Supporting the Idaho County
4-H/FFA Market Animal Sale

Buying an animal at the Idaho County Fair Sale is simple—you bid during the sale, and the highest bidder wins

Purchase Options

  1. Take Home
    Pay the full purchase price, then load and take the animal home after the sale.
  2. Butcher/Process
    Pay the full purchase price and choose a meat processor. After the sale, the animal is shipped to your selected processor.
    You’ll need to contact them to cut instructions and processing costs. (See the included flyer for local processors.)
  3. Turn the Animal
    If you don’t want to keep or process the animal, you can “turn” it back to the floor price buyer.
    You pay the difference between your bid and the floor price.
    Example:
    Bid: $2.00/lb
    Floor price: $0.50/lb
    Your cost: $1.50/lb
    The floor price buyer takes possession of the animal.

Add-On

Another way to provide support would be to do an Add-On. An add-on is a monetary contribution you can give to support a
youth exhibitor, without bidding on or purchasing the animal. Add-ons are a great way to support youth who have invested
time, effort, and expense into raising their animals—especially if you’re unable to purchase one.

 

 

How to Make an Add-On

  1. Choose an Exhibitor(s)
    Decide which participant(s) you would like to support.
  2. Select an Amount
    Add-ons can be made in any dollar amount.
  3. Submit Your Add-On
    Complete an add-on form (available at the Extension and Fair offices) and submit payment.

What Happens Next

  • Your full add-on amount goes directly to the exhibitor.
  • You do not take ownership of the animal.
