Pet competitions at Lincoln County Fair amuses crowd

Kids had fun dressing up with their pets, showing them off and racing chickens for 4-H at the Lincoln County Fair Friday afternoon.

Starting with companion animals, kids were encouraged to bring in their pets, from cats to lizards, and tell judges what they knew about the animal they were taking care of.

Then there was the dog costume competition, where kids were judged by the way they dressed up their dog and themselves.

Finally came chicken agility, the highlight of the night.

Three brave chicken trainers dragged their chickens on a leash through a designated obstacle course.

The winners of these competitions for the 2024 Lincoln County Fair were:

Champion — Companion Animal

Reserve Champion — Companion Animal

Reserve Champion — Dog Costume

Chicken Agility — First Place

Chicken Agility — Second Place

Chicken Agility — Third Place
