All breeding heifers will be born between January 1 and December 31, previous year.
Heifers shown in this division cannot be shown in any Market Beef class.
For all purebred and commercial heifers the tattoo, ear that tattoo is in, birthdate, breed,
and registry number of animal is entered in 4-H Online on or before May 15. No
paper forms will be accepted from 4-H members. An exhibitor may enter a maximum
of three (3) head of breeding beef heifers. The calfhood vaccination tattoo is not
acceptable identification.
8.
Registration and transfer papers, ear tattoos, and health papers will be checked
on all registered and commercial heifers as they go through the chute and are
weighed. Original registration papers must be provided (no copies or faxes will be
accepted). Applications for registration will not be accepted. Animals whose
registrations are not approved will be shown in the commercial heifer class.
9.
Breeding heifers that have illegible tattoos or fresh tattoos will not be allowed to show
in the registered breeding beef heifer classes but may show in the commercial breeding
heifer class.
10. All heifers will be judged from the standpoint of type, quality, conformation, and
breed characteristics (when applicable), with future usefulness as a breeding cow
considered. Judges will use weight per day of age as their measure of performance
(except commercial heifer).
11. Classes in each breed will be determined after all entries are in and based on total
number shown.
12. The youngest class will be shown first with heifers put in order of age as the class
starts—with the youngest animal first.
13. Entries will be placed numerically as well as in ribbon groups.
14. A Supreme Breeding Heifer Champion and Reserve Champion will be selected from
the champion of each breed shown in the Breeding Heifer Show and the Commercial
Breeding Champion.
