I just hopped on here to see how early they open because I get my lamb & rice formula dog food here for my perfectly well cared for non-abused American Bulldogs…& when I read the reviews I felt like I needed to defend this place! Giving a bad review to a small business on the basis that you think idiotic people might misuse things they sell there is like giving any other pet store a bad rap because you believe it’s dog abuse to feed dogs food that is full of by-products that they are allergic to! Anyway, for my part the people here are always friendly and helpful & are the only people in town that have a fair price on food my dogs are not allergic to. They also have great prices on kennel dips & heart worm meds & are knowledgeable about their selection!

I go here for my chicken feed and bedding. They have a good selection(no organic if that’s your thing). The name says it all, it is a feed and seed store. I’ve also started buying my dog food from here as they have a good selection of very high quality dog foods that are a good bit cheaper than their counterparts at the large pet stores. They also have a decent supply of feeders/waterers. Staff is very helpful, answer any and all questions you may have very courteously, and carry anything you buy out to your car for you. If you’ve been in any typical, rural feed and seed store you should know exactly what to expect. It can be a bit hard to find the first time. You’ve just got to get your GPS to take you to the address, down the one-way portion of Brannen, and pull around back of the dilapidated looking little shopping center.

Well, I’ve been here a few times and the 3-star rating I’m giving is a bit complicated. 4 stars for having a good selection of chicken feeds of different price, protein, and quality points. 5 stars for being in town. 1 star for catering to the dog-fighting, dog-chaining set. 2 stars for sub-standard housing for the rabbits and chicks awaiting purchase. Give em some sunshine and fresh air, for gods sake. My purpose for going there is chicken feed. The only close/convenient alternative is Farmer D’s. And while I am willing to fork over the extra $ for the organic, my hens don’t like it as much and waste half of it. Off I go to Standard for their favorite pellets. My hope is that people will come to Standard and buy SOMUCH chicken supply stuff, that Standard decides that stuff is more profitable than the instruments of dog abuse they also sell, and stop selling that crap. Who’s with me?

Great spot if you’re needing to get feed. Great spot if you need seeds. Not for people who are far-removed from farm life, as this place is just like a feed and seed store that you’d find in rural Georgia, just a little bigger with a little more inventory. They also have a great selection of barber line hens during the spring, and the staff is very helpful with advice if you’re a first timer with raising any kind of livestock. I go for the organic laying mesh, it’s a great deal and keeps my birds happy!

Having shopped at Feed & Seed stores for years, this was really disappointing. There is very little signage to help you find the door to the place, which is a bit obnoxious. Add in the disgusting, rusted cages that the rabbits are kept in, being ignored by the staff(3 different people, who were not busy helping others), and the enormous selection of strange dog collars, and you can see why I didn’t find it a friendly place. Here’s my advice: get in, get your stuff, and get out. Don’t have any expectations. The only upside is that I didn’t have to drive to Douglasville, and that they had Equine Pine. On a side note, if you’re near Douglasville, check out Turner’s Feed and Seed. Much better customer service, a very convenient location, and the same types of products(minus the weird dog accessories). It’s a bit redneck, but less so than Standard. Frankly, this place creeped me out. I regret taking my kids with me, even for the few minutes we were there.

This is a no-frills feed store. No A/C, not a lot of signs or info. the staff seemed a little helpful at first, but then it was awesome that they will take whatever bags of feed you buy to your car. They’ve got a good amount of supplies as well, and some plants for sale as well. The prices seem good. The choices are to go here, or trek out to Tractor supply 45 minutes away…

I’ve gone to Standard Feed and Seed often for years. I’ve gone for rabbit, chicken, goat, and dog supplies. I’ve seen quite a few people coming with pits, but it’s not my position to judge or assume that I know if these are beloved pets or not. The selection for more ‘exotic’ in-town farm animal is a little on the slim side. Like others I end up having to drive to Tractor Supply to get quite a few things. I’ve learned, though, to just not ask for anyone’s help. There are staff that are pretty rude and questions don’t seem to be appreciated… but really it just depends on the day and the person… just like any other retail business. I do the majority of the research for things I need online and I’ll call in to see if they have it in stock or if they’re willing to order it. If not then off to Tractor Supply or online ordering I go. Standard’s got the market cornered in Atlanta, great prices, local(ish), chicks and rabbits(when in season) and because it’s a HECK of a lot closer to me than Hiram Ga I’m willing to forgive the dark, creepy interior and the bad attitudes.

I have read the other reviews and believe some consumers are new to agrarian stores. Standard Feed and Seed is not a pet store. It is not a garden shop. It is not a Farmer D’s. It does not determine its clientel. Standard Feed and Seed is just that — they sell feed and seed. I was just there today and got some great advice on starting to raise chickens. The guys were very friendly and no question was looked on as being stupid — although I am sure some were. I ended buying four different breeds of chicks, and will grow them to lay eggs. Standard Feed and Seed had everything I needed along with some good advice. I then spoke to the owner about getting some organic feed in and he is not against it but feels the cost may not be accepted by the public. So if you want it let him know and support it by your purchases. I have been a few Feed and Seed stores in this state and Standard Feed and Seed compares quite well to the ones I have been in. It should only get better.

The place is pretty creepy overall, as soon as you walk in there are chickens and bunnies in cages. But as the guardian of two goats it had everything I need. Hay, sweet feed, bowls, trace mineral salt, etc. They don’t have regular goat chow which means I have to drive all the way to Tractor Supply to get it. They also have dog food and stuff like that but it’s a pretty creepy place to go if you just need regular dog supplies. Although they do have some pretty good size sturdy dog houses that I would recommend.

If you live inside the perimeter and your boyfriend buys you a Nigerian Dwarf goat for your birthday, a trip to Standard Feed & Seed is most likely an inevitability. Alternatively, if you are conducting an investigative report on illegal dog fighting in the ATL, Standard’s bulletin boards announcing pit bull puppys(sic) for sale are probably a pretty good place to start. You can pick up all of your most basic goat care supplies(shredded beet pulp, Sweet PDZ, black oil sunflower seeds, bermuda hay) at Standard. Unfortunately, their selection of feeding systems, grooming equipment, specialized supplements and the like leave a great deal to be desired. Then again, so does everybody else’s. I guess goat husbandry is special-order world. But, if you are in the market for dog collars, especially those with an emphasis on either choking or seriously pimping out your dog, thus assuring him the position of badest-ass bull on the block, check out the wall-o-chain at Standard. Let me warn you though, the whole affair(at least the dog side of it) is a little creepy and may leave you feeling icky inside. Standard also has chickens and rabbits for sale(seasonally and subject to availability). And I believe Standard does stock some«seed,» though I wasn’t in the market for it. At first, I gave Standard three stars, but had to up it to four after visiting Tractor Supply Company in Dallas, GA. More on that later as I am still trying to put the suckiness of the whole experience into words.
