WEIGH-IN RULES |
1. All lambs must be weighed and properly identified to be permitted to exhibit in the Ohio State Fair Market Lamb Show. NO RE-WEIGHS WILL BE PERMITTED.

Lambs weighing 136 to 140 pounds cannot reweigh over 140 pounds on their reweigh weight. Lambs will move up in a class if a lamb is eliminated during reweigh. No lambs will be eliminated on the lower side.
