Yes and they are judged both for their animal and knowledge.  Wish I could get the prices the kids get at fair ....

4-H is a youth organization that originated with farming and agriculture.  The H's stand for Health, Hands, Heart and Head.  It now includes every 'project' imaginable and the youngster goes through all the steps outlined for a successful completion.  Like with sheep it would be from bottle feeding the lamb, care, grooming, and raising it to market age.  Kids take their livestock to the annual fair where 4-H animals are auctioned and bring good prices.
