Congratulations to our State Poultry Judging team who placed 3rd in the State Poultry Judging Contest on Saturday! The team qualified to compete by placing in the top 4 teams at the Central Region contest in September. The State contest took place on Saturday, October 10 on The University of Tennessee campus in Knoxville. Students compete by evaluating live hens for past egg production and present oral reasons for their placings. In addition, they evaluate and grade market eggs for quality grades on exterior egg quality, broken out egg quality and candling egg quality. Finally, they evaluate and grade whole carcasses, parts identification, parts quality and further processed parts.
The team was comprised of (pictured left to right) Brylie N., Sydney C., Aria B., and Matthew R. We are incredibly proud of this team of students and their families for the work they have done and the skills they have developed. They always represent Williamson County 4-H well in all of their endeavors.
