Re: freeze marking problems

[CAROL HEARD <carolheard@mcsi.net>]

Mine were also done in the late 70's with perfect
markings.  The only precaution we took was to roll a towel up under
the halter on the side of the brand so the horses didn't see the 'steam'
from the dry ice as it approached them. They all just stood there as if
nothing was going on.  I would really like to know who would be available
to do horses I have acquired since then, so if anyone is known to be available
in the pacific northwest, let me know.

be a relatively painless procedure for the horses as the skin gets so cold,
so fast, that the pain receptors are numb.
