Last weekend, students from around North Carolina participated in a number of poultry 4-H events and competitions, from 4-H poultry judging to Avian Bowl to outdoor cookery. Along the way, the developed skills in judgement and reasoning, public speaking, food safety and preparation and teamwork.

We’re so proud of all the participants and winners who exemplified the 4-H motto of learning while doing!

4-H Poultry Judging (July 20)

Poultry judging tests students’ ability to judge the quality of live poultry, poultry pieces and eggs. It requires them to give a brief presentation of their reasoning to a judge.

The Chatham County Peeps won the Senior competition and will represent North Carolina at the national competition in November. Their trip to Louisville, KY is paid as part of their win and each team member will receive college scholarship money. Well done, Peeps!
