On Wednesday, June 26 the Chisholm Trail Technology Center held a seminar on backyard chickens and egg production. OSU Extension’s, Joshua Campbell gave a presentation on everything there is to know about the birds.
Joshua is what is called a Beginning Farmers and Ranchers specialist. His goal is to help people get into agricultural businesses or aid them in their pursuits. During his presentation, Josh talked about egg & meat consumption, the four different categories chickens fall under, how to select your bird, meat production, chicken care, egg washing (or not washing), and much more.
CTTC’s, Daniel Craig, shared about upcoming seminars and workshops that will be happening at the tech center soon. On July 17th they will be having a Viticulture workshop where you can learn all about grapes, grape production, compensation, and start-up costs. Joshua also shared about upcoming events that will be occurring in the surrounding area. Be on the lookout for more event workshops hosted by CTTC.
