2014 NAPgA Rendy
OK peeps here is the deal on health certificates and what the vets need to do and why they should be at a reasonable price AND if you dont wanna do em.

First off, Oregon is a retarded state when it comes to health certificates as they require a permit number to be attached to the certificate. A certificate is good for 30 days. But Oregon only gives 15 days on the permit. So what does this mean? It means you have to get the certificate done no more then 15 days before the ending day you plan to have your animals in Oregon. This would cover your animals if someone asked to see their certificate during your stay. Though certificates are actually meant to cover you as you enter the state. So technically you could get away with 15 days before the day you enter Oregon and you would still be fine. So if you intend to have a certificate, it might be best to have it done on June 15th at the earliest to cover you all the way to the end of the rendy.

Next is what is a general health certificate and what does a vet do to check your animals and issue you one? All a vet has to do is do a VISUAL inspection of the animal needing a certificate. As long as there is no obvious sign of disease or infection or open sores, you animal would pass the inspection and be issued a general health certificate. Nanno has the price about right. A vet who wants to charge more then 10 dollars per goat for the check and to fill out the paperwork, is extorting you. We sent a shipment of 35 animals to California last year and Matt the vet only charged 100.00 for the check/paperwork and 25.00 for the farm call. So if you are not using a livestock vet, might look into others in your area. Feed stores will typically have good info on vets in the area. Gotta remember most livestock vets are mobile vets who dont have a place of work or even a phone number in the phone book. You can also do a craigslist ad asking if anyone knows of some livestock vets in your area. (((NOTE))) if you dont want an ear tag put into your animals ear, you will either need to have them tattooed OR micro chipped. So that information can be put onto the health certificate. This is so if someone is checking your animals, they can match the ID ear tag, tattoo or chip from the paper work to the animal.

Lastly, what if you dont what to get a health certificate? Then dont. Ill have to double check this tomorrow but at worst, they send you and your goats home or to a locale vet to get one. But this would require someone with the authority to happen to show up at the rendy and ask to see a certificate for your animals. Most if not nearly all Fish and Game officers would have no idea that a certificate would even be require to enter the state. Its just not something they deal with and isnt apart of their job. Oregon borders are not policed and there are no mandatory check points like there is at some places in say, California. We used to show goats in Oregon server times a year and getting a health certificate never even crossed ours or any of the other exhibitors minds for that matter. We also attend nationals when its within reason and again, no thought to a health certificate. In fact, most of the larger ADGA show herds who travel all across the country dont have them and its never been an issue. Anyone with the power or the want to see a certificate just isnt around.

So here is what I suggest. Contact some livestock vets. If you can find one that will do it at a decent price, do it. As you will be hauling them to the rendy, you should have the means to haul them into the vet OR if mobile go ahead and have him come out. Farm calls are almost always under 50.00. Get the general VISUAL inspection, get your certificate. If you dont want to spend the money on chips, check to see if the vet can do tattoos OR if you have a friend who can do em, do em a month or more before the rendy so they are healed and readable. No idea what a vet would charge but under 10.00 per would sound about right. Dont bother with the ear tags, being that close to the time of the rendy they will still be sore to the touch.
