⚠️ Chick-season note: Baby-chick season peaks Feb–May. It's late July, so live chicks are hit-or-miss everywhere right now. Callahan's is your best bet for out-of-season stock, but always call before driving out — availability changes weekly and I couldn't confirm live in-store inventory for this specific Saturday.
🚫 No longer open: Buck Moore Feed & Pet Supply (5237 N Lamar) — this longtime Austin feed store has permanently closed. Removed from the list.
