Old Mill Feed & Garden hosts Chick Day

The Hendersen family has organized this annual chicken-keeping event at their store in Dallas for several years. They've incorporated educational tools, resources, and helpful products to help those interested in raising chickens at home.

Here's a note about Chick Day from co-owner of Old Mill Feed & Garden, Jon Hendersen:

"Chick Day at Old Mill Feed & Garden is “The Poultry Event of the Year.” This year, join us in welcoming Salem residents to the flock of chicken owners.

We begin taking reservations for chicks in January. A list of choices is posted at our store and on our website, oldmillfeed.com. By Chick Day, 75% or more of our available chicks have been reserved. On Chick Day, customers hand-select their chicks with the help of Chick Day volunteers. Once they have chosen their new family members, the proud parents are given a brief “Baby Chick Care” handout and can speak one-on-one with experienced chick owners who guide them through the chick-raising process. Feeders, waterers, brood lamps, bedding, feed, supplies, and coops are all available in the store.
