learning many of the dark
room techniques.
Along with her other 4-H
activities, Judy has been
active in the poultry projects
raising capons each year.
“My sister had capons and
I guess it was just the thing
for me to begin in,” the
young lady explained.
“I keep about 75 each year,
some for the family and
some to sell.”
For the past two years,
Judy has had the grand
champion capons in her club.
Because of her interest in
poultry, Judy was asked to
participate on the County 4-H
Poultry Judging team which
competed last year at Penn
State. The team placed
fourth in the contest with
four members working
together for the honor.
Judy explained just what
was involved in practicing
for the contest. “Although I
did know about poultry, we
had to leam the points of
judging for dressed poultry,
live birds, and eggs.”

meet other people,” she
commented.

should get involved in the
county programs.”
