All
Cochise County poultry raisers are eligible to exhibit and compete.
Birds which are unsightly, vermin ridden, or show evidence of
disease will be rejected. Any
bird deemed unworthy of placement will not be given an award.
To
all exhibitors showing poultry, pigeons and rabbits:
1.
No exhibitor shall release birds at the Fairground.
2.
No exhibit is to be sold until the last day of the Fair.
Anyone selling at the Fair will be held responsible to see that
the buyer receives what he bought.
These transactions are strictly between buyers and sellers.
3.
Any violation of these rules will forfeit the exhibitor’s
privilege to show the following year.
The
poultry show will be held under the rules of the American Poultry
Association. The American
Standard of Perfection, published by the American Poultry Association,
will be used as a reference. Judging
will commence at 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, September 28, 2000.

Entry forms may be obtained from the Department Superintendents
or the Fairgrounds’ General Office and must be on file before the
closing date. No
exceptions. All birds
must be identified by easily readable, numbered leg bands attached by
the owner. These bands
should be of sturdy plastic or metal.
Leg band numbers are to be on entry blanks for each bird.
Birds exhibited in trios may not compete for single prizes, and
birds exhibited singly may not compete for trio prizes, but all birds
are eligible for Championship Award.
