Bastrop Area Livestock Show Hog, Lamb, Goat, Breeding Swine and Heifer Validation

Validation of market and breeding hogs, market lambs, market goats and breeding heifers for the Bastrop Area Livestock Show will be held December 3, 2011 from 8 to 10 a.m. at the Bastrop Show Barn.  Entry fees are $15 per entry.  Market lambs, goats and hogs will be eartagged and entry fees paid during validation.  If a market lamb, goat or hog has been validated for major shows, the major show validation tag will be accepted in lieu of hauling the animal to Bastrop show validation, but the exhibitor and a parent must be present to pay entry fees and submit entry forms.  If animals are not validated for major shows, entry fees must be paid and the animal must be presented by the exhibitor at Bastrop Show validation.  Exhibitors and a parent must be present at validation day or exhibitor will not be allowed to validate or show the animal in the show.

Breeding swine do not have to be validated to show unless there is a possibility they will also be shown in the market show, but entry fees must be paid on Dec. 3 during validation.  Entry cards and fees must be paid on beef heifers at this time (you do not have to bring heifers to the show barn).  If you have questions, call the Extension office.
