Record Books
All 4-H Chick Chain members will turn in a record book.
A project book is a way for you to document your experience and also keep financial and informational records about your projects. You should work on your record book from the day you purchase or hatch your chicks. Items to keep or make for your record book include:
receipts for feed
receipts for supplies you purchase
pictures throughout your project
