Livestock Exhibitor Code of Conduct:
The Baldwin County Fair is committed to responsible animal care and treatment. This Code of Conduct outlines what is expected of livestock exhibitors in the handling and exhibiting of all animals at our fair. Open livestock show on Saturday, Sept. 24 at 10 a.m. Show animals check in Friday, Sept. 23 or Saturday, Sept. 24. This Code has been developed to meet the following objectives:
• To ensure the health and well-being of all animals at the fair. • To demonstrate an accurate and responsible animal care message to the public. • To maintain the integrity of all livestock competitions, displays and sales. • Livestock and poultry must be transported to and from the fair in accordance with all humane transport regulations and standards. • Loading and unloading must be undertaken using proper equipment and procedures. • All animals must be treated and handled in a responsible manner. The well-being of the animals shall take precedence over the demands of owners, sellers, buyers, organizers, sponsors and officials. • The care of all animals must be as consistent as possible with their normal schedules and standards. High standards of nutrition, health, sanitation, environment and safety must be met at all times. • Livestock should be prepared with proper training, fitting and grooming prior to the fair. Excessive disciplining of animals at the fair is unacceptable. • Exhibitors are expected to provide adequate training for anyone handling their livestock. Untrained individuals, including fair personnel and visitors should not be permitted to handle animals or equipment. • Exhibitors should take every opportunity to enhance public awareness, education and appreciation of proper livestock management and handling practices.
• The judging of all animals will be judged on accomplishments. • All animal exhibits will stay on exhibit for the full duration of the fair. Removal of the animals before the designated dismissal time will result in forfeiture of awards, unless approved by a fair official. • All individuals exhibiting live animals are required to register their exhibits at the livestock registration table on Monday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. the week of the fair. Contestant numbers and stall/pen cards will be assigned at this time. • If the animal does not fall into a specific recognized breed, it will be classified in an “Other” breed category. The same limit applies in this category (*See specific breed limitation) • Stalls/pens, water and bedding will be provided by the management. Each exhibitor will be responsible for furnishing their animal’s water and feed devices and for keeping his/her area clean and neat during the fair. • General care, grooming, cleaning stall and feeding of animals will be the responsibility of the exhibitor with assistance only from a parent, guardian or fellow exhibitor. • Exhibitors and parents offering guidance are expected to demonstrate courtesy and respect toward all livestock, peer exhibitors and all individuals in the fairgrounds. Anyone exhibiting inappropriate behavior may be disqualified and/or asked to leave the premises. • All animals must be the actual property of the exhibitor and registered at the fair under his or her name, not a group or farm name. Should any entry be found to be otherwise entered, any award by judges will be forfeited. • In the event there is but one entry in a class, the placing shall depend on the merit of the entry and the award made at the discretion of the judge. • Each exhibitor is encouraged to fill out a fact sheet about their exhibits to be displayed for additional interesting information about the particular animal or breed.
