[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 10692"] Although a brand inspector is at every sale in CA, a brand is not required. For that matter, a brand is rarely used there. Branding, except for those breeds that require it, is strictly a means of identification ownership. Location of the brand, ear notches and the brand itself make up the identification of the owners. Our brand was right rib, no ear notch. A brand is registered in and the rules of branding are governed by the state. I don't recall but it seems like it was good for 3 or 5 years and had to renewed each time. dun > I may be mistaken, but I thought > that in alot of states, especially > in the west, that you needed to > have them branded when they are > sold.
