2018 4-H Poultry Project Resources

Unfortunately, we still will not have a Poultry Resource Book in 2018.  With that being said, Lucinda Miller and Jane Wright from the State 4-H Office have broaden the collection of resources that our youth can refer to in order to supplement their poultry projects for this year.  Please refer to the following website for the large collection of articles that are broke out by categories: https://ohio4h.org/poultryresources
