Picking up Chicks...Ag style


Today FFA students received their broilers for the Washington County Fair.



Each student received 10 banded day old chicks. The bands have assigned numbers to ensure the students return to the fair with the same chicks they were given.


The goal of this project is to see which student is able to grow the best chicken. All of the chicks are the same age and have the same background. The main idea is to have a good environment and keep them eating high quality show feed.

The Washington County Fair is August 31- September 4 this year. (check out their new website)
