2021 Egg-Cellent Egg Contest Registration

 


4-H Egg-Cellent Egg Contest kicks off in September 2021. This comprehensive program will last through November 2021.

This program is for 4-H members in participating counties with a flock of chickens that are currently laying eggs. Participants may submit up to 2 sets of one dozen eggs, which will be judged for uniformity and interior quality.
Training participation via zoom and other supplemental submissions will be required to complete the program. 4-Hers will learn more about egg production and compete against other members in the participating region.
All participants that successfully complete the project will receive a t-shirt and ribbon (either participation or placing ribbon).

Please note that Robeson County 4-H members will not have to pay the $10 fee.  That fee will be paid for registered participants by the program, thanks to our United Way Funds.  Please note, that if the member does not complete the project they will be asked to reimburse the fee back to our program.

North Carolina Counties participating include: Bladen, Brunswick, Columbus, Craven, Cumberland, Hoke, Jones, Montgomery, New Hanover, Pamlico, Richmond, Robeson, and Sampson.

***Participants must be actively enrolled in the NC 4-H Online Enrollment System*** (This is free and must be updated annually at https://v2.4honline.com/)
