The 4-H Poultry Program in Tennessee offers youth the opportunity to learn valuable skills through raising, exhibiting, and judging poultry. Participants gain hands-on experience in poultry care, breeding, and management while developing responsibility and leadership. Whether showing chickens, turkeys, or other poultry, youth are challenged with real-life experiences that teach them about the industry. This program provides a fun and educational environment for young people to explore their passion for poultry!
Shows and Events
From county fairs to regional and state-level events, 4-H members have plenty of opportunities to showcase their poultry projects throughout the year. Whether it’s raising chickens through the Chick Chain program or competing in poultry judging contests, participating in these events allows youth to demonstrate their knowledge and the hard work they’ve put into their projects.
