6. The superintendent of a division may request the judge in his division to state the reasons for awards if such a request is made by an exhibitor or spectator.

7. The decision of the judges shall be final in all cases except where mistake, fraud, or misrepresenting not discovered at the time the award is made, is apparent. In such cases the Board of Directors' decision is final.

Health Requirements Livestock known by the exhibitor to have an infectious, communicable disease or to have been exposed to an infectious, communicable disease, or to be from a quarantined herd or flock may not be entered in the exhibition. Warts and ringworm are considered communicable diseases.

Therefore, livestock affected by these diseases cannot be exhibited. A statement from a veterinarian that an animal is being treated for these diseases is not acceptable.

All livestock may be inspected by the Official Veterinarian on the opening day of the exhibition, and daily during the exhibition. The Official Veterinarian will order the immediate removal to a quarantine facility or removal from the exhibition premises of any livestock with symptoms of infectious or communicable diseases. Animals placed in a quarantine facility must remain there until removed from the exhibition premises. They may not enter a show ring.

This includes livestock with warts or ringworm.
