N.C. Cooperative Extension’s North Central District (NCD), comprised of 20 counties, hosts an annual poultry project for 4-H members ages 5-18 to help teach youth responsibility, animal husbandry, and money management. This project is an opportunity for youth to learn more about the livestock industry through raising and showing laying hens. Once registered, youth must attend required training about raising chicks. They then receive five-week-old chicks that they raise and nurture. They must complete a project record book detailing what they learned, how they cared for their chickens, and document their experience, in order to participate in the show. This is a long-term project, encompassing six months from start to finish, plus the youth retain ownership of the hens at the project completion.

The NCD 4-H Poultry Show was held on Saturday, March 15 at the Forsyth County Center. Thirteen 4-H members from seven counties participated in the show. Youth competed in showmanship, where they presented one hen to the judge. The judge asked them questions about their bird, their care of the bird, bird health, anatomy, etc. Youth also competed in a breed show. There were two breeds in the show:  New Hampshire and Silver Laced Wyandottes. All birds were the same age. The judge examined a pen of three birds and judged the birds on production, or laying ability on that day. The judge for the show was Mark Paylor, NCA&T Poultry Unit Coordinator.

Below is a list of the placings in showmanship and our breed grand and reserve champions. Also listed are the project record book winners.
