If you're near Broadway, stop by and check out the 4-H incubator at the Village Library and learn about the growth and development of a chicken! We're hoping for a hatch date of October 11-12, so make sure you pop in to check out the chicks once they hatch that week, too! 🐣

We're very excited to share that Village Library in Broadway has its very own Embryology Station! This educational initiative is brought to MRL by the Virginia Cooperative Extension’s 4-H office to educate patrons about the life cycle of chickens. 🐣🐥

For the next few weeks, you will be able to watch up close as chicks go through their 21-day life cycle from eggs to hatchlings. Branch manager Barbara Andes says Village Library is "really looking forward to having a front-row seat as we witness these amazing real-life transformations!"

4-H youth and adults have been showing animals, working shifts in the 4-H food booths, participating in animal obstacle courses, and of course having some fun in between!

Our 4-H’ers have been busy these first few days of the fair. From the show rings and barns to the food booths, our 4-H’ers, club leaders, and volunteers have been all over the fairgrounds! 🍀 Tomorrow we’ll see many of them in the show ring at the market goat show at 9:00 AM!
