Henderson and Buncombe Counties have partnered together to create the Cross County 4-H Western Pullet Roundup! The program is designed for youth ages 5-18 in Western North Carolina who are interested in raising and showing chicks. The Cross County 4-H Western Pullet Roundup gives youth the opportunity to…
Raise 5 chicks from 2 days old until approximately 4 months old (laying hen breeds)
Participate in training workshops to learn about chick care, husbandry, general health, housing, handling, and showmanship skills.
Show your chickens with other program participants in the final 4-H Pullet Show.
NC State University and N.C. A&T State University work in tandem, along with federal, state and local
governments, to form a strategic partnership called N.C. Cooperative Extension.
