensive everywhere. Some friends of mine were visiting from out of state and from east Texas, and they specifically asked to go there. They found items they loved and bought them, and we had a good time shopping together there. I especially enjoy this time of year when they have baby chicks. I haven't bought dog food here, but they have a huge selection, so I'll probably check it out the next time I visit.

I have been a long time customer of this Patti store. And while most of the employees are amazing,…read moreshipping and receiving has been a night for the last year, after 5 years of steady orders. They cancel my order after it arrives and put the product on the shelves, so I'm forced to purchase off the shelves if I am lucky to make it there before someone else buys it. After trying repeatedly to work this issue out, I find out my orders are just getting canceled every time. It's sad but I'll be giving my business to my local feed store instead.

The critters seemed happy and thriving.
