Welcome to D&M Agricultural Supply

Our History and Our Future...

In 1972, Jim Dickey bought a local chicken hatchery and opened "Dickey's Chickys," supplying chicks and chickens to local farms and ranches. Later, Jim added feed and supplies and, daughter, Janice Morgan, joined the business and became well known as the "Chicken Lady" of Rapid City. Later, they became the area's "Zip Feed" dealer, providing quality, locally produced feeds at reasonable prices. Jim Dickey's son Larry returned to the area after running a successful business in Oregon. Together, he and Janice took over the store in 1994 and became D&M Ag Supply, selling Hubbard feeds when Zip Feeds was bought out.

​

In 2018, Paul and Jana Shankle purchased the store from Larry and Janice and continue to operate it as a family business with their children, Mia and Jack. The "D&M" transitioned from "Dickey and Morgan" to "Dad and Mom's"!

​

Since the first day in business, D&M has been bringing the best selection of products and friendly service to our customers.  We do our best to ensure we have everything you need at a reasonable price, provided to you with friendly, personalized service, carried right to your vehicle!

For 2022, D&M helped customers transition from locally-owned "Pet Giant" by adding a full line of Victor Pet Foods and Fromm Gold Dog food to the existing Taste of the Wild, Diamond, and Nutrisource Pet Foods offerings.
