Check our Hunt County website HERE for direct access to the Major Livestock Show page on our website.

We are updating information as soon as it becomes available from the shows.

Gilt Exhibitors, we want to make you aware of some changes in our upcoming show.

All Purebred gilts must have been farrowed between June 1 and September 15, 2023. In 2024, Purebred gilt classes will be broken and shown by weight.

We will add Hereford gilts to our 2024 Junior Purebred Breeding Gilt Show. We would like to get an idea of how popular this breed may be in our show, but we do not want to prevent anyone from bringing two gilts of breeds currently eligible for scholarships. Therefore, we will allow exhibitors to enter a maximum of three (3) head in the Junior Purebred Gilt Show, BUT AT LEAST ONE (1) AND NO MORE THAN TWO (2) MUST BE A HEREFORD GILT. This will be enforced at Check-in. If anyone is found violating this rule, ALL entries will be disqualified. Hereford Gilts will not be eligible for a scholarship in 2024, but Premiums will be awarded.

Additionally, we will be working with the swine registries to DNA test, at minimum, Breed and Reserve Breed Champions in the Purebred Gilt Show.



Please contact SASSR at 210-225-0575 or livestock@sarodeo.com if you have any questions.
