We were up there too early, at 6:00, and our goats were the last to go. I think meat goats and calves and cattle go first. I'm not sure which order exactly. But it's not by how early you get there
The sooner anything but birds get checked in, the earlier they get shown. If you check them in an hour or so before the start, the only people likely to be bidding are the meat buyers. Bird buyers hang around.
