This time of year with the Youth Fairs and Livestock Shows going on sure bring back my 4-H days!
I raised calves, lambs and chickens!
These adorable chickens that I'm struggling to hold were the show's
"Grand Champion Chickens!"
Get this, I got $50.00 a pound for these little chickens!

Times in 4-H were the best!
This is great, Nancy! I think you were lucky to participate in 4-H; that's such a great activity for young people. My husband and I LOVE to visit the agricultural exhibits at our local fair in the fall. I love the sheep and young lambs, the Border Collie demonstration, and the chickens. :) Congrats on raising the champion chickens!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great day!

That must have been fun. Growing up in the city we were not exposed to 4H.

ooohhhh you were/are adorable!! Looks like you really have your hands full, sounds like a fun time in your life!!
ReplyDeleteI was in 4-H too:) Of course, I lived on a farm and loved it that we had animals all around! You are TOO cute holding those chicks:) Enjoy your Sunday dear Nancy, HUGS~)
ReplyDeleteThey were big chickens..I'd be too attached to them..
ReplyDeleteThat's so neat! We didn't have 4H at my school - or maybe I was unaware. My first teaching job was in a small town and 4H was very important there. I was so impressed by how hard the kids worked to raise their animals. Then at the end of the season, there was an auction and the town's people bought the animals in the auction and the kids got the money for college. The neat part was that the kids actually kept their animals. :) Is that how it always is?
ReplyDeleteLearn something every day . . . look at you!
ReplyDelete...and with 4H, the memories and learning experiences are tops!! What a sweet photo...love the smile!!
