The 4-H Chick Chain project is open to students in grades 4-12. A 4-H Chick Chain is an organized group of children who are raising chickens for show and sale in order to learn more about the business side of the livestock industry. Through the 4-H program, children will raise 20 chicks. Six months later each participant will return with 5 of those chick to the 4-H Show and Sale. Any proceeds from the sale will return to the 4-Her.
