Chief Steward: Miss G Franklin, Tanners Place, Michaelchurch Escley, Herefordshire. Chief Milk Steward: Mr M Elphick, 2 Fforddd Aneurin, Pontyberem, Llanelli, Sir Gaerfyrddin.

Both Shows are held under the Rules, Regulations and Recognition of the British Goat Society. All exhibits must be registered with the BGS as in the ownership and in the name of the exhibitor, the registered name and number being quoted on the entry form. (Also the kidding date for goats in milk.) All goats in milk must be kidded or aborted a minimum of 30 days previous to the date of the Show. No pregnant goat shall be admitted to the Showground. In the event of an unforeseen kidding or abortion, the goat must be isolated immediately. Full details of the goat, exhibitor and action taken, must be reported in writing to the BGS Secretary immediately after the show.

Please note that if kiddings occur in animals from premises not registered under the scrapie monitoring scheme or category IV of the Sheep and Goat Health Scheme, the scrapie status of all animals at the unsegregated show/sale and premises (if those animals return) may be jeopardised. To try to limit the effect of such kiddings or abortions, the show secretary should report them immediately to the local DVM to allow a visit to the showground by an Animal Health/Veterinary Officer who can then conduct an enquiry and more easily identify the animals put at risk.

HEALTH STATUS FOR BOTH SHOWS a) SCRAPIE AND B G S MONITORED HERDS A current certificate must be included with entries. b) ALL OTHER GOATS Entries will be restricted to goats from herds that are whole herd negative CAE tested within twelve months of the date of the show.

There will be a minimum two metre gap, between goats from (a) and (b).

Exhibitors are advised that milk that has been through the communal weigh bucket should not be fed to kids, as this has been a factor in the spread of CAE.

UNCERTIFIED AND UNENTERED GOATS WILL NOT BE PERMITTED ONTO THE SHOWGROUND

ENTRY FEES & PRIZE MONEY:-
