As members of the Carter County 4-H program, you have the opportunity to participate in a number of different livestock-related opportunities, from Chick Chain Project group to showing sheep at local and statewide contests. If you have livestock and are interested in showing opportunities, please let us know and we can provide additional information.

If you don’t have livestock, that’s ok! We still offer opportunities for judging teams. Your 4-H agent will teach you the ins and outs of what it takes to successfully compete in local, regional and state poultry judging contests. Even better, there is no cost to participate in these opportunities! For more information on these programs, please fill out the form below and return to our office.
