Entering exhibits into Fair Entry

Tips and Video Tutorials – Animals at the Fair 

When you take ownership of animal, please add animals into 4-H Online – these animals will then export into Fair Entry when you register for Fair.

Please pay attention to those animals that you own for multiple years  – they can be reactivated in your profile. Market animals generally are only listed for one year.

Step 1 – Register animal in 4-H Online with details about name, tattoos, tags, type/breed. You will do this when you purchase animal or it is born. Some animals will be market animals and only added for one year; others may show same animal for many years.

Step 2 – Sign into Fair Entry under child’s name and add entries using the drop-down menus.  When you have the chance to “add animal” click on that button.

You then have the option to add animal from 4-H Online, or register a new animal in Fair Entry.  Then click on the appropriate name/tag or tattoo for that entry.

Adding the animal is not adding classes/lots to your Fair Entry invoice. You will need to add the following classes if showing animals:

1. Herdsmanship – this is not in the animal departments of Fair Entry. You will have to add these separately if you are showing an animal. Choose appropriate department, click Barn, submit.
2. Judging – this is not in the animal sections of Fair Entry. You will need to add it separately as with Herdsmanship.
3. Showmanship – click on your animal department, choose Showmanship – click on appropriate 4-H age department for youth. Add in the animal name/tag/information for the animal you will be showing as a competitor during your showmanship at the Fair.
4. Animal/Type and Breed – You will choose an animal to do showmanship with, but you will also need to add this class and add in the information about your animal. You can use the same feature listed above to import that information about your animal from 4-H Online.  If you have multiple animals you are bringing to be judged, you will do this for each animal.
