It is an exciting time of year at Eastern Sierra Feed. January is when we start getting our first orders of new Chicks in for the season.
Always fun to have the sounds of baby chicks in the store and seeing our friends who love raising their own chickens.

This week at the store we will be receiving our first orders of Chicks from Ideal Poultry.
