[RC] Horse Identification - apachepetraI haven't posted before but have been reading the posts for about a year. I am doing alot more traveling with my horses now that I am endurance riding and I am worryed about them getting lost or stolen when I am away from home. I have looked into getting my 2 horses microchipped. I thought that this was a fairly inexpensive procedure but when I talked to my wet she said that the chip alone costs them $75. Also if the horse gets lost or whatever most people don't have access to a scanner to see if the horse has a chip. Last weekend I had someone tell me that I should get my horses freeze branded. I had never even given this a thought. This way a person would be able to see the identification mark on the horse immediatly. I was curious if anyone had ever had this done to their horse and if it worked and they were happy and how expensive it was? I live in Minnesota. Does anyone have any other ideas for ways to have permenant identification for the horse if it gets lost or stolen?
