Market Animal Weight Requirements

We are asking that all market animals be in the same weight range as they would have been for fair. The expectation still is that your animal would be in the weight ranges by July 7, 2020. I have included the weight information below for anyone who needs to be refreshed on the ranges.

Beef - 1100 lbs to 1500 lbs
Swine - 225 lbs to 300 lbs
Sheep - 105 lbs to 160 lbs
Goats - 60 lbs to 120 lbs
Market Rabbits - 4-5 1/2 lbs each, under 75 days of age
Market Poultry - 4+ lbs each, No more than 50 days of age
Market Turkeys - Hens at least 13 lbs, Toms at least 20 lbs, 16-18 weeks of age

The weight requirements are still expected so we can provide our buyers with a market ready project at the time of the auction. Also, when the buyers are purchasing the animals they are expecting them to be in the same weight range they are accustomed to.
