The Livestock portion of the Montgomery County Fair & Rodeo features a series of junior livestock shows and contests where 4-H and FFA youth exhibitors present market and breeding animals — including barrows, lambs, goats, steers, and rabbits — for judging based on quality and market readiness. These events take place throughout the fair and include shows like Market Barrow, Market Lamb, Market Goat, Market Steer, Breeding Beef, and Rabbit Shows, giving young agriculturalists a platform to showcase their animal husbandry skills and hard work. The livestock division also ties into the Junior Livestock Auction, where top animals may be sold to benefit the exhibitors and support youth programs. Across these competitions, the fair celebrates agricultural education, community involvement, and the next generation of livestock producers.
