All sheep and goats from SFCP enrolled flocks (Scrapie Flock
Certification Program) must be housed and handled such that
“direct contract” does not occur with sheep or goats from other
flocks of lower status. Spacing sufficient to prevent contact or
solid partitions may be used to maintain separation.
Pens must also be thoroughly cleaned and all organic material
must be removed before used by an animal from a SFCP flock.
When sheep and goats are being led around the show/sale ring
this would be considered acceptable “limited contact”.
All animals must be free of infectious and contagious
diseases and a statement of this (preprinted on the
CVI—requires veterinarian’s signature) is required on
the Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI). Animals
appearing unhealthy upon arrival may not enter
