All poultry under five months of age must have originated directly from flocks or hatcheries that have an official pullorum-typhoid clean rating. All New Hampshire poultry over five months of age must be tested by the NH Department of Agriculture within a year from the date of exhibition and be declared pullorum-typhoid clean. Each bird so exhibited must bear an official pullorum leg band. All water fowl are exempt from the pullorum-typhoid clean ring.
No animals will be accepted that show any signs of being diseased. Any diseased animal found in the building will be removed. The owner will be contacted to remove the diseased animal. If not removed the animal will be disposed.
All prizes awarded according to merit. One of a kind entries will be grouped to give definite competitions. Decision of the judges will be final.
Please use the Livestock Entry form located on the website at “Download Forms” or in the Exhibitors Handbook. Entries must be received by the Fair office by September 30th, of the current year, so that cages can be pre-assigned and getting exhibits into the barn will go smoothly.
