What is Chick Chain?

The 4-H Chick Chain Project gives youth hands-on experience in poultry management, health, and nutrition, as well as business and record-keeping skills. Generally, youth who participate in the 4-H Chick Chain Project will receive 1–2-day-old pullets (female chicks). They will feed and care for these pullets for approximately 20 weeks. The chick chain ends at the County 4-H Chick Chain Show and Auction. For specific details about the Davidson County 4-H Chick Chain, please watch the video below.
