Setting up animal types is not necessary if your fair is integrated with 4-H Online, and you are using Animal ID in 4-H Online. However, if that is not true, you will need to set up animal types, either to capture animal information during the Animal ID process (if you use that prior to fair registration), the registration (entry) process, or during check-in at the fair.
Those animal types must also be attached to the correct division so that the right information is captured for each entry.
Please Note: If you are a fair that integrates with 4-H Online AND your state has Animal Types set up in 4-H Online, you will not need to create Animal Types in FairEntry. Read more: 4-H Online Animal Types in FairEntry
