Fluegel's

I have been a vocal fan of Fluegel's in Rosemount to my neighbors and friends for the past 26 years. You see, I own chickens. It's a backyard flock, which was started when my son brought home 6 small chicks from his kindergarten classroom. "They need a nice home", he told me, looking up at me with those kindergarten eyes and holding the box in his little hands. How could I say no to that? So, with that, my adoration and appreciation of Fluegel's officially started. Located in downtown Rosemount, the Fluegel's elevators are a Rosemount landmark. In addition, in the past 5 years, they built a new, much larger building, housing cat, dog, poultry, bird and all form of other farm animal equipment and foods. Yep, I've spent a lot of money on chicken food through the years! haha They have "pet cats" that roam throughout the store, as well as lots of high-quality pet foods and equipment to purchase. I also heat my home principally with wood, so I appreciate Fluegel's split wood offered for sale (delivered with extra fee). It's not the least expensive wood available in my area, but it is well seasoned, ready to burn. Split and sized perfectly. Of course, it goes without saying that the staff of Fluegel's are a wonderful mix of seasoned veterans as well as post-high school grads; all of them are wonderfully knowledgeable, and eager to help me out with answers to my many chicken questions. They are great and helpful workers! So yes, Fluegel's absolutely deserves my 5-star rating. There is ample parking in a dedicated lot, and they can assist with loading up your vehicle with heavy bags of chicken food, hay bales, or whatever dog food you need. I look forward to buying more chicks from them this Spring! The coop is ready. Now all we need is... Springtime.

Hadn't been there for years. No idea why not. Recently e-mailed store with inquiry about kitty litter sold there. Was quickly helped by a mystery staff member, who, by the way, went the extra mile to take pictures of options I may be interested in. Visited store today, finally. Was assisted by mystery employee, James, who remembered our e-mails. He was awesome in assisting me in-store, as well. Got a great new brand, as well as a few other things. Loved my experience & will most definitely become a regular customer. Thanks, James & Fluegel's!!

Really appreciate all staff are still wearing masks after state mandate lifted. There are still plenty of individuals who are not fully vaccinated yet. Customer service is always wonderful. Had a few too many items for me to carry this time and cashier offered to help load them into car. Store is always very clean and organized. Would recommend over and over.

I buy my Guinea pig hay here. Best price in town. They also have a cat petting area where you can sit and chill with some friendly felines. There’s also a metal sculpture out front that is a replica full sized jeep with a mouse standing on top holding a machine gun. I don’t quite understand it and at this point I’m too afraid to ask. Anyways, come for the quality farm and feed supplies, stay for the cat purrs and the rodent mercenaries.

I buy everything here from gifts, to tons of bird seed, to all my dog food, and even fire wood. The last batch of firewood (half pallet) I purchased was wet!! When I brought it home and tried to have a fire, it wouldn't stay lit, was super smokey and had water coming out of the end of the logs. When I was there next buying my dog food, I notified the manager, she rudely said they haven't had any complaints and refused to offer any type of compensation. Not even partial... It's all good as long as you're spending your money there, but watch out if you need any type of refund, or have any problems! A heads up from a formerly loyal, and unhappy customer
