2026 4H Beef Weigh-in & Tattooing
The registration period has ended.
Kankakee County 4-H Beef Weigh-In & Tattoo
Saturday, January 31, 8:00 am
Kankakee County Fairgrounds
Register to let us know how many animals you will be bringing to our Beef Weigh-in and Tattooing! Also indicate if you need EID tags.
PLEASE NOTE: All beef animals will need an 840 EID tag to exhibit at the county fair 4-H shows. If your animal already has one, it does not need to be replaced; however, we will need to record the existing number.
It is best that animals not going to the 4-H Illinois State Fair already be tagged with the premise ID of your farm or location. All animals tagged by the office will have a premise ID linked to the state 4-H office. We do not have the premise ID information readily available if you will require that information for other non-4-H shows.
Please register by January 27.
Questions about weighing, tattooing, or tagging? Text or call beef superintendent Alex Benoit at 815-383-9726.
Please register each youth seperately, this is necessary for reporting.
Illinois Extension provides equal opportunities in programs and employment. If you need reasonable accommodations to participate in a program, please contact bud23@illinois.edu. Early requests are strongly encouraged to allow sufficient time for meeting your access needs.
