My town's 4-H club is ONLY horses

otherwise DD would be in it. There is talk about starting something through the local grange.

You should either ask that club if you can start a Poultry Project within their club, or start your own club! Then you can decide if your club is poultry only or multiple projects. My DH is our Poultry Leader, and it's really not hard to do or a big time commitment. Contact your local county extension office and they can send you the info you need to do either.

The Evergreen Fairgrounds in Monroe is another option to show at and it runs from August 25-September 5th. They start with a 4-H show, and then have an Open Class show follow. Here is the Exhibitor Information page: http://www.evergreenfair.org/competitive-exhibitors.asp

4-H entries close August 1st, Open Class close 8/21

Thanks! I'll do that. I hadn't even thought we could start are own.

My girls LOVE banana!

so do mine.. in fact the only thing they don't seem to eat is celery. Or the sweet peppper skins, after they eat the seeds off the stem thing (you know, the part you throw away..) they leave it alone. My goats were eating cutie orange peels the other day. talk about sweet breath. hahahaha

NONE of my many breeds will eat carrots, sliced, stewed in soup, grated in salad, or otherwise.
They all leave the carrots behind.

Oh, that's *nice*

Too bad it's further than my F250 can be depended on going.

I managed to get a bit done on the coop today- the bottom part of the siding on the north side. And we flipped the plywood so I can get to the nails, YAY!

Or, you know: not yay. I still wish I could cut the stuff by the power of my incisive wit, or something.
