Wednesday, October 23, 2024
As a reminder, the time is approaching for show swine to be getting ready for the winter and spring show season. Swine must be tested negative for Brucellosis and Pseudorabies on or after November 10 to be eligible to show through OYE without additional testing.
•Swine must test negative for Brucellosis and Pseudorabies on or after Sunday, Nov. 10, to be eligible to show through the Oklahoma Youth Expo (OYE) without additional testing requirements.
•At the time of testing, pigs must be identified with an electronic official ID tag, commonly known as 840 tags. Pigs must also be identified by age, sex, breed, ear notch and the Premises ID number of the location the pig is housed.
•To facilitate the collection/submission and testing process, we recommend the format in the pictures below for tube labeling and paperwork. Submitting loose tubes with lots of writing in a zip-lock bag causes significant delays in sorting and testing samples.
The fillable OADDL Swine Test Chart and shipping information can be found on our website, with the form replacing the old carbon copy version.
