Bring animals to be weighed, tagged or tattooed. Bring a halter and rope to lead your animal across the scale.

Extension staff will have EID Tags ($3 each), taggers, ID Sheets, DNA Envelopes, and other 4-H resources on hand.

Participation at weigh day is required only if you wish to enter the Market Beef Rate of Gain Class in the Beef Show at the 2024 Dodge County Fair.
This event is a great way to get your animals tagged, ID’ed and establish a starting weight at the beginning of the year – even if you don’t plan to enter your animal at the fair!

Your animal will be weighed again during Market Beef Check-In at the Dodge County Fair. The Top 10 will receive awards and premiums.
