- Goat's name
- Goat's birth date and date the last photo was taken (to assure that they are entered in the correct class and so that the judge can see exactly how old they are in the photo)
- Class number you are entering your goat into
- Class description you are entering your goat into
- Owning ranch's name and location
- Website address (if applicable)
Send one (1) entry per e-mail (3 photos of one goat per e-mail).

Show Rules:
- Change in rules for 2014 - If your entry previously won a Virtual Show in its class or a championship, you will need to take new photos of the goat for this show, as well as future shows.
- Goats need not be registered, but must be 100% fainter.
- All 3 photos of the goat should qualify for the age class in which the goat is entered (ie, if entering 0 to under 3 months old, all 3 photos must have been taken before the goat was 3 months old).
- The photos do not need to be current, but should adhere to Rule #2.
- Bucklings under 3 months old that are scheduled to be wethered may be shown in the under 3 month old wether class. However, they may not be shown as a buck at a later date if the owner changes their mind about wethering it. They will be disqualified from future shows.
- Goats may be in a natural setting, or be set up by a handler as if in a show (which ever the exhibitor chooses).
- Photos may not contain ribbons or other awards received from previous shows.
- All photos need to be the owner's original copies and not copyrighted.
- By sending your photos and entering this contest, you are granting us permission to use the photos for this contest and to display them on this webpage.
- Entry Fee: $2 per goat.
- Photo entries and entry fees must be received by March 2, 2014. There will be no refunds.
