All market sheep, goats (meat and dairy market), and swine must come to the tagging event at the fairgrounds to exhibit at the Scotts Bluff County Fair.

Swine will NOT be unloaded. Staff and volunteers will enter trailers to tag and disinfect equipment between trailers. Swine will be tagged on the south side of the Event Center. Families are welcome to tag their animals at home and then bring them to the tag-in for verification. Tags are $1 each for county only or $3 for EID tags.

Market Sheep and Market Goats (meat and dairy market) will be IDed and weighed at the Sheep and Goat Barn located north of the Pavilion. Sheep and goats should be led to the southeast corner of the barn. Scrapies tags are the form of identification for sheep and goats.

If you plan to show Swine, Goats or Sheep at State Fair, you must submit a DNA sample from your animal and use an EID tag for swine ($3) and scrapies tags for goats and sheep. Ask for a DNA kit at tag-in. Families must enter DNA data into the State Fair website and pay the fee per animal by June 15. If you
have any questions, please contact us at 632-1480.

If we have to postpone due to weather, we will have KNEB announce it.
