Backyard Chickens
About This Event
Thinking about raising chickens?
Backyard hens are more than just egg-layers—they’re colorful, entertaining additions to your yard that help with composting and pest control, too! Representatives from the NC State Poultry Extension will teach the basics of chicken keeping, from daily care to using litter as organic fertilizer. Whether you're just curious or ready to start your flock, this will give you a fun and practical intro to life with chickens.
