Rules for County Show:

Broilers

 Only healthy birds will be allowed to enter competition. Birds will be checked for diseases and parasites before they are placed by superintendent. Broilers will be bought from an approved hatchery and won’t be tested. Health papers are not required.  The entries and fees will be due at the Lamb and Goat validation, October 17, 2016 between 4:00 and 7:00 pm.

All exhibitors must be present for the judging. Only the judge and the superintendent will be allowed in the judging arena along with exhibitor and holder(s). Upon conclusion of judging, the public may then view birds and results.

All broilers will be received by exhibitors (6) weeks prior to show and are to be placed on feed at that time.

Each broiler exhibitor will be required to start the project with 25 birds. However, if there is more than one child in a family ordering chickens, the family does not have to order 25 birds for each child.

Each broiler exhibitor will be able to enter one pen of broilers which consists of 3 uniform birds.

Exhibitors of Grand and Reserve Grand Champion Pens of Broilers must sell at the Auction. There will be a maximum of 50% of all pens of broilers, designated to be Sale quality by the official judge, to sell in the Auction. Any pen of broilers pulled from the Sale will not replace in the sale by the next highest placing pen of broilers.

Exhibitors will be responsible for getting their broilers to the Premium Sale.

Exhibitors may bring only one (1) broiler to the sale.
