Animal ID for Market Rabbits and Market Poultry

Animal ID for all market rabbits and market poultry is due in 4-H Online by August 1. Don’t forget to enter your Animal ID in 4-HOnline before starting your fair entries.  You must have your animals ID’d in 4-HOnline so they are available for you to select them in the fair entry program.  Also, this year market poultry and market rabbit sale photos should be taken at home and uploaded with your fair entry.  The committee will not be taking the photos during the fair like they did the last few years.

Market Animal Sale Photos

When making fair entries, market livestock exhibitors must submit a photo of themselves with their market animal to be displayed during the auction.  So be sure to take your photo before starting your fair entries.  This is your opportunity to market your fair animal to the buyers so please dress appropriately in show attire or nice jeans and a nice shirt.  Also, make sure your photo is taken in horizontal or landscape orientation and be sure to take your photo in a well lit area – outdoors is preferable.
