The 4-H Chick Chain project allows 4th-12th grade 4-H’ers to gain skills in responsibility and management by raising baby chicks into layer hens.
Chick Chain orders are taken each year in January, and pullets usually arrive in early April. Participating 4-H’ers complete their project by returning three of their best laying hens to the annual Chick Chain Show & Sale in the fall (September or October).
For more information about the Chick Chain program, call 615-735-2900.
