Wild Bird Habitat Store

Doesn't look like much for driving past. Welcoming knowledgeable staff, excellent variety of wild bird feed. It's outstanding that there's a specialty shop in Lincoln that offers food for our neighborhood wildlife. I highly recommend wild bird habitat store!

The store and staff are fantastic--a great selection of all things for wild birds. During the COVID we have still been able to easily get the things we need. The staff has always been friendly and willing to help. They also have a great assortment of pet foods. It is a gem of a specialty shop small business. They deserve a visit and you will find you are quickly a loyal customer.

While I live in north LIncoln, I've been shopping at the south store because of the dog supplies. We said good-bye to our senior dogs in the past two years. However, we adopted a new fur kid who enjoys her chews, toys and treats so I've been exploring what seems like a growing dog section at Arnie's. I was buying dog food from a national chain with a location not far from my home. A few weeks ago, my husband forgot to tell me we were low on food. So when I checked the chain's website, both stores said they were out of the food in the size I buy. Google said Arnie's carried the food. I called to check that it was in-stock, yes and coincidentally same price as chain store. I was excited to pick up a bag before the store closed. Two days later, when husband was out of town, I got the opened bag out and noticed the kibble was not the same. It was puppy food. The vet had told us not to feed her puppy food because it was higher in calories. So I went to the store to buy a bag of dog food. I asked to check the bag as the man picked it up from the shelf to take to the counter. When I explained why, Katie said they would exchange the bag that I had gotten in error. She wanted us to be happy with the purchase. I mentioned I lived closer to the north store and she said if I give them a day or two notice, they will bring the food to the north location where I can buy it. She also mentioned they have a frequent food buyer's program. Yes, I signed up! The following day, I returned the opened puppy food to the north store. And I'm picking up another bag of dog food at the north store. While it's more convenient, I miss looking at the dog chews and toys. Because you can never have too many with a young german shepherd.

I wish I could put 0 stars. My expectations going in there were very high and was excited to see some birds!! But when I walked in I shortly realized there WAS NO ACTUAL BIRDS.. If your gonna have wild bird in your store name, make sure to specify it's just the habitat no animals. Majorly disappointed!! Here's a tip for the store, have actual birds or just don't even continue to have the store be open.

To expensive, I drove 70 miles to visit the store. A lot of unique items, but I will not go back!

Great selection of feeders and accessories, seed and knowledge (and pet supplies). One of the things I really appreciate is the way they listen to what my situation is and steer me in the right direction without trying to sell me something I don't need. Incredibly knowledgeable and helpful staff.

I just stopped in this week, because I heard that they now have dog food. The person in charge of the dog side was very helpful, and there pricing on dog food is very competitive with the stores, and Chewy.com. It was a good experience. I will go back
