Ok this is what we are wanting!!! We have to go to the county ext to sign up. Do you know anything else about it and what I can expect?? She wants to show a goat or a chicken.
Most of it really varies by the county and what is available. They give the kid a sheet to mark down areas of interest. There are tons of things...everything from baking, shooting, scrap-booking, leather, photography, little animals, cattle, horses, yup everything
Depending on county depends on what is done...out here if it isn't cows, sheep, or pigs it doesn't count...we get two sell places for goats...unless not enough cattle show up then we get a couple fo those slots. There will be monthly meetings and local chapter meeting for your particular group you end up with...usually with a school, or some organiation sponsors it (gives a place to meet)
Lot of opportunity for a kid to get involved at different levels...local, county, region, state, national...great when they let the kids run it and the older ones are being leaders and the sponsors only take care of the logistics and such
That sounds like something that she would really enjoy. She is her daddy's girl and loves animals. We have horses but I don't think they are show quality. Pleanty of thing she can show, hopefully I can get some nice birds out of this hatch if I didn't screw it up.
