Kan. The poultry barn usually is one of the more popular attractions at the Kansas State Fair.
Visitors never seem to lose interest in seeing the different chickens, ducks, geese, and pigeons.
Neither does Scott Beyer. His interest in poultry can be traced to his 4-H experiences. He grew up in Galveston, Tex., where his parents operated a small cow-calf operation. When he joined 4-H, Beyer chose a steer, a lamb and some chickens as projects. He said that he thought chickens would be the easiest, but found out otherwise.
