Tractor Supply Co. — Local services in Yreka

I recently purchased chicks from this store with the goal of having eggs to eat eventually (and maybe just some fun companions). This has been my first experience raising chickens.

I purchased all the supplies I needed from this store and all seemed to be going well until recently. The first issue I encountered was that I was sold the incorrect food when it came time to replace my first bag of feed. I wasn't mad when I realized it, but definitely annoyed. I live 20 minutes outside of town and it was inconvenient. I honestly should have paid more attention, but I assumed that the employee I spoke to knew what he was talking about since he directed me to a certain kind of food with such confidence.

Today, I was notified that I was sold meat chickens. This means that this particular bird was not meant to live long and I would definitely not have any eggs. Once again, I had been mislead. When I purchased the chicks, I had questioned the employee about the breed. I wanted to confirm that I was purchasing chickens for laying. The employee (a different employee from the "wrong food" employee) verified that the chicks I was purchasing were to be good layers.

The one star is not about what is available at this store. They have all the supplies you could possibly need for your animals. I appreciate that they refunded me for the purchase of the chicks, but that really doesn't fix the fact that I've spent a significant amount of money on these birds so far and they could die now at any moment. I was notified that they would not be getting another shipment of chicks so I will be taking my business elsewhere from now on.

I wouldn't have been mad if either of those employees had told me that they did not have an answer for me. If you don't know, that's ok. If you have to go ask someone, that's ok. I don't expect an employee to have all the answers, but I DO expect honesty and to be given accurate information. THAT'S...

One of my favorite tractor supplies to deliver to, the scenery is beautiful along the route. Tue employees at this tractor supply are very polite and they are hard working. They get the job done without any issues. I’m in and out, even when the distribution center that loads the trailers load them terribly, and the load is shifted all over the trailer due to piss poor loading. The Recieving personnel get rite on it, even though I feel tractor supply needs another distribution center to service tue 11 western United States and they need to learn to lead trailers more securely, like many freight shipping companies that load trailers and use air bags to secure the load from shifting, load shifts are nature of tue beast when the loaders don’t secure the loads properly. Thumbs up to the Recieving at this tractor supply, they should all get a raise here for having to deal with the messes they deal with due to piss...

I visit this store often to buy cat food. For the past year or two I have noticed a definite lack of product on the shelves. Oh, the expensive stuff is there....but the less expensive brands are not on the shelf. This is both the dry sacks and the boxes of canned. I have had to ask for someone to check the back to see if they have any. They always have a supply! However, it is not on the floor. Why? Once in a while would be one thing, but this happens each time I go, I have to ask someone to look. I go to this store because it is convenient to my residence and takes less time. The food is more expensive than Walmart, but saves me the trip. Empty shelves when there is product available should be the exception. I don't feel that it's because of employee shortage as there were 2 ladies unoccupied today when I shopped and were readily available...
