health requireMents - u.s. buyers:
Your local or state veteri-
narian should be able to update you concerning the health requirements for
sheep entering your state. All sheep sold must be in compliance with cur-
rent Federal Scrapie Regulations. The sale veterinarian will prepare stan-
dard, interstate health papers for transportation between states, but it is the
buyer’s responsibility to be cognizant of and adhere to the entrance
requirements of his own state. When entry permits are required, this can
often be done prior to your arrival at the sale by contacting your state office.
Your local veterinarian can often help facilitate this process.

Buyer numbers will be used. A buyer number is
valid for all sales and in all barns. A valid picture ID is required to be pre-
se
nted at buyer number sign up. Buyer numbers must be issued in the
exact way that registration papers are to be transferred. If you register ani-
mals in different names, you will be required to get a number for each name
used. A complete name, mailing address and telephone number are
req
uired for all buyers to receive a number. This same information is need-
ed by the veterinarians to write complete health papers.

If you cannot attend the sale in person, a number of indi-
viduals will be able to handle your bids. These include the Sale Manager,
Greg Deakin, the auctioneers, ringmen and judges. All mail bids must have
