We have a new opportunity for youth with backyard chicken flocks! The Egg-Cellent Egg Contest is a program where youth collect 2 dozen (24) eggs from their chickens and submit them for judging. Participants do not need to be present at judging. Eggs need to be turned in to your county Livestock or 4-H agent, and the eggs will be delivered to Raleigh for judging. The participants will be notified of placing in the contest! If you have any questions, your county Livestock or 4-H agent will be happy to answer them.
