Reminder 3:
Breeding Ewe Entry Deadline December 10. Ewes must be owned and Tagged by Entry Deadline.
There was an error in the rule book that has been corrected. Rule 1 has for 2011 has always read:
1.
All ewes must be owned by the exhibitor on or before
December 10, 2010. Entries must be made on-line by the county agent for 4-H entries or by the agricultural education teacher for
FFA entries by December 10, 2010.
Farther
down in the rules we did not change the December 15 date for tagging, but naturally the ewes need to be owned and tagged before the entry deadline just like always. This has been corrected in the rule book. (ALWAYS TAG BEFORE YOU ENTER)
Ewe
tags are red and are exactly the same tag as market lamb tags, so you may use leftover red market lamb tags. If your ewe was shown as a market lamb, just use the Red state tag that she already has. Last day to ship Ewe tags is December 3.
