Collapse ▲On the last day of the 2024 NC State Fair, the annual Sale of Champions Livestock Auction happens in the Jim Graham Building which is the culminating event of all the best youth food animals raised and shown at the North Carolina State Fair. Two of the animals sold at the Sale of Champions were the Grand and Reserve turkey hens. These 33 lb hens competed their way through 200 birds at the 2024 NC State Fair Youth Market Turkey Show to be top of the roost.
