STATE FAIR MARKET & BREEDING LAMB & GOAT TAGS

The State Fair of Texas is requiring validation for registered breeding sheep, registered breeding goats, wether/commercial dams, and wether/commercial does. 

The Texas Lamb and Goat Validation of Texas will be starting the Roll-over Breeding Sheep and breeding goat program.   

Beginning June 1, 2021, registered breeding sheep, registered breeding goats, wether/commercial dams, and wether /commercial does will have 3 total years of eligibility UNLESS A CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP TAKES PLACE.   This will be offered during major show validation as well. Put plainly - if you validate for State Fair during the June 2021 validation period, your validation will be eligible until June 2024, unless a change of ownership occurs during that time-then you must re-validate.  If you validate during the October 2021 validation period for major shows, your validation will be eligible until October 2024, unless a change of ownership occurs during that time-then you must re validate.  

 THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO MARKET LAMBS AND GOATS

Market lambs and market goats validated for the State Fair of Texas MUST RE-VALIDATE for Major shows in October!  This has NOT changed!
